Robots.txt file issues on Shopify server
-
We have repeated issues with one of our ecommerce sites not being crawled. We receive the following message:
Our crawler was not able to access the robots.txt file on your site. This often occurs because of a server error from the robots.txt. Although this may have been caused by a temporary outage, we recommend making sure your robots.txt file is accessible and that your network and server are working correctly. Typically errors like this should be investigated and fixed by the site webmaster. Read our troubleshooting guide.
Are you aware of an issue with robots.txt on the Shopify servers? It is happening at least twice a month so it is quite an issue.

I leave you 2 url, but it seems that the robots do not let you modify it.
They propose you to put pages as non-index....

Our crawler was not able to access the robots.txt file on your site.
Good morning, Yesterday, Moz gave me an error that is wasn't able to find our robots.txt file. However, this is a new occurrence, we've used Moz and its crawling ability many times prior; not sure why the error is happening now. I validated that the redirects and our robots page are operational and nothing is disallowing Roger in our robots.txt. Any advice or guidance would be much appreciated. https://www.agrisupply.com/robots.txt Thank you for your time. -Danny

Issue with Data Updates on Campaign
I'm reviewing a campaign I am running for a client, the Keywords data has not updated yet even though it's supposed to update every monday. The competitive analysis shows a date of August 14, which is odd becuase I'm on a trial account?

Google Analytic Caching Issue?
Two weeks ago, I started testing a campaign and linked it to my Google analytics account. At the time there were 4 domains linked to the GA account. And I could see all 4 domains at the drop down menu that asked me to choose one to connect to. One week ago, I added a 5 more domains to GA. When I log directly into GA, I see the total of all 9 domains, and all are verified and collecting data. Today at pro seomoz I started a new campaign, for one of the new domains recently added to GA. When I try to connect the campaign to GA, only the ORIGINAL 4 domains are visible on the drop down menu. None of the 5 new domains are visible. So I am unable to connect to the new domain. At campaign settings, I disconnected from GA, and connected again, but could not see the new domains on the drop down menu. I tried to use both FF and IE. I can only assume that this is a caching issue at pro.seomoz. If so, how to flush cache and get current again. Please advise

"Issue: Duplicate Page Content " in Crawl Diagnostics - but sample pages are not related to page indicated with duplicate content
In the crawl diagnostics for my campaign, the duplicate content warnings have been increasing, but when I look at the sample pages that SEOMoz says have duplicate content, they are completely different pages from the page identified. They have different Titles, Meta Descriptions and HTML content and often are different types of pages, i.e. product page appearing as having duplicate content vs. a category page. Anyone know what could be causing this?

Why is Roger crawling pages that are disallowed in my robots.txt file?
I have specified the following in my robots.txt file: Disallow: /catalog/product_compare/ Yet Roger is crawling these pages = 1,357 errors. Is this a bug or am I missing something in my robots.txt file? Here's one of the URLs that Roger pulled: <colgroup><col width="312"></colgroup>

SEOMoz site crawlers created an issue for our servers
I have set up a number of campaigns with your pro tool. Unfortunately we have 7 sites on our server and our IT dept have said that we had an issue when your site crawlers visited for several sites at the same time - is there any way that I can retain the campaigns but have the sites crawled on request rather than automatically?
