Site Crawl Status code 430
-
Hello,
In the site crawl report we have a few pages that are status 430 - but that's not a valid HTTP status code. What does this mean / refer to?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes#4xx_Client_errorsIf I visit the URL from the report I get a 404 response code, is this a bug in the site crawl report?
Thanks,
Ian.

Which, of course, you can't do in Shopify.
Maybe we should just collectively get on Shopify to implement this by default.

It's all in this help document:
https://moz.com/help/moz-procedures/crawlers/rogerbot
"Crawl Delay To Slow Down Rogerbot
We want to crawl your site as fast as we can, so we can complete a crawl in good time, without causing issues for your human visitors.
If you want to slow rogerbot down, you can use the Crawl Delay directive. The following directive would only allow rogerbot to access your site once every 10 seconds:
User-agent: rogerbot
Crawl-delay: 10"
So you'd put the specified rule in your robots.txt file

This is happening to a client of mine too. Is there a way to set my regular MOZ Pro account to crawl the site slower?

This is a common issue with Shopify hosted stores, see this post:
It seems to be related to crawling speed. If a bot crawls your site too fast, you'll get 430s.
It may also be related to the proposed, 'additional' status code 430 documented here:
"430 Request Header Fields Too Large
This status code indicates that the server is unwilling to process the request because its header fields are too large. The request MAY be resubmitted after reducing the size of the request header fields."
I'd probably look at that Shopify thread and see if anything sounds familiar

@Angler - yeah thought the same - but why not log it as a 403 in the report. The site is hosted on Shopify - so don't get access to logs unfortunately.
Was wandering if it was related to rate limiting as in a few cases it's a false positive and page loads fine.
Have emailed Eli - thanks,
Best.
Ian.

"Our crawler was not able to access the robots.txt file on your site."
Hi Mozzers! I've received an error message saying the site can't be crawled because Moz is unable to access the robots.txt. I've spoken to the webmaster and he can't understand why the robot.txt can't be accessed as this seems to be fine: https://k3syspro.com/robots.txt and Google isn't flagging anything up to us. Does anyone know why this may be? Thanks, Matthew

Crawl Limit Question
I'm a little confused as to how the crawl limit works. Since there seems to be a 10K per week max, the crawl limit can't be per week, so what is the time period? Also, does that include crawling sites entered as competitors? Right now I'm at 14/25 sites and most of them are under 1,000 pages so I'm not sure how I hit that limit (other than a one-time spike of 28,000 in November).

MOZ Crawl help
Our MOZ report says it crawled 1800 pages so it reports a lot of errors based on those pages. We don't have that many pages on our site. What is MOZ crawling? I updated the profile to make sure it crawls the filtered page section of Google Analytics.

How do you keep your SEOMOZ Status when you go from one agency to another?
If you work for an Agency and build a strong profile here at SEOMOZ, what happens if I leave and get a new opportunity but my profile is tied to my last business? How do I transfer all the hard work I've done being involved and gaining those super awesome MOZPOINTS to my new spot? The old agency can just swoop in and the new guy will benefit from my work in the community. Is there anyway to safeguard your name.
