How do i stop Moz from indexing my dev site?
-
Hey,
I am new to MOZ, and I am seeing in my page reports that I have duplicate content, but this duplicate content is mostly my development site. dev.domain.com. I have this blocked in robots.txt for google.
How do i stop MOZ including it in its reports?
Cheers everyone.

Hello,

Guys i need help as i'm getting this message "**Moz was unable to crawl your site on Dec 26, 2017. **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."

Moz Not Pulling Monthly Data
So I set up my Moz campaigns on the 8th of this month. I can see data for the week, however, I can't see data from the previous week or for the month. So my question has two parts: a.) Is there a way to view data for the previous week, and b.) when can I expect to see data for the entire month. Seeing data for the entire month is absolutely critical for me, since this is what I'm going to use to prepare my monthly client reports. Has anyone experienced anything like this? PLEASE HELP!!!
