    Hello there,

    I'm using Moz for a while and I'm very pleased with the tool and community. But for the first time I encountered a problem. We are trying to run a crawler for a client's website but only one page (only the homepage) was crawled.

    We tried to do a test on a more detailed level (maybe there is something wrong with the homepage). My campaign test's crawl came back for the Producten folder (level deeper than homepage), and it was also only a 1 page crawl with a 200 status. I did look at the robots.txt file now, and it is very restrictive, but there is nothing that I can clearly see that would explain why the crawl isn't working.

    Hopefully someone can point us at the right direction.

    Thanks in advance,

    Jeremy

      Hey Jeremy,

      I took a look at your campaign and it looks like Lynn's suggestion that Javascript may be blocking the crawl is correct. Unfortunately, our crawler isn't sophisticated enough to parse Javascript and all of the links from the homepage are hidden within the Javascript navigation so we aren't able to find them to crawl past the homepage. I'm afraid it looks like our crawler isn't compatible with this particular site.

      I apologize for the inconvenience this causes! Please let me know if I can help you with anything further.

          Hi,

          It can happen for a number of reasons, in my experience usually due to either unintentional blocking of the page from crawling or from being a JavaScript heavy/only site which doesn't allow content to be easily read by the moz crawler. Check out this dev blog post for a rundown on most issues and solutions. Hope it helps!

            Unsolved New Moz Bar not working in my domain

            moz bar

            Hello, I have installed the new version of Moz Bar in Google Chrome.
            My problem is that it analyzes all domains except mine: https://elchesemueve.com
            I also can't find my country (Spain) to configure the site.

            Is Moz more accurate than Ahrefs ?

            When I check my this website https://joinpakarmy.com.pk/  on Moz it gives me DA 3
            But when I check it out on Ahrefs, it tells me there is no authority for this site.
            So who is more accurate in the result?
            thanks

            How do you use Moz to research related topics?

            Like most of the folks here I'm a pretty big fan of the content that comes out through Whiteboard Fridays, and I try to apply the things I learn, but one of the WBF videos that I'm following along with does not do a stellar job of detailing execution using Moz KW Explorer. https://moz.com/blog/related-topics-in-seo-whiteboard-friday Now granted, this came out in 2016, but I still feel the core principle and strategy results in a higher quality piece of content and is still relevant to discovering and understanding searcher task completion requirements, and drafting content that fulfills those requirements. Towards the end Rand sort of mentions that you'll be able to do this with KW explorer, but I'm not really seeing the functionality. The steps I followed were to enter in the keyword in kw explorer, went to keyword suggestions, and selected "based on closely related topics" and ran it, but received no suggestions - came up blank. I then selected "based on broadly related topics" and the same thing happened. I tried this out with the keyword r22, keeping it very broad to start but that didn't seem to work. So what do you all do to perform this sort of research within Moz? Or do you even feel it's relevant in today's Rank Brain driven world?

            Need to solve "Oops our crawlers were unable to access" url for new campaign

            I'm putting the url designfirstkitchenandbath.com and getting the "oops! our crawlers were unable to access the site. Since this site is a potential client, which shows up online, I can't get access to fix the code, plus while I can write a little html I don't feel comfortable working with hard, live code on someonelse's site. Anyone have a simple solution?

            How Does Moz Shoot Whiteboard Fridays?

            Okay, sort of a meta question here... My company, a global test preparation company, is looking into new ways to deliver online course content (both pre-recorded and live streaming). Around the office we have looked at dozens of examples of companies that do video presenting or teaching, and then I realized that I watch a great example of high-quality online video every week: Whiteboard Fridays! They look and sound fantastic! Moz team, what are you willing to share re: the setup you use? I'm looking for specific direction about lighting, sound, and equipment. Anything you share would be VERY much appreciated. Thanks!
