Search engine blocked by robots-crawl error by moz & GWT
-
Hello Everyone,.
For My Site I am Getting Error Code 605: Page Banned by robots.txt, X-Robots-Tag HTTP Header, or Meta Robots Tag, Also google Webmaster Also not able to fetch my site, tajsigma.com is my site
Any expert Can Help please,
Thanx
-
When was your last crawl date in Google Webmaster Tools/Search Console? It may be that your site was crawled with some kind of problem with the robots.txt and hasn't been re-crawled since.
-
Yes , Exactly
I am also worried For that only, Can you please help to identify my site problem
Thnx
-
That's very strange. The robots.txt looks fine, but here's what I see when I search for your site on Google.
-
Headers look fine and as you correctly said your robots and meta robots are also ok.
I have also noted that doing a site:www etc in google search is also returning pages for your site so again showing it is being crawled and indexed.
To all intents and purposes it looks ok to me. Someone else may be able to shed more light on the issue if they have experienced this error to this degree.

www.tajsigma.com This the Domain For Query robots 605- code
-
Just to check it that the live one, or just a test in GSC. Can you send a link to your site maybe in a PM.
-
Yes, It is Also okay there see Attached screenshot
-
Have you followed the following and in Google Search Console tried testing your robots file.
If you are allowing all, I would maybe suggest simply removing your robots.txt all together so it defaults to just crawling everything.
-
Thanx, Tim Holmes For Your Quick reply
But My robots.txt File is
User-agent: *
allow: /Also in All pages i have Add Meta-tag
Then After Page is Not Getting Fetched or Crawl by GWT.
Thnx

Hello Falguni,
I believe the error is saying pretty much everything you need to know. Your Robots file or robots meta would appear to be blocking your site from being crawled.
Have you checked your robots.txt file in your root - or type in http://www.yourdomain.com/robots.txt
To ensure your site is being crawled and for robots to have complete access the following should be in place
**User-agent: ***
Disallow: To exclude all robots from the entire server**User-agent: ***
Disallow: **/**If it is the a meta tag causing the issue you will require, or have it removed to default to the below.As opposed to the following combinations which could result in some areas not being indexed, crawled etc
_Hope that helps
Tim_

Google image search
How does google decide which image show up in the image search section ? Is is based on the alt tag of the image or is google able to detect what is image is about using neural nets ? If it is using neural nets are the images you put on your website taken into account to rank a page ? Let's say I do walking tours in Italy and put a picture of the leaning tower of pisa as a top image while I be penalised because even though the picture is in italy, you don't see anyone walking ? Thank you,

Blocking Dynamic Search Result Pages From Google
Hi Mozzerds, I have a quick question that probably won't have just one solution. Most of the pages that Moz crawled for duplicate content we're dynamic search result pages on my site. Could this be a simple fix of just blocking these pages from Google altogether? Or would Moz just crawl these pages as critical crawl errors instead of content errors? Ultimately, I contemplated whether or not I wanted to rank for these pages but I don't think it's worth it considering I have multiple product pages that rank well. I think in my case, the best is probably to leave out these search pages since they have more of a negative impact on my site resulting in more content errors than I would like. So would blocking these pages from the Search Engines and Moz be a good idea? Maybe a second opinion would help: what do you think I should do? Is there another way to go about this and would blocking these pages do anything to reduce the number of content errors on my site? I appreciate any feedback! Thanks! Andrew

On-site Search - Revisited (again, *zZz*)
Howdy Moz fans! Okay so there's a mountain of information out there on the webernet about internal search results... but i'm finding some contradiction and a lot of pre-2014 stuff. Id like to hear some 2016 opinion and specifically around a couple of thoughts of my own, as well as some i've deduced from other sources. For clarity, I work on a large retail site with over 4 million products (product pages), and my predicament is thus - I want Google to be able to find and rank my product pages. Yes, I can link to a number of the best ones by creating well planned links via categorisation, silos, efficient menus etc (done), but can I utilise site search for this purpose? It was my understanding that Google bots don't/can't/won't use a search function... how could it? It's like expeciting it to find your members only area, it can't login! How can it find and index the millions of combinations of search results without typing in "XXXXL underpants" and all the other search combinations? Do I really need to robots.txt my search query parameter? How/why/when would googlebot generate that query parameter? Site Search is B.A.D - I read this everywhere I go, but is it really? I've read - "It eats up all your search quota", "search results have no content and are classed as spam", "results pages have no value" I want to find a positive SEO output to having a search function on my website, not just try and stifle Mr Googlebot. What I am trying to learn here is what the options are, and what are their outcomes? So far I have - _Robots.txt - _Remove the search pages from Google _No Index - _Allow the crawl but don't index the search pages. _No Follow - _I'm not sure this is even a valid idea, but I picked it up somewhere out there. _Just leave it alone - _Some of your search results might get ranked and bring traffic in. It appears that each and every option has it's positive and negative connotations. It'd be great to hear from this here community on their experiences in this practice.

Website Indexing Issues - Search Bots will only crawl Homepage of Website, Help!
Hello Moz World, I am stuck on a problem, and wanted to get some insight. When I attempt to use Screaming Spider or SEO Powersuite, the software is only crawling the homepage of my website. I have 17 pages associated with the main domain i.e. example.com/home, example.com/sevices, etc. I've done a bit of investigating, and I have found that my client's website does not have Robot.txt file or a site map. However, under Google Search Console, all of my client's website pages have been indexed. My questions, Why is my software not crawling all of the pages associated with the website? If I integrate a Robot.txt file & sitemap will that resolve the issue? Thanks ahead of time for all of the great responses. B/R Will H.

Rich snippets error?
hello everyone, I have this problem with the rich snippets: http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.visalietuva.lt%2Fimone%2Ffcr-media-lietuva-uab The problem is that it says some kind of error. But I can't figure it out what it is. We implemented the same code on our other websites: http://www.imones.lt/fcr-media-lietuva-uab and http://www.1588.lt/imone/fcr-media-lietuva-uab . The snippets appear on Google and works perfectly.

Search engine simulators are not finding text on my website. Do I have a problem with Javascript or AJAX?
My website text is not appearing in search engine simulators. Is there a problem with the javascript? Or perhaps AJAX is affecting it? Is there a tool I can use to examine how my website architecture is affecting how the site is crawled? I am totally lost. Help!

Affiliate & canonicals
Hi, any help with this one would be great.... www.example.com sells widgets online. They are also promoted on a 3rd party website www.partner.com. Currently www.partner.com links to a page on www.example.com that is completely branded with the 'partners' design, style and unique copy (you would think you were still on 'partner' website). I saw this interesting article from 2011: http://www.seomoz.org/blog/getting-seo-value-from-your-affiliate-links (in particular idea 1) Do you think adding a rel=canonical on www.example.com's partner page is still safe? All the best & thank you, Richard
