Crawl Diagnostics: Next crawl date is in the past
-
Hi -
I have quite a few crawl diagnostic errors and warnings. I have attempted to fix many of them but noticed this note at the bottom of the crawl diagnostics chart:
"Last Crawl Completed: Mar. 22nd, 2013 Next Crawl Starts: Mar. 29th, 2013"
It looks like SEOMoz thinks the next crawl date is Mar 29th, 2013, which is two weeks ago. Is there any way to "force" the crawl and get it back on regular schedule? This may have happened when my account was disabled because my credit card expired...Thoughts?

Hello Brandon!
Thanks for the heads up. I have seen this happen a few times in the past when the account was temporarily suspended because of payment method changes. Our engineers can likely update this for you in the back end. The best step would be to create a ticket with our help team by emailing this issue to [email protected]. Ask for Abe in the subject line and include the login email and campaign name in the content window. I'll have them take a look at this as soon as possible

Thanks Andy!
The archive and re-activate method didn't seem to modify the next crawl date.
I will use the research tools in the mean time.

i've had that once before, if you archive the campaign and then re-activate it - it fixed mine though not sure it fixes everything
would be neat feature to force it to crawl though... in the mean time in research tools go to seo web crawler you can set one off in there - It doesn't appear to feed into a campaign but it will give you the same results even if in excel format

Do we need rel="prev" and rel="next" if we have a rel="canonical" for the first page of a series
Despite having a canonical on page 1 of a series of paginated pages for different topics, Google is indexing several, sometimes many pages in each topic. This is showing up as duplicate page title issues in Moz and Screaming Frog. Ideally Google would only index the first page in the series. Do we need to use rel="prev" etc rather than a canonical on page 1? How can we make sure Google crawls but doesn't index the rest of the series?

Crawl Errors and Notices drop to zero
Hi all, After setting up a campaign in Moz the crawl is successful and it showed the Errors and Warnings in crawl diagnostics (each one had about 40-50), but after a few days the number dropped to zero. Only the "notices" seems to stay normal, with a slight drop since the campaign set up, but not dropping to zero. I set this campaign up in a colleague's account and the same thing happened shortly after set up. I didn't find any Q&A already posted so any insight is appreciated!

Google updated their algorithm. How up to date is OpenSiteExplorer's Domain and Page authority?
Hi guys, as we all know, Google Panda update is here and it changed how they rank inbound links and the linkers domain and page authority. But when I look at OpenSiteExplorer's results, I cant see a difference in the page and domain authority. Why is that?

Is seomoz rogerbot only crawling the subdomains by links or as well by id?
I´m new at seomoz and just set up a first campaign. After the first crawling i got quite a few 404 errors due to deleted (spammy) forum threads. I was sure there are no links to these deleted threads so my question is weather the seomoz rogerbot is only crawling my subdomains by links or as well by ids (the forum thread ids are serially numbered from 1 to x). If the rogerbot crawls as well serially numbered ids do i have to be concerned by the 404 error on behalf of the googlebot as well?

Why Even Publish Dates for the Next OSE Data Set?
I just noticed on the Linkscape calendar the update that was supposed to happen yesterday is pushed back to the 6th. It would be better not knowing. Is this a possibility? Or use the calendar internally, I don't care. Credibility in any announcement or claim looses muster once you do not do what you say you are going to do over and over again. Just a thought..

Campaign status stock in status "Next Crawl in Progress!
Has anyone else had an issue laetly where the campaign status was stock in _ **"Next Crawl in Progress!" **_? One of our campaigns has been in this status for the page 2 1/2 days and this has not happened in the past as there are only 597 pages for this campaign to crawl. I send a help ticket request to the SEOMOZ team but was wondering if this is an isolated issue or if other community members have also experienced it? Thanks.

Too Many On-Page Links: Crawl Diag vs On-Page
I've got a site I'm optimizing that has thousands of 'too many links on-page' warnings from the SeoMoz crawl diagnostic. I've been in there and realized that there are indeed, the rent is too damned high, and it's due to a header/left/footer category menu that's repeating itself. So I changed these links to NoFollow, cutting my total links by about 50 per page. I was too impatient to wait for a new crawl, so I used the On Page Reports to see if anything would come up on the Internal Link Count/External Link Count factors, and nothing did. However, the crawl (eventually) came back with the same warning. I looked at the link Count in the crawl details, and realized that it's basically counting every single '<a href'="" on="" the="" page.="" because="" of="" this,="" i="" guess="" my="" questions="" are="" twofold:<="" p=""></a> <a href'="" on="" the="" page.="" because="" of="" this,="" i="" guess="" my="" questions="" are="" twofold:<="" p="">1. Is no-follow a valid strategy to reduce link count for a page? (Obviously not for SeoMoz crawler, but for Google)</a> <a href'="" on="" the="" page.="" because="" of="" this,="" i="" guess="" my="" questions="" are="" twofold:<="" p="">2. What metric does the On-Page Report use to determine if there are too many Internal/External links? Apologies if this has been asked, the search didn't seem to come up with anything specific to this.</a>
