Crawl Diagnostics Shows thousands of 302's from a single url. I'm confused
-
Hi guys I just ran my first campaign and the crawl diagnostics are showing some results I'm unfamiliar with..
In the warnings section it shows 2,838 redirects.. this is where I want to focus.
When I click here it shows 5 redirects per page. When I go to click on page 2, or next page, or any other page than page 1 for that matter... this is where things get confusing. Nothing shows.
Downloading the csv reveals that 2,834 of these are all showing:
URL: http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php
url: http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php
referrer: http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php
location_header: http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php
I guess I'm just looking for an explanation as to why it's showing so many to the same page and what possible actions can be taken on my part to correct it (if needed).
Thanks in advance

its difficult to tell without knowing how you set up these 302 redirects. This specific URL returns a 404 page and does not redirect to anything which may contribute to the False attribute.
Have you considered just doing a 301 redirect for these pages?

Thanks Derek. You are correct and I apologize for not being clearer. Here is a single row from the csv output below. I also included a screenshot of the entire row with the headers so you know what you're looking at..
http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE TRUE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE FALSE 302 text/html; charset=UTF-8 http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php 0 2012-09-06T13:03:37Z 0 0 0 0 http://www.mydomain.com/401/login.php

If these were in the warning section, then these are temporary redirects, correct? Can you provide a screen shot?

Moz Crawl Report more urls?
Hi. I have used Moz Crawl Test and get my 3,000 urls crawled no issue. However, my site has more than that, is it possible to crawl the entire website? Alot of the crawl urls in the Moz test are search string urls and filters so Ive probably wasted about 2,500 urls on filter urls. Any advise or alternative software that wont cost a fortune?

Why is OSE showing no data for this URL?
Hi all, Does anyone have any ideas as to why OSE might not have any data for this URL: http://www.ccisolutions.com/StoreFront/product/shure-slx24-sm58-wireless-microphone-system-j3 It is not a new page at all. It's been on the site for years. Is OSE being quirky? Or is there an underlying problem with this page? Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this, Dana

No data showing in SiteExplorer
For this site: www.cooperator.biz/ I see no backlinks in SEO Moz Open SiteExplorer but Majestic SEO is showing 13 unique domains linking to it. I regularly encounter zero data for sites that I know have backlinks, why is this? If it's a problem with crawling them, why would I continue to use SEO Moz when other SEO services are showing me links? Kind regards, Rich

Does Open Site Explorer violate Google's Terms of service?
According to Google's Webmaster Guidelines: "Don't use unauthorized computer programs to submit pages, check rankings, etc. Such programs consume computing resources and violate our Terms of Service." Does that mean Open Site Explorer is a violation of those Terms of Service, or is it authorized?

Open Site Explorer Missing URL's
I see a link to my site on a couple different url's, but they are not listed in OSE. The links have been active for a long time too. Does OSE not track all inbound links from all sites? Thanks, Stephen

On the Crawl Diagnostics Summary, its reporting over 100 "Title Missing or Empty" issues, but they all check out fine?
Wondering if there Is a bug with the crawler or known timeout issues? Site speed is fast, but we do run a couple of large cron jobs out of hours, which may be the cause of any timeouts, but shouldn't the crawler report that, rather saying no title tags on 100 pages, when there are? SEOmoz newbie, so still finding my feet 🙂
