Crawl Diagnostics
-
My site was crawled last night and found 10,000 errors due to a Robot.txt change implemented last week in between Moz crawls. This is obviously very bad so we have corrected it this morning. We do not want to wait until next Monday (6 days) to see if the fix has worked. How do we force a Moz crawl now?
Thanks

Its a dotnetblogengine.com blog its open source but not sure where to start

Why so many duplicates? As it's a blog I suspect it's something to do with tags and/or categories.
Instead of trying to hide the problem using the robot.txt file can tackle the root cause directly?

Hi,
As Chris says I don't think there is a way to force a refresh on your campaign crawls, but that crawl test tool should be able to give you an indication if the relevant pages are still producing duplicate content issues or if the fix seems to be reducing them.
That being said, I don't think that robots.txt is the best way to approach duplicate content issues generally. Check out this guide for best practices. It is also worth noting that many times duplicate content issues can be solved by simply removing or adjusting the various differently formatted links that are producing them in the first place (though this depends a lot on which cms you are using and what the root cause of the duplicate content is).

9000 duplicate content and duplicate page titles caused by my blog. I have added
User-agent: *Allow: /Blog/post/Disallow: /Blog
to the Robot.txt to just allow the main site and the Blog posts
Is this a good way to fix it?

I'm pretty sure that you're not able to force a refresh of your campaign stats in between your normal weekly crawl. This tool will crawl the site but it doesn't refresh your campaign. Specifically, what errors were found that you're trying to get rid of?

Hi,
I think this will do what you are after: http://pro.moz.com/tools/crawl-test, limited to 3000 pages but should give an idea if the fix is working as you expect.

Thanks but I require a Moz crawl first.

"Submit URL to Index," which allows you to submit new and updated URLs that Google themselves say they "will usually crawl that day"

SEO Crawl Report Images?
Does SEOMOZ crawl images in the report? Raven tools is showing me about 200 missing alt tags and title tags. I can not seem to find any of this information on the SEOMOZ report. Am I missing something?

When I did my first crawl, I was given some errors.
Do I then need to re-crawl to make sure the errors were fixed accordingly?

Seo moz has only crawled 2 pages of my site. Ive been notified of a 403 error and need an answer as to why my pages are not being crawled?
SEO Moz has only crawled 2 pages of my clients site. I have noticed the following. A 403 error message screaming frog also cannot crawl the site but IIS can. Due to the lack of crawling ability, im getting no feed back on my on page optimization rankings or crawl diagnostics summary, so my competitive analysis and optimization is suffering Anybody have any idea as to what needs to be done to rectify this issue as access to the coding or cms platform is out of my hands. Thank you

No Crawl data in dashboard
For the second straight week, I have had no crawl data in my dashboard. It seems like the crawler erased all my results in the pro dashboard. Is there a way to manually recrawl my site, since I will have to wait another week to see if it comes back to earth? Thanks

Title says it all, is this an issue? The pages seem to be set up properly with Rel=Canonical so should i just ignore the duplicate page title erros in my Crawl Diagnostics dashboard? Thanks

Why did the crawl last night not show the same results i see in google?
Last night my keywords were crawled and it shows me that a key word is ranked 14. For 3 days now it has been rank 4 or 5. Is there a reason this is not accurate? I have not checked the rest of my keywords so i am not sure about those. Thanks
