Campaign Not Crawling
-
I set up my first 5 campaigns and one is not crawling beyond one-page. It's been over 48 hours.
This site has nearly 3.500 pages the others much less, however, this shouldn't make any difference.
I searched for the problem and couldn't find it so I hope this question isn't redundant.
Comments and advice would be appreciated.

OOHH-LA-LA
That pesky Amazon cloud. Maybe a big Bingo. I will remove the blocked IPs from Amazon hosting. I had someone from those IPs slamming Google Ads so I blocked a big range all related to Amazon.
If the problem exists I'll reconstitute the block but for now let's see if removing them helps.
OK - I removed the motherload of IPs and I will come back and respond to the result after about 48 hours or sooner if I see positive results.
UPDATE: After removing the blocked IPs the site was crawled the max 10K pages.
UPDATE 2: The Adsense slammer returned under several different Amazon Cloud IPs so I had to block the full range again as I don't want to get banned by Google. No money registered only numerous ad clicks. This is unacceptable so I won't crawl this site.
Thanks,
Don

Hi Don,
So sorry to hear about the problems. Check out this help topic addressing what to do when only one page is crawled. If that doesn't solve your problem, send an email to help@seomoz.org

Ah, ok, sorry - I misread your question Don.
I think I had the same problem with a campaign for a while, luckily it wasn't urgent so I left it, but it took a while to sort itself out

Hi Shelly:
The other 4 campaigns look to have gone through that starter crawl just fine, ergo, my question about that 5th campaign. I suppose if I don't see any action in a couple of more days I will indeed direct a question to the SEOMoz team but will leave this question open for a while also.
Thanks.

As I understand it, it takes a week for a complete crawl to be carried out on any new campaigns, but you now get a starter crawl when setting up a campaign - the starter crawl isn't as comprehensive and may explain why your sites haven't been crawled properly yet.
It may be worth directing a request to the SEOMoz team via the help function

Do the SEOmoz Campaign Reports follow Robots.txt?
Hello, Do the SEOmoz Campaign Reports (that track errors and warnings for a website) follow rules I write in the robots.txt file? I've done all that I can to fix the legitimate errors with my website, as reported by the fabulous SEOmoz tools. I want to clean up my pages indexed with the search engines so I've written a few rules to exclude content from Wordpress tag URLs for instance. Will my campaign report errors and warnings also drop as a result of this?

Import Keywords from 1 campaign to another
Hi There, I've got one campaign set up and just created another in my dashboard. I have roughly 300 keywords added and categorized in campaign 1. I want to export these exact keywords, (and to also remain categorized the same), into campaign 2. How can I do this without having to add each keyword individually and recreating the categories again? Basically, I want to export my keywords/copy/past from one campaign, to another. I don't want to set everything up again. How can I do this? Thanks, Reena.

Initial Crawl Questions
Hello. I just joined and used the Crawl tool. I have many questions and hoping the community can offer some guidance. 1. I received an Excel file with 3k+ records. Is there a friendly online viewer for the Crawl report? Or is the Excel file the only output? 2. Assuming the Excel file is the only output, the Time Crawled is a number (i.e. 1305798581). I have tried changing the field to a date/time format but that did not work. How can I view the field as a normal date/time such as May 15, 2011 14:02? 3. I use the ™ symbol in my Title. This symbol appears in the output as a few ascii characters. Is that a concern? Should I remove the trademark symbol from my Title? 4. I am using XenForo forum software. All forum threads automatically receive a Title Tag and Meta Description as part of a template. The Crawl Test report shows my Title Tag and Meta Description as blank for many threads. I have looked at the source code of several pages and they all have clean Title tags and I don't understand why the Crawl Report doesn't show them. Any ideas? 5. In some cases the HTTP Status Code field shows a result of "3". Why does that mean? 6. For every URL in the Crawl Report there is an entry in the Referrer field. What exactly is the relationship between these fields? I thought the Crawl Tool would inspect every page on the site. If a page doesn't have a referring page is it missed? What if a page has multiple referring pages? How is that information displayed? 7. Under Google Webmaster Tools > Site Configurations > Settings > Parameter Handling I have the options set as either "Ignore" or "Let Google Decide" for various URL parameters. These are "pages" of my site which should mostly be ignored. For example a forum may have 7 headers, each on of which can be sorted in ascending or descending order. The only page that matters is the initial page. All the rest should be ignored by Google and the Crawl. Presently there are 11 records for many pages which really should only have one record due to these various sort parameters. Can I configure the crawl so it ignores parameter pages? I am anxious to get started on my site. I dove into the crawl results and it's just too messy in it's present state for me to pull out any actionable data. Any guidance would be appreciated.
