"redirects" with no "redirect address"?
-
Episode 2 of "Damon the idiot noob" web series . . .
I have like . . ..90 plus temporary redirects in my moz "medium priority diagnostics".
But the majority of them have a url, but no redicret url.
How can it be a temporary redirect if there is no redirect address?
Some of the addresses simply don't make any sense. Like:
http://www.thirdcoastsigns.com/catalog/seo_sitemap/product
How on earth would a "seo_sitemap" be followed my a "/product"?
This is a Magento site, so I know some of these things get created automatically . .. but what on earth is going on here?
Help welcome, appreciated, and welcome.
Did I mention it is welcome and appreciated?

Well, I think Charles may have summed it up, that it is just some CMS wonkiness . . . though I was sorta hoping there was a more concrete answer/solution than that.

Hi Damon! Ever work this out?

First, I got confused, then confused, and confused again.

Magento is a keyword there. Any CMS does some super crazy stuff. Some more crazy than others.
Or it can be temporary MOZ bug. I'd recommend check those urls manually with preserving log in Chrome or something. This way you'll be able to understand if it's actually happening or it's just crawlers fault. If you don't see anything abnormal happening while checking those urls manually, don't waste much time on it, especially those pages seem not to exist or not main pages of the website.
As MOZ says, it's medium priority, there are other things to worry about.Hope this helps.

If I have set up my www as a cname, do I still need to add a redirect?
Hello, I am trying to minimize my redirect chains that have been popping up in my Moz crawl issues. So I'd like to get clear on some best practices. I have a few clients that are getting their first redesign in a while. We are moving into Wordpress from good ole .html files. So I've installed a redirection plug in to create 301 redirects for those .html versions of the pages. But apparently I am already redirecting from www to non-www. I have the www set up as a CNAME going to the IP address - is that counting as the redirection? Sometimes though, the www is set up by making it an A record. Is one way better than the other? Finally, I'm forcing https for all my new sites now. Is whatever the host does to "force" https also counting as a redirect and contributing to my chain? Any advice will be appreciated!

How could I improve my "brand" and "mentions" using the Moz tool?
Hello I am a bit stuck on what to put into this section of MOZ. As you can see from the attached image I have setup to catch any mention of my business name and root url. But beyond that I am uncertain of what to use to monitor who is talking about us. I'm also uncertain of what other abilities or usefulness this function would have. aOq7wVg.png

Is there a whitelist of the RogerBot IP Addresses?
I'm all for letting Roger crawl my site, but it's not uncommon for malicious spiders to spoof the User-Agent string. Having a whitelist of Roger's IP addresses would be immensely useful!
