Why isn't seo moz properly crawling my site?
-
In my campaign results, only 2 pages have been crawled, when there are many more. Also, when I do the on-page evaluation for my homepage and the main keyword, I get a grade of F, with a ton of errors that my page actually does not have. It's as if SEO moz is having trouble crawling through my site.
Any ideas on this?

Do you mind posting your URL so we can have a loot at it?

Thanks for the replies, but it never got past 2 pages crawled. I have no idea why this is. I got a message saying it may have something to do with user-agent discrimination, but I googled that and there's actually no one talking about it on the internet.
Google isn't indexing my site either. It's not a robots.txt problem, I've had that looked at. The only thing that has changed is that I upgraded the site from cscart v3 to v4. Not sure how that could change anything.

Yeah i'd give it a week. It will tell you on your campaign exactly when the next full-crawl is scheduled for. Wait for this date if you haven't already.
Otherwise contact their support team. The Moz team is quick to respond and a helpful bunch. Just don't call them SEOMoz or Rand will track you down and give you a frowny-face.

Hi -
Is it the Initial Crawl or Full Crawl ?
If its initial crawl, may be you should wait for the final crawl report. However, just a query - have you checked like - Are your pages not getting blocked by meta noindex or through robots tag... What are the sort of errors you getting

Why can I see 404 pages in Google Analytics but nothing in the On-Demand Crawl?
Hello, I'm looking at some Google Analytics data for a website and can see a few 'Page not found's among the Page Titles, looking like these are 404 errors. To get a full list of what's 404-ing so I can get these redirected, the Moz on-demand crawl of the website has come back with no major errors and just a few metadata ones. Does anyone know any potential reasons why the audit has drawn a blank, and is there another way to get a comprehensive list of 404s, as I'm aware the Google Analytics data may not be covering all of them. Thanks very much Becky

How does a non-traditional TLD impact Moz's crawl test?
I have a client who moved from a .com to .academy domain 6 months ago, and their current crawl tests are coming back with a universal page authority of 1, along with 0 indexed backlinks. The previous version of the site had an average page authority of 35-40, the site architecture and content are nearly identical, and there are no other errors or red flags in the crawl report that would hold back their organic rankings. In fact, looking at the site's analytics account, I can see dozens of sites that provide current and properly functioning backlinks, non of which are listed on the crawl test. So the question is - is Moz currently unable to properly crawl a .academy (or any other non-traditional TLD) site, or is there some deeper issue with the site's SEO that I'm not seeing? Thanks!

Why RogerBot can't crawl site https://unplag.com
Hello Please help me to solve the problem. The on-page grader and Crawl Test are not working for Unplag.com website. Both said that they can't access the url. Yes, I've tried different variants like unplag.com, http://unplag.com One more thing - RogerBot was disallowed in robots.txt file. I deleted it from the file a week ago so maybe moz index haven't been renewed.

Monthly Data Option not appearing in Moz AGAIN
Hello Again, It's a real shame that I seem to come to this forum to only complain about your product again and again. I remember a time when I used to really respect this company, but your tool is absolutely abysmal. Anyway, my latest issue (to add to the pile) is that campaigns that have been in my account for almost 2 months STILL do have options for me to make monthly reports on. What's wrong now? Edit: I just checked the date I added these profiles, it was around the end of last month, so one and a half months ago.

Error for a page that doesn't exist.
Hi, I'm just trailing this service, and I have a couple of questions that I hope someone can help with. 1. I am getting a high priority error regarding a page not being able to be crawled - a 4XX error. Problem is, there is no such page in existence. The URL is my site/comments/feed It's driving me crazy. 2. I'm also getting errors based on missing meta tags in blog posts. I am adding tags at the time of posting, so I am unsure why these errors are showing up. Actually, I didn't add tags to all posts - but there are errors on ALL posts, even those I added tags to. Any help would be wonderful. Thanks!!! Hugh

Moz Crawl Test: Referrer is sitemap.gz?
Hi,
Moz Bar | | Titan552
I'm looking at a crawl test report, and I'm seeing that most of the pages have the sitemamp.gz file listed as the referrer. As I recall in my other reports the referrer is usually the root domain - unless of course there's a redirect. Does having sitemap.gz as the referrer indicate a problem? If so, what problem does it indicate? Thanks!0 -
Screaming Frog, Moz and other crawlers
Hi Ignorant question, but is it possible to use Screaming Frog or the Moz crawler or any other reputable crawler for a site still in development i.e. it is yet to be indexed? If so, could someone provide some quick instructions on how this can be done. Thanks in advance for any support. Neil
