MOZ Staff: Timeline for supporting SNI?
-
We have moved our blog to Amazon Web Services, and our website is soon to follow. For better or worse, AWS uses SNI, which MOZ doesn't currently support. Here are some recent forum posts about it:
- https://moz.com/community/q/804-server-error-crawling-https
- https://moz.com/community/q/804-https-ssl-error
This makes MOZ much, much less useful to me. MOZ staff, you have a timeline for when you'll implement support for SNI?

Hi MJ
Our new crawler has been released last week which supports SNI.
Check out our announcement here: https://moz.com/blog/new-site-crawl

Hello David,
Its over a year later. What is the current status?

Hi Lisa!
We have been adding campaigns to our beta for SNI which is now active in recent weeks. You can sign up here: https://moz.com/community/q/moz-pro-our-web-crawler-and-sites-that-use-sni

Hi, Matt. It's been a year; can you give me an ETA yet? MOZ is significantly less useful to us without this.
-
Hi Lisa! I'm afraid that at this point we really don't have any sort of ETA. It's definitely being worked on, though.
-
Thanks, David. Do you have an approximate ETA? 6 months? 2 years?
-
Hi Lisa!
We are already in the process of implementing SNI through writing a new crawler since we cannot simply update our existing one. This will take some time to build and I'm afraid I do not have an exact ETA for completion.
-
I've seen many people with SNI related issues. I am hoping Moz finds a way to work with it soon.

Moz Bar not providing any data. Tried logging out/back in and un/re-installing, but no dice.
Used Mozbar for a long time, and normally works fine. Suddenly finding that it is not providing any data. All of the fields are there, but it does not provide me with PA/DA, etc, and all social metrics are at 0. This is across all sites, not just on in particular. Have tried logging out and in, deactivating and activating, and reinstalling. Nothing has worked.

Keyword research in Moz - Am I missing something?…
I'm fairly new at SEO and am still trying out MOZ. I'm finding myself wishing that Moz had a broader set of tools for keyword research, but am wondering if maybe I'm just missing something. Am I correct in saying that there is no place within Moz that you can get keyword ideas, select/organize keywords, find new/related keywords? I've appreciated the keyword difficulty tool and have played around with Moz Analytics keyword tracking, but these don't help with the broader keyword research aspect. The various tutorials talk about using Google AdWords Keyword Planner and other tools to do that job. But with all that Moz can do, it just seems backwards to do lots of copying-pasting from other tools into Moz, or to have to rely on old excel spreadsheets to organize keywords. It seems that life would be much easier if Moz would be able to pull that kind of external research information in, like Raven does. That way you do most of your research within Moz – allowing you to organize/evaluate potential keywords BEFORE choosing the ones you would like to test for difficulty or track. That way you could simply select the desired keywords and add them to your tracked list. The way it is now, even the one research tool that Moz does have (keyword difficulty) does not allow for an easy way to track or manage a chosen set of keywords. For example, after doing some keyword difficulty analysis, I've chose 5 keywords. To add these 5 to the tracked keywords in a specific campaign I can't just select them and say "track keywords > in xxx campaign". From what I've understood, I must copy-and-paste them into the manage keyword section of the desired campaign. To me this all feels a bit awkward. But since I'm new at this, maybe I'm just missing something? Or maybe it's unrealistic to expect a single tool to address all my SEO needs?

Ajax #! URL support?
Hi Moz, My site is currently following the convention outlined here: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/174992?hl=en Basically since pages are generated via Ajax we are setup to direct bots that replace the #! in a url with ?escaped_fragment to cached versions of the ajax generated content. For example, if the bot sees this url: http://www.discoverymap.com/#!/California/Map-of-Carmel/73 it will replace it will instead access the page: http://www.discoverymap.com/?escaped_fragment=/California/Map-of-Carmel/73 In which case my server serves the cached html instead of the live page. This is all per Googles direction and is indexing fine. However the MOZ bot does not do this. It seems like a fairly straight-forward feature to support. Rather than ignoring the hash, you look to see if it is a #! and then try to spider the url replaced with ?escaped_fragment. Our server does the rest. If this is something MOZ plans on supporting in the future I would love to know. If there is other information that would be great. Also, pushstate is not practical for everyone due to limited browser support, etc. Thanks, Dustin Updates: I am editing my question because it won't let me respond to my own question. It says I need to sign up for MOZ analytics. I was signed up for Moz Analytics?! Now I am not? I responded to my invitation weeks ago? Anyway, you are misunderstanding how this process works. There is no site-map involved. The bot reads this URL on the page: http://www.discoverymap.com/#!/California/Map-of-Carmel/73 And when it is ready to spider the page for content it, it spider's this URL instead: http://www.discoverymap.com/?escaped_fragment=/California/Map-of-Carmel/73 The server does the rest, it is simply telling Roger to recognize the #! format and replace it with ?escaped_fragment Though I obviously do not know how Roger is coded but it is a simple string replacement. Thanks.

Duplicate Page Content Report on MOZ
Hi, I am just wondering as to the accuracy of this report - does it pick up all the duplicate on page content? Or is there a limit? We have an ecommerce store with a lot of copied and pasted descriptions - just wondering if there is a limit on how much the moz crawler picks up? In other words, once we fix what MOZ has detected, will there be more detected because it is limited to display say up to 200?? Hope you understand what I mean. Thanks
