My crawl report only shows 1 link
-
Hello, I've tried a crawl for the site www.doctify.co.uk and it's only returned 1 link in the report which is the homepage. Do you know what the issue could be?
Thanks,
Nina

Hi,
I don't want to insult you with to basic of an explanation so please tell me if this isn't what you mean and im over simplifying it.
Find a link on your website,
right click it and click on inspect element, this will bring up a developer panel at the bottom of your browser (its different for each browser, but there are all similar.) It will have the code that makes the link highlighted amongst the rest of the code that makes up the page.
For instance the "The Mission" link in your footer has this code
The mission<a ="" link="" tag<br="">href=""> = the URL parameter where the link should follow</a> = closing the tag where the link stops
Best SEO practice is
The missionYou should then take this 1 step further for best SEO and include a title parameter for the link which would look like this
The missionEdit: Can't spell

Hi again! I was wondering if you could tell me how you checked the link format on our site?
Many thanks,
Nina

Thank you ATP! But I think your response was very good! I think for now the important thing is that the pages are in fact indexed by google which is important but there seems to be an issue with the #! as you have also mentioned. Reading up on the link shared by Dirk about AJAX crawlability the #! in the URL's seem to also be the issue. The solution on there is Javascript function that's part of 'HTML5 History API' called window.history.pushState(). I think I will recommend this to the developers...

I think dirk covered it and i was way off Ignore this response

Thank you very much for the quick response Dirk.
Best,

All the links are in javascript - and Mozbot doesn't crawl javascript (Google does however). Try visiting your site with javascript disabled - all you see is a blank page.
There is a similar question herethat may be can help you finding a solution - try also this post on AJAX & crawlability
Hope this helps
Dirk

How Do I Troubleshoot 804 HTTPS Crawl Error?
In my Moz crawl report I get: Crawl Error
Moz Bar | | digium
Moz encountered an error on one or more pages on your site
Error Code 804: HTTPS (SSL) Error Encountered The Moz Help Section only says: 804 HTTPS (SSL) error 804 errors result from a site with misconfigured SSL software. If Moz's crawlers cannot correctly interpret an SSL response for a home page, the crawl ends immediately. My site is publicly accessible on https - https://www.respoke.io/ And I'm not seeing any issues with my certificate. Can anyone help me out? What steps can I take to troubleshoot this error? If SSL is misconfigured, how do I configure it properly?0 -
Q&A Question showing as answered when it is not
Yeh, that question at http://moz.com/community/q/onpage-grader-says-site-unreachable is not actually answered even though someone has marked it as such. Don't know how to mark it as not. Just annoying, as it may prevent someone else chime in with new information now I have updated it with some more info myself as I am just trying to get this resolved.

Is there a tool that works like crawl test that allows more than 3000 pages?
I enjoy using crawl test inside moz but I need to find a way to crawl all the pages on a site. It would probably be in the neighborhood of 10,000 urls. Does anyone know of a free tool and if not is there a paid tool that will do this?

Duplicate Home Page in Moz Report
I recently ran a crawl report in MOZ for www.laddersfree.co.uk and it has picked duplicate pages for my home page. The two pages are www.laddersfree.co.uk and www.laddersfree.co.uk The CMS System my developer is using is Concrete5. If you look at the source code there is a Canonical <link rel="<a class="attribute-value">canonical</a>" href="http://www.laddersfree.co.uk/" /> I am very confused as to why there are two pages picked up in the crawl. Can someone offer any advice please? Thank you. Jason
