Reset Crawler
-
Hello, Does anyone know how to reset the crawler? We recently uploaded our new website and deleted the current campaign but it seems the crawler is caching our old websites data and not the new so every time we try to create a new campaign with the same details, it's just pulling everything from cache it seems. Thanks

Hi ForzaHost!
This is Megan from the SEOmoz Help Team. I see that you've opened a ticket that my colleague, Chiaryn, is working with you on. We'll be following up with you in the ticket instead so we can look at your campaign specific information and help figure out what's happening.
Cheers!

Hello,
Sorry, I meant SEOMoz's Crawler.
I should have been more clear, I apologize.
Thanks.

ForzaHost,
One thing you might try is Fetch As Google. In GWT on dashboard you will see health. Under health click Fetch as Google and the drop down will allow you to choose what you want. (Probably Web). You can insert up to 500 directories (one at time to check the results).
Under Fetch as Google, is Index where you can see when the site was indexed, etc.
Hope this is helpful,

Crawlers reporting upper case letter url versions although these have been 301'd to lower case !?
Hi I have a client e-com site who's dev platform is on a windows server Their product pages have been auto-named after the product title, with the first letter in each word being upper case, which has hence translated to the URL having upper cases instances too. I asked them to set up 301 redirects for all url's that had upper case instances to lower case versions, which they say they have done. However I'm still seeing url's with upper case instances showing up in webmaster tools and moz crawl reports but when I copy & paste them into a browser they do redirect to, & resolve in, the lower case version. Its also upper case versions reported in the Google cache! So how come webmaster tools & Moz etc are reporting the upper case versions, surely if redirected it should be the lower case versions All Best Dan

I have a duplicate content on my Moz crawler, but google hasn't indexed those pages: do I still need to get rid of the tags?
I received an urgent error from the Moz crawler that I have duplicate content on my site due to the tags I have. For example: http://www.1forjustice.com/graves-amendment/ The real article found here: http://www.1forjustice.com/car-accident-rental-car/ I didn't think this was a big deal, because when I looked at my GWT these pages weren't indexed (picture attached). Question: should I bother fixing this from an SEO perspective? If Google isn't indexing the pages, then am I losing link juice? 6c2kxiZ

Rogerbot's crawl behaviour vs google spiders and other crawlers - disparate results have me confused.
I'm curious as to how accurately rogerbot replicates google's searchbot I've currently got a site which is reporting over 200 pages of duplicate/titles content in moz tools. The pages in question are all session IDs and have been blocked in the robot.txt (about 3 weeks ago), however the errors are still appearing. I've also crawled the page using screaming frog SEO spider. According to Screaming Frog, the offending pages have been blocked and are not being crawled. Webmaster tools is also reporting no crawl errors. Is there something I'm missing here? Why would I receive such different results. Which one's should I trust? Does rogerbot ignore robot.txt? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

No (seomoz) crawler report since 7th may !!
Hi Mozteam, I added a site less than 200 pages in the tool "seomoz crawler", at May 7. We are May 15 and the tool always displays "crawl in progress." Do you have a problem about this tool? This is embarrassing ... Thank you for your reply. David France

Why is the SEOmoz crawler crawling the old version of our website?
Hello, I'm a new SEOmoz member. On Dec. 2nd, after completely redesigning our website, we migrated to a new hosting company by switching our DNS to the new server. The vast majority of the URLs have changed and we configured redirects of the old URLs to the new ones. Although, this task is not completed yet. After the migration, I created an account on SEOmoz to be able to track our progress and find the issues to fix to optimize our SEO. For some reason, in the SEOmoz reports it is the old URLs that show up. Unless the crawler does not actually crawl the pages and only uses the indexed pages to generate its report, I don't understand how could this possible. Anyone has a clue? When will the new URLs be indexed by SEOmoz and the major search engines? Thanks for your help!

MOZ Crawler only crawling one page per campaign
We set up some new campaigns, and now for the last two weekly crawls, the crawler is only accessing one page per campaign. Any ideas why this is happening? PS - two weeks back we did "upgrade" the account. Could this have been an issue?
