Screaming frog, Xenu, Moz giving wrong results
-
Hello guys and gals,
This is a very odd one, I've a client's website and most of the crawlers I'm using are giving me weird/ wrong results.
For now lets focus on screaming frog, when I crawl the site it will list e.g. meta titles as missing (not all of them though), however going into the site the title is not missing, and Google seems to be indexing the site fine. The robots.txt are not affecting the site (I've also tried changing the user agent).
The other odd thing is SF gives a 200 code but as a status tells me "connection refused" even though it's giving me data.
I'm unable to share the clients site, has any one else seen this very odd issue? And solutions for it?
Many thanks in advanced for any help,

Thanks Dan!

Cheers for the tweet Andy.
Chris, I'd recommend running through this list here in our FAQ -
http://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/faq/#17
In particular, I'd recommend reducing the crawl speed & adjusting the user-agent.
You can also pop it through to our support (http://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/support/) & we can advise. All confidential etc.
Cheers
Dan

Hi Chris
This is hard to answer without an example - do you have a URL or two that you can share with the community?
Thanks so much!

Would someone be willing to site audit us and give us some tips/advice?
Hi, Would someone or a whoever is willing to, help me get me head around what the OSE is telling me? I had a few quotes from firms who used this and they basically tried to sell me the world for £500 a month. So I have done my own SEO over the past 5 months and I think the figures are slowly going up, as are visits and sales (albeit slower than the visits). The site is www.designerboutique-online.com, if anyone is willing to take a look around, throw me some constructive criticism, some praise and some tips/hints etc... that would be great. Our budget is very small, hence the reason for doing it myself, so maybe if I could take some advice and put it into action, I could start making some big changes. Some competitors to compare us with are: www.odsdesignerclothing.com www.tessuti.co.uk www.uniquemenswear.co.uk www.endclothing.co.uk www.psyche.co.uk Thanks Will

Seo Moz for Clients
One thing I recently pondered following the introduction of logos on reports bringing that level of personalisation for the customers is ... would it be somehow possible to take it a step further and have a login on your own personal site that could somehow enable clients to download and look at the information as and when they wanted. An almost mini sep moz for clients where customers login through your own site ?
