How to update a crawl
-
Hi
I crawled my site, it found lots of errors and warning which i have fixed, I told seomoz to recrawl, and it says nothing has changed... It defiantly has though!
How do I make it see these changes?

Hi! You can do a crawl test on up to 3000 pages at http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/crawl-test that should help you out!

I believe if you delete the campaign and then reinstate it you'll get the initial 200 page crawl immediately but it will still take a week or so for the full results to come back.
This was one of the first questions I asked when we first signed up with SEOmoz as we had a monster 5,000 errors on our site and cleaning them all up while waiting a week between updates took a while.
Perhaps if you e-mail SEOmoz they may initiate a re-crawl manually however I think the response may be that you need to wait until the next crawl date - Sorry.

Hi
Is there no way to initiate a new crawl?
If i delete the campaign and re-add will this do it?
Its another 5 days until the next cruel and my designer will be away from tomorrow.

Alas SEOmoz will only crawl once a week. If you go in to your campaign manager you should be able to see the last crawl date and the next scheduled crawl date.
For example, in my account I see
'
Last Crawl Completed: Nov. 30th, 2012 Next Crawl Starts: Dec. 6th, 2012''
I hope this helps!

To change or not to change. DO we update our HTTP page to HTTPS? especially those with basic forms (phone, email, name)??

Html and css errors - what do SE spiders do if they come across coding errors? Do they stop crawling the rest of the code below the error
I have a client who uses a template to build their websites (no problem with that) when I ran the site through w3c validator it threw up a number of errors, most of which where minor eg missing close tags and I suggested they fix them before I start their off site SEO campaigns. When I spoke to their web designer about the issues I was told that some of the errors where "just how its done" So if that's the case, but the validator still registers the error, do the SE spiders ignore them and move on, or does it penalize the site in some way?

Updating Old Posts
I have ~ 45 posts that I wrote 2-3 years ago that need to be updated with current information and I'm wondering if I should: Just update them Update them and change the date published to present day Publish the updated info. as a completely new post other? ... and why. I've read so many conflicting thoughts on this, really curious to hear what other Pro members think (or would do if it were them). To give a little more background, the topics of the posts are various retirement communities. Things that may have changed could be they added new amenities, new home types, prices, number of homes still available, etc. I have one page of my site that acts as sort of a directory linking to an article(post) for each community, but worried if I add all the updates as new posts I'll have to link to separate articles about each community which doesn't really make things too friendly for the reader. They want to know about what's going on with each community now...not back 3 years ago. Thoughts? Suggestions? Many thanks! Ryan

Crawl Diagnostics - Duplicate Content and Duplicate Page Title Errors
I am getting a lot of duplicate content and duplicate page title errors from my crawl analysis. I using volusion and it looks like the photo gallery is causing the duplicate content errors. both are sitting at 231, this shows I have done something wrong... Example URL: Duplicate Page Content http://www.racquetsource.com/PhotoGallery.asp?ProductCode=001.KA601 Duplicate Page Title http://www.racquetsource.com/PhotoGallery.asp?ProductCode=001.KA601 Would anyone know how to properly disallow this? Would this be as simple as a robots.txt entry or something a little more involved within volusion? Any help is appreicated. Cheers Geoff B. (a.k.a) newbie.
