How long should the weekly crawl take
-
Mine started yesterday afternoon and it's now almost 11pm on Sunday. 30+ hours and still not finished (and no progress indicator). 438 pages quoted as being crawled. That's not normal - right?
I have made a bunch of changes based on last weeks crawl so I have been eagerly waiting for this to finish But 30 hours?....
Thanks.

Hi Mark,
I've forwarded this to the crawl service team and they are looking into it.
Sorry you've had an unexpected delay, and we'll get it on track for you as soon as possible.

Still running and approaching two days now
My first month trial is up today. This has got me thinking about whether to continue. 40+ hours just seems too much or a small web site such as mine.

Thank you, Joshua. Just to clarify this is not the initial crawl (that happened a couple of weeks ago). This is the third week for me. I am pretty sure the first two were way quicker than this,
Thanks again.

I've had a couple instances where that has happened. It's not an answer you are going to love, but wait another 24 hours and let me know if it hasn't completed.
The first one is always the longest and after that it slots into a routine that you can bank on.
Hope that helps pal.

If links have been disavowed, do they still show in crawl reports?
I have a new client who says they have disavowed all their bad links, but I still see a bunch of spammy backlinks in my external links report. I understand that disavow does not mean links are actually removed so will they continue to show in Google Webmaster Tools and in my Moz reports? If so, how do I know which ones have been disavowed and which have not? Regards, Dino

Does Open Site Explorer purposefully not crawl some sites?
I use both SEOmoz's Open Site Explorer and Web Master Tools to find backlinks when conducting link audits. WMT always finds more links than OSE; I understand Google's database is bigger. But what is interesting to me is that it seems that a large percentage of the links WMT finds that OSE does not are real crappy links that I don't want. That makes me wonder if SEOmoz decides not to crawl certain, low quality, sites? Just curious.

How does SEOMoz crawl sites? Does it follow the sitemap?
I only ask because in my report it returned a few "no follow" links. Was wondering how SEOMoz operates.

Has anyone else not had an SEOmoz crawl since Dec 22?
Before the holidays, I completed a website redesign on an eCommerce website. One of the reasons for this was duplicate content. The new design has removed all duplicate content. (Product descriptions on 2 pages) I took a look at my Crawl Diagnostics Summary this morning and this is what I saw: Last Crawl Completed: Dec. 15th, 2011 Next Crawl Starts: Dec. 22nd, 2011 Thinking it might have something to do with the holidays. Although, I would like to see this data as soon as possible. Is there a way I can request a crawl from seomoz ? Thanks, John Parker

& VS & - Title too long?
It seems that SEO Moz inturprets & as the html ascii character code: & in my titles. This is pushing the titles over the limit by 1 or 2 characters in some cases. Does this matter? does google actually treat & the same way? or is this an SEO Moz bug?
