Hey Josh!
With the latest increase of crawl limits for all campaign, unfortunately the lowest is set for 10,000. If you have less than 10,000 pages then we will only crawl the total amount of pages you have. Takeshi has great tips on excluding certain pages from being crawled in robots.txt
Our user-agent is rogerbot so an example would be
User-agent: rogerbot
Disallow: /categories/Hope this helps!

Yes I am talking about pages crawled.

Kind of what I was wondering. I think this is a product deal, since they referenced 10000.

Hi Josh!
Thanks for posting in Q&A! Just to clarify, are you referring to your _pages _crawled in Moz Analytics?
-
Are you asking about crawls or indexation?
I can't think of any reason why you would want to decrease crawls, but you could probably do so by getting backlinks removed, blocking sections of your site from being crawled through robots.txt or nofollow links, and decreasing the change frequency in your xml sitemaps.

How to see SERPs the way that moz sees SERPs
I'm getting to grips with the New Keyword Explorer. I've found that one of my top keyword phrases has a 'Featured Snippet' result. However I'm struggling to see it in my own browser. Is there a clean way of viewing SERPs un enhanced by history, location etc? I'd also like to see the other SERPs features - is that possible? I'd like to be able to see the results as Moz clearly can view them! Thank you Mozers C09Fb

Local Search Clean up Done. Now Best Way to Index?
I have spent hours doing some local search clean up and have a list of all the URLs to index, about 75. Is there a place I can dump these to get them all indexed quickly or do I have to wait for the hand of Google to come down and bless me with indexing. I don't want to dump all these to Google +, Facebook, or Twitter; that would just be wrong. Any ideas for fast indexing. I want them to all get indexed before the business address changes in a couple years 🙂

What is the best way to optimise the website of a service area business websites for local search?
Service area businesses are a little caught in the middle when it comes to local optimisation and can really struggle to So what approaches would your recommend for optimising a service area business: Assuming the following, perhaps obvious, goals: Make sure your site visitors can clearly understand if their location is covered by your service areas Compete for search traffic for service + location searches (including those with an implided location). One common tactic that I see being used is to generate humongous lists of locations, maybe in a footer. Obviously the more areas you want to include the less relevant (and more spammy looking) your targetting looks. And of course, with loads of locations, you're not going to be able to get them all into your titles (even if you wanted to!) Maybe if you've got locations that are more inportant to you you might create specific landing pages for these location? If you've got the kind of business where the locations you target are determined by the locations you can reasonably get to during a working day it's really tough to find a realistic way to target specific location on your site. I'd be really interested to hear how you approach these kinds of sites.

What is the best way to internally link via images?
What is the best way to internally link via images? I have a website about shoes with all different brands. Let's say I'm trying to rank for "ABC sandals", and on the ABC page I have a "related brands" section with 4 logos of related sandal brands, linking to their respective page. Currently the alt text of the logos is "XYZ Logo" with the link title text "XYZ." Would it be beneficial to have change either the image alt text, or the link title text, or both to "XYZ sandals"?

Quick ways of finding out of date / inconsistent citations
Hi fellow mozzers! We are currently relaunching our website and are in the process of ensuring all our local citations are up to date and consistent. In doing so, I've noticed that there are still countless listings under our old address, which probably isn't doing our local rankings a whole world of good! I have been hunting these down by searching "company name" "old address" to bring up any references, but I wondered if there was a tool to find these quicker, in the same way Whitespark finds citation sources to begin with? Similarly, is there a tool that flags up listings that have the correct NAP info, but that has maybe been formatted differently enough so as to cause consistency probs? Thanks all!
