Crawl issues, how to see a referring link?
-
Hi There,
We've got two crawl issues for pages that don't exist (and never existed). The links are strange and judging by the code in them, appear to be coming from our own CMS.
How can we see which pages the links are on in Moz?
Cheers
Ben

Hey there Ben!
Sam from Moz's Help Team here!
We'd love to help you to further investigate this - would you be able to pop a message over to [email protected], along with the name of the affected campaign and a few examples of the problems that you're seeing? This way we can take a look directly at your site and the CSV results and help you to isolate what's happening here:)
Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thanks for the reply.
The table doesn't show the referring URL for me but your answer prompted me to click the table row and I can now see the referring URL on the next page.
However, I've copied the source for the offending page into a text editor and searched for the broken link but it doesn't exist on the referring page which is weird - right?
Cheers
Ben

The only crawl errors you require to know the referring URLs is the 4xx errors. I know for the 4xx errors the table shows the 404 page and the referring URL.

I’d like to set up a Moz campaign that crawls just the primary website, not subdomains
Is this something you could help with? (it either bombs or crawls everything, so I assume I’m missing something in the campaign settings, or it’s just not possible.

Moz Site Crawl can't index WIX sites
We've been attempting to work on some SEO for a new potential client however they are using a WIX site. We've noticed that Moz SEO tools will not index any WIX sites. e.g. https://www.sharonradisch.com/ (which is one of their case studies). Anyone seen this that can offer any advice? Thanks,

Attempts to fix MOZ recommended issues resulted in drastic ranking drop.
I have a website built in SquareSpace. https://www.ruffhaus.com/ I recently started working with MOZ to track and improve organic SEO. After my initial site crawl, search visibility was reported at a waping 2.38%. Moz showed several critical crawler issues. Most were redirect, 4xx and long URL. So I started working on fixing the redirect and 4xx issues first. I thought this was a good thing. But now my already sad search visibility has dropped to .07% (-95.97%!). I also went from #1 on keyword, brand implementation plan (and 3 variations), to #27. What? Wondering where I went wrong and how to remedy? This is all new to me so I am sure I'm not providing all the info you need to answer my question. Hoping providing the site URL will help. Fire away!

My question is, when you translate your website to another language, does moz crawl both or do i have to add another campaign to moz so that they can crawl it seperately?
Hello, i recently translated my website to spanish, keywords,meta tags, content etc. All of our URL for the translated pages start "ep", which symbolizes espanol. My question is, does moz crawl those pages along with my english pages? or do i have add another campaign for moz to crawl my spanish pages seperately?

I don't believe moz is seeing everything that is on my webpage
I used the page key word grader and got an "F" Moz said that my keyword employee handbook was not in my title nor was it found in the body of my page. But when I look at the page and double check everything it is there all over the place. I am not blaming moz this is a wiz site and while I am a beginner and very well could be wrong could anyone just take a look and tell me if I am nuts or what. The web page is http://www.cestoday.com/#!employee-handbook/co0h I now have the font so big I will have to fix that. Thank you
