Moz crawls
-
Hi all! I'm running two separate campaign crawls at the moment that I'm having a few issues with. The first is http://www.muchbetteradventures.com/.
I'm tracking this at root to try an pick any problems with a previous version of the site, which is on the v1.muchbetteradventures subdomain. However, I'm only seeing 100 or so pages as being crawled in Moz, compared to thousands in Google. There's no access blocked alerts in Moz either.
The second is http://www.sothebys.com/. I started this crawl at root a few days ago and no pages at all have been processed. Very odd!
Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks Reuben! Just getting my head around Screaming Frog! Can it be used to flag up duplicate content issues like Moz?

Hello and great question! If you are ever missing pages from your crawl, you can always email [email protected] with the name of the campaign and a couple examples of missing pages. We can usually diagnose this issue pretty quickly. In a lot of cases, this could be due to the way some domains are forwarded or redirected. I encourage you to email us the issue with a few examples so that the Help Team, including myself, can dig in and figure out whats going on. Sorry for the delay, I hope we can help get to the bottom of your crawl issues.

1. Google's index may or may not be reflective of the pages you actually have on your site—likely the latter, hence the difference between the pages on your site and the pages in Google's index. Right now, the v1 subdomain times out, so no crawlers will be able to do anything with it. The www domain only has about 250 or so URLs.
2. Sotheby's website blocks all but a few crawlers, which is why Moz would not crawl any pages. http://www.sothebys.com/robots.txt
I would suggest using your own crawling software to untangle these issues. If you aren't familiar with Screaming Frog, you should check it out.

Is is possible to revert reporting to a past crawl date?
Site Crawl report defaults to the last crawl. Is there a way to get data from a previous crawl for comparison?

Link to Moz Pro home 404s, and then I stumbled upon Moz's staging site...
I'm wary of giving more information as it's probably best that little to no one be able to access Moz staging for one reason or another. I should also mention that this was done very unintentionally on my part. That said, from the 404 from Moz Pro home, I tried to access "My QA", and that's when I realized that everything I did thereafter was within staging.moz.com (and posted a question similar to this one). Does Moz permit access to their staging site, or did I stumble upon a mistake - or Moz-stake, if you will?

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 is Moz Crawl Diagnostics labelling pages as duplicate when they appear to be different?
Moz Crawl Diagnostics is flagging some pages on the Doorfit website as duplicate, yet the page content is completely different and not identical. Example. Page: http://www.doorfit.co.uk/locks-security/secondary-security Duplicate: http://www.doorfit.co.uk/seals-and-sealants?cat=279 Does anybody have any suggestions as to why this might be the case? Thanks

Duplicate Page Content Report on Moz - Still ranking in Google Results?
Hi, I am experiencing 2 issues with the Duplicate Page Content in Moz. Every week it is notifying me of new duplicate content - so it seems to be missing duplicate content each week and the crawl is never above the 5000-6000 page mark, which means that it is under 10K which is the limit, so presumably everything is crawled in that one go so surely it should detect all of the dupe content on 1 crawl as opposed to having to do various crawls to detect it no? The dupe content report shows me pages that indeed have duplicate content but after checking, these are ranking on Google for their terms... ? Is the duplicate page content report incremental ? Will it add more duplicate content and increase the report every week or does it just show that week's results? If so, it's a bit like chasing my tail... Help!
