    Hello guys and gals,

    This is a very odd one, I've a client's website and most of the crawlers I'm using are giving me weird/ wrong results.

    For now lets focus on screaming frog, when I crawl the site it will list e.g. meta titles as missing (not all of them though), however going into the site the title is not missing, and Google seems to be indexing the site fine. The robots.txt are not affecting the site (I've also tried changing the user agent).

    The other odd thing is SF gives a 200 code but as a status tells me "connection refused" even though it's giving me data.

    I'm unable to share the clients site, has any one else seen this very odd issue? And solutions for it?

    Many thanks in advanced for any help,

          Cheers for the tweet Andy.

          Chris, I'd recommend running through this list here in our FAQ -

          http://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/faq/#17

          In particular, I'd recommend reducing the crawl speed & adjusting the user-agent.

          You can also pop it through to our support (http://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/support/) & we can advise. All confidential etc.

          Cheers

          Dan

              Hi Chris

              This is hard to answer without an example - do you have a URL or two that you can share with the community?

              Thanks so much!

                Google Site search operator showing different results than Search Console

                Hey everybody, I am seeing some confusing results. I am seeing that in the back of our Search Console we are showing around 4,500 sites indexed. If I use the "site" operator in google, only 2820 show up... any thoughts as to why that happens?

                Should I set blog category/tag pages as "noindex"? If so, how do I prevent "meta noindex" Moz crawl errors for those pages?

                From what I can tell, SEO experts recommend setting blog category and tag pages (ie. "http://site.com/blog/tag/some-product") as "noindex, follow" in order to keep the page quality of indexable pages high. However, I just received a slew of critical crawl warnings from Moz for having these pages set to "noindex." Should the pages be indexed? If not, why am I receiving critical crawl warnings from Moz and how do I prevent this?

                Woocommerce filter urls showing in crawl results, but not indexed?

                I'm getting 100's of Duplicate Content warnings for a Woocommerce store I have. The urls are 
                 etc These don't seem to be indexed in google, and the canonical is for the shop base url. These seem to be simply urls generated by Woocommerce filters. Is this simply a false alarm from Moz crawl?

                Hi How long aproximately does G take to pass authority via a 301 from an old page to its new replacement page ? Does Moz Page Authority reflect this in its score once G has passed it ? All Best

                White Label Version of Moz Pro?

                I may have missed it, but is there a white label option for Moz Pro? I have a few clients that would like to login and have a look at competition, rankings, etc. Perhaps something like WebCEO or MySEOtool?
