Roger Bot
-
Hi Mozzers,
I have a dev site that I want to run your crawl text on (Roger Bot) but I want to ensure the other engines don't crawl it.
What is the Robots.txt line that I need to make sure only Roger bot can get in and not Google etc?
Please advise
Thanks
Gareth

HI Gareth, Your robots.txt should look like this; User-agent: * Disallow: / User-agent: rogerbot Allow: /
-
User-agent: *
Disallow: /
User-agent: rogerbot
Allow: /

How do I redeem a tweet from Roger?
Last week, I reached over 100 mozPoints and I've been waiting by my virtual mailbox for days for a tweet from Roger. Level mozPoints Benefits **Aspirant - ** ** - 100 - 199** ** - A tweet from Roger (the week you reach 100 MozPoints)** The past few days have been sad. I've been moping around the office feeling terribly alone, wondering why I've received no Twitter based recognition for my efforts. The radio has been playing 'Careless Whisper' on repeat and it hasn't stopped raining outside. Can anyone help? (Attached an image of my sadness for reference) fYHP3

GOOGLE ANALYTIC SKEWED DATA BECAUSE OF GHOST REFERRAL SPAM ND CRAWL BOTS
Hi Guys, We are having some major problems with our Google Analytics and MOz account. Due to the large number of ghost/referral spam and crawler bots we have added some heavy filtering to GA. This seems to be working protecting the data from all these problems but also filtering out much needed data that is not coming through. In example, we used to get a hundred visitors a day at the least and now we are down to under ten. ANYBODY PLEASE HELP. HAVE READ THROUGH MANY ARTICLES WITH NO FIND TO PERMANENT SOLID SOLUTION (even willing to go with paid service instead of GA) Thank You so Much, S.M.

Have a Campaign, but only states 1 page has been crawled by SEOmoz bots. What needs to be done to have all the pages crawled?
We have a campaign running for a client in SEOmoz and only 1 page has been crawled per SEOmoz' data. There are many pages in the site and a new blog with more and more articles posted each month, yet Moz is not crawling anything, aside from maybe the Home page. The odd thing is, Moz is reporting more data on all the other inner pages though for errors, duplicate content, etc... What should we do so all the pages get crawled by Moz? I don't want to delete and start over as we followed all the steps properly when setting up. Thank you for any tips here.

Why SEOmoz bot consider these as duplicate pages?
Hello here, SEOmoz bot has recently marked the following two pages as duplicate: http://www.virtualsheetmusic.com/score/PatrickCollectionFlPf.html?tab=mp3 http://www.virtualsheetmusic.com/score/PatrickCollectionFlPf.html?tab=pdf I don't personally see how these pages can be considered duplicate since their content is quite different. Thoughts??!!

Will SEOMoz offer URL data relating to Bot visits
Does SEOMoz in the future plan to report on Bot visits for each URL, when they are spidered and when they appear in for example Google's index ?

SEOmoz bot and "noindex"
As a recent newbie to SEOmoz, I've been implementing some suggestions and doing a general tidy up. I removed URL's from our robots txt, and rolled out instead the noindex meta tag to pages we don't want indexed. But surprised to see issues that are now flagged from the last crawl by the moz bot from pages that have this meta tag? Does the SEOmoz bot not ignore this tag? Just want to make sure I've implemented it correctly, so the google bot does ignore it. Meta tag syntax is and is placed below the title tag. cheers Steve
