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?

Just a note that we've discontinued the old Crawl Test tool and have launched an entirely new On-Demand Crawl tool based on our upgraded Site Crawl engine (launched last year). The new tool has an enhanced UI, entirely rebuilt back-end, full export capability, and will save your old crawls for up to 90 days.
We've written up a sample case study or logged-in customers can go directly to On-Demand Crawl.
If you're looking to crawl more than 3,000 pages, you can also use campaign-based Site Crawl in Moz Pro.

Hi Brad!
Donna is spot-on; I'm especially a fan of Screaming Frog. That said, it looks like you're a Moz Pro subscriber, so you can use your Moz Analytics campaigns to crawl any site up to 50,000 pages.
Whenever you set up a new campaign, it automatically crawls the site it's set to track. It then updates every week, with the crawl results surfaced in Crawl Diagnostics. It looks like your account can hold up to 5 active campaigns, but they can always be deleted and more can be added.
Does that help at all?

Hi Brad,
Yes there are a couple. The two that come to mind are Screaming Frog and Xenu. Screaming frog is very popular among SEOs. The free version of will allow you to crawl up to 500 pages. A licensed version will allow you to crawl 10,000 pages or more and costs 99 pounds / year. (It's an Oxfordshire, UK company.) Highly recommended.

Crawl Issue Question
Hey guys, I have run the crawl on my WordPress site and Moz finds a "Critical crawl issue" for my site on a broken link (404 error): mydomain.com/**%25s **, I can't seem to be able to find such a link anyway and I have run the website through several other tools that scan for broken links and such and there is no such result.

This link doesn't exist on my site at all and I don't know where Moz got it from, I have made changes to my site and recrawled several times and the specific error persists. Does anyone have any ideas?0 -
Site Crawl - MOz Pro
Hi There, When i look into my site crawl i have thousands of duplicate content issues. Now they are essentially product pages which are in multiple categories - however we have added the canonical tag so im confused as to why all of these are appearing as if there is an error, does the MOZ bot not take canonicals into account? Kind Regards Gemma

KW Explorer is Working to Disambiguate Keywords Google Merges Together
Hey gang, Russ Jones from Moz has been doing a ton of heavy lifting work to try to get around the new problem posed by Google AdWords recent change to merged-keyword volume data. But, we're fighting back against this obfuscation in Keyword Explorer. I'm sharing two emails (slightly edited) from Russ about what we're doing here: Introduction to the Problem: Google Adwords Keyword Planner is the primary source for keyword search volume (how often a keyword is searched monthly on Google) for much of the search marketing industry. While Google has grouped together highly-similar terms for a while (especially misspellings), in June of 2016 they dramatically increased this keyword-grouping. This means similar phrases like "keyword rank", "keyword ranking" and "keyword rankings" would all be reported as having the same, combined search volume, rather than their individual search volumes. If you were to take Google's numbers at face value, you might think there are 3,000 searches per month for these 3 terms, when in reality there is only 1,000, divided amongst the 3 terms. How we are addressing it: Moz's Keyword Explorer uses a blend of data sources, not just Keyword Planner, to build our volume metrics. This gives us a distinct advantage in that we can adjust the volume of words that deviate dramatically in one data set verses another. Take for example the phrases "keyword rank", "keyword ranking", and "keyword rankings". While Google Keyword Planner might report all of these as having 1,000 searches per month, Moz Keyword Explorer can detect that these numbers are significantly higher than what our models would predict given our other data sets. We can then adjust the volume accordingly. Moreover, given our huge keyword data set, we can also identify grouped phrases (like these 3) and divide the volume proportionally to what we see in our other data sets. Thus, we address the grouping problem from multiple directions. Here's email #2 from Russ, detailing more of how we're attacking this: I have been working pretty much non-stop on this keyword volume disambiguation problem (finding the real search volume of individual keywords when Google clumps several together). I think I have settled on a pretty good solution and am working on getting it all in. For example... Google Keyword Volume for the phrases "briefcase for women" and "briefcases for women" are both at 3600 because they have been lumped together. My disambiguation script says the singular (briefcase for women) should be 2731 and the plural should be 869. Google Trends roughly agrees with this, showing that the singular is searched more than 2x the plural: https://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=briefcase%20for%20women%2C%20briefcases%20for%20women&cmpt=q&tz=Etc%2FGMT%2B4 Basically, Keyword Explorer should already be providing some more accurate/segmented numbers than AdWords, and in the future, we'll get even better thanks to our clickstream data and our evolving models. Any questions, let us know!

MOZ On Page Grader Not Seeing Changes
Hello all, I've been doing some SEO work recently and using the really handy A-F rating on MOZ on page grader as a guide. It's worked great so far on my sites up until today. I've made some small changes to a site such as the title and MOZ isn't seeing these changes. For example if I were to put 'banana' in the title of one of my other sites and re-run the on page grader with 'banana' as a keyword, instantly MOZ would say this keyword is used in the title once. I've done the same to another site and the same thing hasn't happened. I did a test and wrote all the keywords from the title in the on page grader and it still said they appear 0 times in the title. Am I missing something here? The site is different from the others, it's flat html and not CMS, but the SEO changes I've made are still the same. Thanks!

Duplicate Page and Title Issues
On the last crawl, we received errors for duplicate page titles and some duplicate content pages. Here is the issue: We went through our page titles that were marked as duplicate and changed them to make sure their titles were different. However, we just received a new crawl this week and it is saying there are even more duplicate page title errors detected than before. We're wondering if this is a problem with just us or if it has been happening to other Moz users. As for the duplicate content pages, what is the best way to approach this and see what content is being looked at as a "duplicate" set?

Crawl Test cannot be seen on my PC. Using Windows 8.
I received and downloaded my Crawl Test. When I try to open it, my pc says "This app can't run on your PC. To find a version for your PC, check with the software publisher". I'm running Windows 8. Can I view my Crawl Test with my PC? Is there a work-around for this issue? Update I can apparently open my Crawl Test and view it as an Excel Spreadsheet. But when I download it and choose Save As, it saves it as a MS-DOS Application. This is my very first Crawl Test and I am not sure if I am doing everything right.
