Crawl went from a few errors to thousands when I added Blog
-
I am new here. I recently got the errors from SEOmoz crawl on my site down to just a handful from a couple hundred. So I took the leap and moved my blog to www.mysitename.com/blog (which I see recommended here) and now my errors are in the thousands.
My blog which was a separate url has pages back to 2007.
I am not sure if it is appropriate to post my site url in a question here?
One error that really stands out is this:
Description
<dd>Using rel=canonical suggests to search engines which URL should be seen as canonical.</dd>
On my root page I have:
rel="canonical" href="http://www.mysitename.com"/>
Thanks for any help...

Thats not the ones you get with a pro account, but it prooably does much the same.
I use the Bing SEO Toolkit to crawl your site. But SEOMoz should find much the same

Can you tell me where to look for SEOMoz list of broken links?
-
I found over 300 broken links, that was only a sample, i would suggest there is many more.
Hiow many did SEOMoz report.

removed link name
-
What is the URL i will tell you if they are real of not.
-
Yes it is a "notice", so it is just information to me not an error.
Thank you!
I also have several 404 Red Status Codes any idea what these are?
I read the recent posts about them and that they may disappear on a future crawl...

This canonical error is a notive not a error correct?
if so it is just letting you know they are there, it is important you dont have canonicals in pages and not know.
Canonicals in every page pointing to itself was seen as a good idea to help protect against screen scaping, but recently Bing has said that it is a incorrect use and that they will lose trust in your canonicls if used in this way.

Crawl results on keyword rankings differ from actual search rankings
For the second week in a row, the weekly keyword rankings in my MOZ account show "not in top 50" for most keywords. However, when I check some of my rankings I still broadly have the rankings that I used to have. It seems that the MOZ crawl is experiencing some difficulties. Does anyone have suggestions how to find out what's going on? If I can't rely on the crawl outcomes, then the tool is not very useful anymore!

No follow links also been reported in SEOmoz crawl diagnostics
Hi, Why does SEOmoz reports links which has been marked as 'nofollow'. I am getting 'Overly-Dynamic URL' reports on links which I have designated as nofollow which means Google will discount them. So why does SEOmoz still report them. Thanks.

Weird client errors . . .
SeoMoz is reporting a number of weird client errors. The 404 links all look like the following: http://www.bluelinkerp.com/http%3A/www.bluelinkerp.com/corporate/cases/Nella.asp What might be causing these weird links to be picked up? I couldn't find any way within the SEOmoz interface to track down the source of these links . . .

Websites First Crawl - Over 2 Hour Suggested Wait
Hello SEOMoz! We recently signed up for a free trial and on the pro dashboard it states the following. "To get you started quickly Roger is crawling up to 250 pages on your site. You should see these results within two hours. The full crawl will complete within 7 days." It's been nearly 24 hours and we see no results under Crawl Diagnostics however we do under rankings. Is this normal? Thanks

SEOMoz's Crawl Diagnostics showing an error where the Title is missing on our Sitemap.xml file?
Hi Everyone, I'm working on our website Sky Candle and I've been running it as a campaign in SEOmoz. I've corrected a few errors we had with the site previously, but today it's recrawled and found a new error which is a missing Title tag on the sitemap.xml file. Is this a little glitch in the SEOmoz system? Or do I need to add a page title and meta description to my XML file. http://www.skycandle.co.uk/sitemap.xml Any help would be greatly appreciated. I didn't think I'd need to add this. Kind Regards Lewis
