Site Crawl Status code 430
-
Hello,
In the site crawl report we have a few pages that are status 430 - but that's not a valid HTTP status code. What does this mean / refer to?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes#4xx_Client_errorsIf I visit the URL from the report I get a 404 response code, is this a bug in the site crawl report?
Thanks,
Ian.

Which, of course, you can't do in Shopify.
Maybe we should just collectively get on Shopify to implement this by default.

It's all in this help document:
https://moz.com/help/moz-procedures/crawlers/rogerbot
"Crawl Delay To Slow Down Rogerbot
We want to crawl your site as fast as we can, so we can complete a crawl in good time, without causing issues for your human visitors.
If you want to slow rogerbot down, you can use the Crawl Delay directive. The following directive would only allow rogerbot to access your site once every 10 seconds:
User-agent: rogerbot
Crawl-delay: 10"
So you'd put the specified rule in your robots.txt file

This is happening to a client of mine too. Is there a way to set my regular MOZ Pro account to crawl the site slower?

This is a common issue with Shopify hosted stores, see this post:
It seems to be related to crawling speed. If a bot crawls your site too fast, you'll get 430s.
It may also be related to the proposed, 'additional' status code 430 documented here:
"430 Request Header Fields Too Large
This status code indicates that the server is unwilling to process the request because its header fields are too large. The request MAY be resubmitted after reducing the size of the request header fields."
I'd probably look at that Shopify thread and see if anything sounds familiar

@Angler - yeah thought the same - but why not log it as a 403 in the report. The site is hosted on Shopify - so don't get access to logs unfortunately.
Was wandering if it was related to rate limiting as in a few cases it's a false positive and page loads fine.
Have emailed Eli - thanks,
Best.
Ian.

Still no invite to site crawl beta! Why bother?
Well, I was informed that I was en-queue to be invited to the Moz Site Crawl v2. I have several client sites making use of SNI b/c, well... CDN's. What is the point of telling me I may receive an invitation shortly, then hearing nothing back and not being able to crawl their sites... this makes this service 100% useless as I can simply use a couple of different tools (free) to perform the same tasks... don't get me wrong... I would rather use Moz and this is not intended to flame the service as I think it could be great... if only it worked. I cannot justify the lack of response, nor the lack of service (what we intended to use here) for the price. It seems like this is simply a waiting game wherein Moz expects me to pay for this service and THEN I will receive my invite? Is it at all possible that anyone can look into this and/or my invite status. If I cannot sample these features before long, you've lost a solid potential client. (Not my loss)

Moz has stopped crawling my site
Hello, We have been using Moz Pro for over a year on our site and in the last month noticed that our site is not being crawled anymore. I took a look in Google Search Console, and everything seems to be fine there, so I think it is just the Moz tool that is not working. Has anyone else experienced this? Are there any tips for troubleshooting it? Thank you, Adam

SEO Campaign for testing site?
We are in the process of a website redesign and have initiated an SEO campaign on the current site to set benchmarks. Does it make sense for us to run a separate SEO campaign on the testing site as well? Michelle

Link to Moz Pro home 404s, and then I stumbled upon Moz's staging site...
I'm wary of giving more information as it's probably best that little to no one be able to access Moz staging for one reason or another. I should also mention that this was done very unintentionally on my part. That said, from the 404 from Moz Pro home, I tried to access "My QA", and that's when I realized that everything I did thereafter was within staging.moz.com (and posted a question similar to this one). Does Moz permit access to their staging site, or did I stumble upon a mistake - or Moz-stake, if you will?
