Can't Crawl Site - but deducting crawls.
-
Why am I being deducted crawls if MOZ keeps telling me that it can't crawl my site?
-
Any time you initiate a crawl, it counts against your limits, even if something on the site is blocking us from crawling it. I would suggest that write into help@moz.com so we can help you diagnose what is blocking us from crawling your site.

Sometimes, when running a crawl on a site (or a section of a site), you may find that it isn’t progressing past the first level of URLs. When this happens, only the base domain, or “start URLs” are actually crawled

Moz unable to crawl my Zenfolio website
Hey guys, I am attempting to optimize a website for my wife's business but Moz is unable to crawl it. Zenfolio is the web hosting service (she is a photographer). The error message is: **Moz was unable to crawl your site on Apr 1, 2019. **Our crawler was not able to access the robots.txt file on your site. This often occurs because of a server error from the robots.txt. Although this may have been caused by a temporary outage, we recommend making sure your robots.txt file is accessible and that your network and server are working correctly. Typically errors like this should be investigated and fixed by the site webmaster. Read our troubleshooting guide. I did read the troubleshooting guide but nothing worked. My robots.txt file disallows a few bots, but not roger bot. Anyone have any idea what is going on? Or do I need to request server logs from Zenfolio? Thanks

Our crawler was not able to access the robots.txt file on your site
Hello Mozzers! I've received an error message saying the site can't be crawled because Moz is unable to access the robots.txt. I've spoken to the webmaster and he can't understand why the robot.txt can't be accessed in Moz. https://www.thefurnshop.co.uk/robots.txt and Google isn't flagging anything up to us. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Thanks

Duplicate Content after Moz Site Audit
Hello folks, So I signed up for the trial version of the Moz tool and ran an initial site audit. One of the site audit results is confusing me.
Getting Started | | jjimen03
It reports that there are two pages with duplicate content ( Each page has a duplicate page with duplicate content in it).
When I take a look at what those pages are, here is what I see: mysite.com/Contact-Us.html
mysite.com/contact-us.html
( The difference in the above is the Contact and Us, the first letters are capitalized on one of the URLS) mysite.com/index.html
mysite.com Now I am confused because for one thing, I don't have 2 Contact Us html files uploaded on my hosting server.
Why is Moz seeing 2 Contact Us pages? How to remove one? Regarding my home page, why is it flagging the same page as two different pages? How to remove of them?0 -
Can I use 2 Moz Campaigns to Track more than 3 Competitors?
I would like to track 6 competitors for a new client, maybe short term, maybe long term. Can I set up 2 Moz Campaigns for the same client using the same keywords only with different competitors?

I am new to MOZ, I set up one tracking campaign two weeks ago, I have tracked no keywords, I have done some keyword research for ranking difficulty and in two weeks I have already hit 50K pages crawled, I'm maxed out, is this common?
I am a startup and can't afford the higher plans yet. And even their highest plan is 600K pages crawled, which seems really low considering how lightly I used the tool and how quickly I hit 50K. Does anyone have any advice or information on how they use the tool on lower packages? Did I do something wrong to hit 50K pages crawled that fast? Does this pricing make any sense, it seems like an incredibly high price, I love the tool, any help is appreciated.

How do I update the crawl issues & Notifications?
I have a list of errors, most relating to missing meta descriptions. I have added a meta description to a page, visited the site and viewed the source, and the meta description is now there. When I go to analyze issues, the report it gives back for the link contains the same missing meta description as previously. How do I get it to update and realize the issue has been fixed?
