Moz not able to crawl our site - any advice?
-
When I try and crawl our site through Moz it gives this message:
Moz was unable to crawl your site on Aug 7, 2019. Our crawler was banned by a page on your site, either through your robots.txt, the X-Robots-Tag HTTP header, or the meta robots tag. Update these tags to allow your page and the rest of your site to be crawled. If this error is found on any page on your site, it prevents our crawler (and some search engines) from crawling the rest of your site. Typically errors like this should be investigated and fixed by the site webmaster.
I have been through all the help and doesn't seem to be any issues. You can check the site and robots.txt here: https://myfamilyclub.co.uk/robots.txt.
Anyone got any advice on where I could go to get this sorted?

Hello, have the same issue and MOZ getting "Bummer no data found" for domain https://wherebuycoin.com/ . The SEMRush and Ahrefs see this site, but MOZ not, even after 2 years. What can be wrong? Where to read why MOZ not crawling my site?
Thanks!

Check your website's robots.txt file to ensure that it's not blocking Moz's user-agent or specific directories/pages that you want to be crawled. Update the robots.txt file if necessary to allow Moz to crawl your site.

Hey,
We crawled the site just fine with Screaming Frog. Perhaps this is a Moz issue?
Looks like they are well aware of it though.
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm sorry to hear about this! Would you be able to write into help@moz.com as this will allows us to investigate into this via the most convenient method.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Eli

Moz site crawl doesn't work
The Moz site crawl isn't working for my campaign, but works for the site's on demand crawl. The search should not be disallowed by robots.txt or the headers. I'd like to be able to track the website for the campaign so I can see SEO gains / losses and increases / decreases in indexing.

Crawling issue
Hi, I have to set up a campaign for a webshop. This webshop is a subdomain itself. First question: The two subfolders I need to track are /nl_BE and /fr_BE. What is the best way to handle this? Shall I set up two different campaigns for each subfolder, or shall I just make one campaign and add tags to keywords? **Second question: **it seems like Moz can't crawl enough pages. There are no disallows in the robots.txt. Should I try putting the following at the top into my robots.txt? User-agent: rogerbot

Why do ignored crawl issues still count as issues?
I use Cloudflare, so I can't avoid the Crawl Error for "Pages with no Meta Noindex" because of the way Cloudflare protects email addresses from harvesting (it creates a new page that has no meta noindex values). I marked this issue as "ignore" because there's nothing I can do about it, and it doesn't really affect my site's performance from an SEO standpoint. But even marked as ignore, it is still included in my site crawl issues count. Of course, I want to see that issues count drop to zero, but that can't happen if the ignored issues are counted. I don't want mark it fixed, because technically it's not fixed. KwPld

Moz Analytics - How can I turn a whole report to 'Monthly'?
Hello, After spending 3 days setting up 14 clients on this system, by this, I mean I went through each client and re-made the same report 14 times as there is no alternative..I have noticed on my reports that: 'Dashboard' is set to 'Weekly' Social is set to 'Daily' Branding is set to 'Monthly' First questions, when I try to run a report, I go to Add Module and change 'Weekly' to 'Monthly', but when I press next, it changes itself back again, am I doing something wrong? UPDATE: I have found that I have go back in the reports, change the heading to 'Monthly' and then re-add this section again. How can I just run a whole report with monthly values? Surely, I do not have to re-do the entire report AGAIN, just to get a different value? I am mortified at how unfinished this product is, if this is the case.

Can I use wildcards "*" when setting up a new Moz campaign?
Basically I would like the Moz crawler to focus on a specific section of our domain. We do not bucket things via folder groups, so the use of wildcards would be applicable to us. Our URL structure: www.domain.com/some-stuff-here/p12345 Is the example below a valid input to track the above URL structure? www.domain.com//p Thanks.

High Number of Crawl Errors for Blog
Hello All, We have been having an issue with very high crawl errors on websites that contain blogs. Here is a screenshot of one of the sites we are dealing with: http://cl.ly/image/0i2Q2O100p2v . Looking through the links that are turning up in the crawl errors, the majority of them (roughly 90%) are auto-generated by the blog's system. This includes category/tag links, archived links, etc. A few examples being: http://www.mysite.com/2004/10/ http://www.mysite.com/2004/10/17/ http://www.mysite.com/tagname As far as I know (please correct me if I'm wrong!), search engines will not penalize you for things like this that appear on auto-generated pages. Also, even if search engines did penalize you, I do not believe we can make a unique meta tag for auto-generate pages. Regardless, our client is very concerned seeing these high number of errors in the reports, even though we have explained the situation to him. Would anyone have any suggestions on how to either 1) tell Moz to ignore these types of errors or 2) adjust the website so that these errors now longer appear in the reports? Thanks so much! Rebecca
