Crawl error robots.txt
-
Hello, when trying to access the site crawl to be able to analyze our page, the following error appears:
**Moz was unable to crawl your site on Nov 15, 2017. **Our crawler was banned by a page on your site, either through your robots.txt, the X-Robots-Tag HTTP header, or the meta robots tag. Update these tags to allow your page and the rest of your site to be crawled. If this error is found on any page on your site, it prevents our crawler (and some search engines) from crawling the rest of your site. Typically errors like this should be investigated and fixed by the site webmaster.
Can help us?
Thanks!

@Linda-Vassily yes

The page is: https://frizzant.com/ And don't have noindex

Thanks Lind and Tawny! i 'll check it

Hey there!
This is a tricky one — the answer to these questions is almost always specific to the site and the Campaign. For this Campaign, it looks like your robots.txt file returned a 403 forbidden response to our crawler: https://www.screencast.com/t/f42TiSKp
Do you use any kind of DDOS protection software? That can give our tools trouble and cause us to be unable to access the robots.txt file for your site.
I'd recommend checking with your web developer to make sure that your robots.txt file is accessible to our user-agent, rogerbot, and returning a 200 OK status for that user-agent. If you're still having trouble, it'll be easier to assist you if you contact us through [email protected], where we can take a closer look at your account and Campaign directly.

I just popped that into ScreamingFrog and I don't see a noindex on that page, but I do see it on some other pages. (Though that shouldn't stop other pages from being crawled.)
Maybe it was just a glitch that happened to occur at the time of the crawl. You could try doing another crawl and see if you get the same error.

The page is: http://www.yogaenmandiram.com/ And don't have noindex

Hmm. How about on the page itself? Is there a noindex?
-
Yes, our robots.txt it's very simple:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Allow: /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php -
That just says that you are blocking the Moz crawler. Take a look at your robots.txt file and see if you have any exclusions in there that might cause that page not to be crawled. (Try going to yoursite.com/robots.txt or you can learn more about this topic here.)

Sorry, the image don't appear

It looks like the error you are referring to did not come through in your question. Could you try editing it?

Site Crawl Status code 430
Hello, In the site crawl report we have a few pages that are status 430 - but that's not a valid HTTP status code. What does this mean / refer to?

My site crawl has been in progress since last week
Hi there, I've been waiting on my site crawl to complete since Friday (it's Tuesday now), but it still has the 'in progress' notification at the top. Is it normal for it to take over 3 days? Or is there something holding it up?

HTTPS (SSL) Error Encountered.
Hi guys, We received the following error from our Moz report, our hosting companies says it's isn't an issue but I wanted to get your feedback as it seems a bit odd. We recently moved eventfull.co.nz to a VPS and setup an EV SSL. We moved another site to the same VPS and added EV SSL and it isn't reporting any issue. Hosting companies feedback below error message | Crawl Error Error Code 804: HTTPS (SSL) Error Encountered Your page requires an SSL security certificate to load (using HTTPS), but the Moz Crawler encountered an error when trying to load the certificate. Our crawler is pretty standard, so it's likely that other browsers and crawlers may also encounter this error. If you have this error on your homepage, it prevents the Moz crawler (and some search engines) from crawling the rest of your site. | | I am just running some tests on the SSL cert installation now, but so far all appears to be fine. I've checked your .htaccess file and there is nothing that should be blocking them, and the logs show nothing unexpected or any SSL failures. SSL Labs test returns an A rating with no errors. One possibility (though, it's a long shot) is that we never increased the HSTS time beyond 3600, so it's possible that the crawler is failing because of this perceived insecurity. However, if there is some other issue going on, increasing the HSTS time would be a bad idea, so I suggest some further monitoring and testing. You may need to contact Moz about the issue and see if they can help. Is there any other evidence of SSL failing to load? Have you experienced any other issues, or is it only the Moz report that is indicating any problem? |

What is the difference between the "Crawl Issues" report and the "Crawl Test" report?
I've downloaded the CSV of the Crawl Diagnositcs report (which downloads as the "Crawl Issues" report) and the CSV from the Crawl Test Report, and pulled out the pages for a specific subdomain. The Crawl Test report gave me about 150 pages, where the Crawl Issues report gave 500 pages. Why would there be that difference in results? I've checked for duplicate URLs and there are none within the Crawl Issues report.

Why has my Google Analytics dropped completely from the results on this weeks crawl?
The Account code hasn't changed in either Moz or on site? Also I added 53 new keywords to my campaign and they haven't all been ranked, it's like Moz has done half a job?! S.O.S.
