How can I cancel a running crawl test?
-
I put in two urls that were incorrect and now I need to cancel the report generation. Is there a way to do this? And if so, would I get my crawl-credits back? Are they cumulative?
-
Unfortunately, these crawls are still going. I have a feeling they are stuck as the urls I put in was not a valid one (the lesson here? 'measure twice; saw once') so they are still running after a week or so.

Hi there,
Thanks for reaching out to us! Unfortunately there's no convenient way for us to stop a crawl mid-cycle once it has been initiated, at this time once you start report it automatically consumes a credit so there's not really a way for us to replenish the credits on the backend
Here's a couple of ways you can get around this if you need one in a hurry.
- In the campaign tool, you can initiate a simple dummy campaign that will initiate a starter crawl. It is only 250 pages, however if you need something in a hurry it is not a bad choice.
- We offer 1 crawl test a day to our community members, it is very similar to a starter crawl where we craw up to 250 pages in your site. If you have a friend or colleague that's a community member, they simply have to log on their account to initiate this!
- If you have a PRO account, those credits replenish the next day, I think its a great excuse to finish that home improvement project you've been dying to do or spend time with family
Hope that helps! Let me know if you have questions.
Best,
Peter

Not sure you can or that it's really worth the effort. I requested once right when i was getting familiar with things, and the crawl test had finished by the time support got back to me. Crawl credits are monthly on paid accounts i believe.

Site Crawl 4xx Errors?
Hello! When I check our website's critical crawler issues with Moz Site Crawler, I'm seeing over 1000 pages with a 4xx error. All of the pages that are showing to have a 4xx error appear to be the brand and product pages we have on our website, but with /URL at the end of each permalink. For example, we have a page on our site for a brand called Davinci. The URL is https://kannakart.com/davinci/. In the site crawler, I'm seeing the 4xx for this URL: https://kannakart.com/davinci/URL. Could this be a plugin on our site that is generating these URLs? If they're going to be an issue, I'd like to remove them. However, I'm not sure exactly where to begin. Thanks in advance for the help, -Andrew

Question about Crawl Diagnostics - 4xx (Client Error) report
Hi here, I was wondering if there is a way to find out the originating page where a broken link is found from the 4xx (Client Error) report. I can't find a way to know that, and without that information is very difficult for me to fix any possible 404 related issues on my website. Any thoughts are very welcome! Thank you in advance.

Has any on else experienced a spike in crawl errors?
Hi, Since the last time our sites were crawled in SEOmoz they are all showing a spike in Errors. (Mainly duplicate page titles and duplicate content). We haven't changed anything to the structure of the sites but they are all using the same content management system. The image is an example of what we are witnessing for all our sites based on the same system. Is anyone else experiencing anything similar? or does anyone know of any changes that SEOmoz has implemented which may be affecting this? Thanks in advance, Anthony. WzdQV WzdQV WzdQV.jpg WzdQV.jpg

How long is a full crawl?
It's been now over 3 days that the dashboard for one of our campaigns shows "Next Crawl in Progress!". I am not complaining about the length... but I have to agree that SEOMoz is quite addictive, and it's quite frustrating to see that everyday 🙂 Thanks
