Pages crawled dropped like a stone
-
set up a new campaign
seomoz crawled the site and did about 1500 pages
the last crawl it now only lists 1 page
I can see anyway to see why, the site has not changed so why has the number of pages dropped?
-
Here's a post from our help desk on why sometimes only one page is crawled. https://seomoz.zendesk.com/entries/409821-why-isn-t-my-site-being-crawled-you-re-not-crawling-all-my-pages If that doesn't solve your problem, please send an email to help@seomoz.org. Thanks!

You can't force it to crawl more frequently. If they start a manual crawl for you, it will take a couple days, not a week.

Seriously, that's exactly what happened to me once. Roger starts its crawl from the homepage and then goes deeper. Sometimes he malfunctions. If you email help, they can start another manual crawl for you.
-
so what was it, and how quick was it solved?
That worries me a little as if i now have to wait another week, I cant sit here doing nothing while I wait for it to crawl again and see if my last round of changes has improved things?
Can you force it to crawl more frequently

looks like its only crawled the home page so what would stop it past the home page, if it had errors would it tell me, as i know there are more pages as the last crawl it did over 1500

That happened to me a few months ago and it turned out to be an issue with SEOmoz, not with my site. This is something you should email the help desk about.

Home page optimisation
It's not possible to add a keyword to the homepage url. Do we still add a secondary keyword along the primary one on the home page title and meta description etc. How do we make our primary keyword to dominate in this case. Thanks

Index dropped 20 pages at once since yesterday
Hi community, I just realized that my indexed pages dropped from the amount of 95 to 75 and I don't know why. I did some title tag arrangements because we are launching with our first product (before that it was just a blog). I did these changes 1 week ago and fetched to google the homepage and some subdomains. Thanks for your help. Kind regards Marco

Wrong Page is Ranking
My client is an Ecommerce reseller of a few major scooter brands. We currently rank fifth for a particular brand name but our main brand page isn't the one that ranks. Instead, it's a product page. The main brand page has an A rating from Moz for the desired keyword phrases. Neither page has any backlinks. Any ideas on why our main brand page would be outranked by a product page? What could we do to change this?

10 Mobile Pages. 5 Desktop Pages. Canonnical to where?
I have a mobile site with more pages than the desktop site. Normally I would just point the page equivalents to the desktop site using the rel canonnical tag. What about the 5 pages? Do I just leave them be? Thanks

Home page keyword effecting internal page ranking
Hello, My client has a second keyword for the home page that is competitive. The home page is not being ranked for this keyword. Instead, an internal category page is ranking. This internal category page is more relevant than the home page - it shows the categories for the actual products that this term refers to. But everyone around us in Google's page results has far more backlinks than the internal page, and we're all heavily optimized for this term. My question is, is it safe to pull the second term off of the home page or is this internal page strong because it is somehow being strengthened by the home page optimization?

To Many Links On Page
I'm having a problem on a crawl warning for our main site. The warning is that every one of my pages has to many links, a little over 1,000 on almost all of them. I think this is because our category list on our left hand sidebar has so many categories, and that sidebar appears on every last one of our pages even all the way into our products. Can anyone take a look and tell me if this is the reason why and what I could possibly do about this? Thanks in advance! www.Ocelco.com

SEOmoz crawl error
Hi, I'm getting a crawl error and it complains about there being missing meta description... But, the errors are all for non existent index files in directories that only contain pdf files and some thumbs of the front page... Just started trying to learn this stuff...! Cheers Rod
