Crawl Errors and Notices drop to zero
-
Hi all,
After setting up a campaign in Moz the crawl is successful and it showed the Errors and Warnings in crawl diagnostics (each one had about 40-50), but after a few days the number dropped to zero. Only the "notices" seems to stay normal, with a slight drop since the campaign set up, but not dropping to zero. I set this campaign up in a colleague's account and the same thing happened shortly after set up. I didn't find any Q&A already posted so any insight is appreciated!

Glad I could help!

Thank you for looking into this. Really appreciate it!

Hey Vanessa,
Every URL that is in the report you forwarded is on the blog, so it definitely looks like the noindex tag on the blog is the reason for the drop in crawl errors and warnings. If you prefer that we begin crawling the blog again, you can have that tag removed, but the tag also means that the search engines aren't indexing those pages or finding those errors any longer either.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks for looking into this, Chiaryn. That is the correct campaign. I have a report from April 17 and I sent it to help@seomoz.org. If you can shed any light on this that would be a big help. I appreciate it!

Hey Vanessa,
Thanks for writing in.
I looked into your account and I think you are referring to the Sparky campaign. Unfortunately, I can only see the most recent crawl data, so I don't have a way to compare the crawls from prior to April 24th to see why the number of errors and warnings would have dropped off around that time.
I do see that we picked up a noindex, nofollow tag on the blog pages on April 16th, so it may be that we were crawling other pages on the blog that had errors and warnings before the tag was added. But once the noindex, nofollow tags were added, we weren't able to crawl those pages and report back on the errors.
If you can think of any other changes that may have taken place around April or if you have an old report that shows some of the URLs that were reported as having errors, I can look into this further for you. If you prefer not to include the error report on this public forum, you can always email it to help@seomoz.org and include my name in the subject line.
I hope this helps.
Chiaryn

Unsolved Moz Pro crawl signaling missing canonical which are not?
Hi,
Moz Pro | | rolandvintners
I'm trying MozPro considering using it.
One of the tool which is appealing is the crawl and insights.
After quick use, I really question many of the alerts, for instance, I got a "missing canonical tag" on this url: https://vintners.co/wine/grawu_gto#2020 but when I check my markup, there's clearly a canonical tag: <link rel="canonical" href="https://vintners.co/wine/grawu_gto"> Anybody can explain?
I asked Moz Pro staff when being onboarded but didn't get an answer...
Honestly, I'm questioning the value of these crawls, or may be I miss something?0 -
Site Crawl 4xx Errors?
Hello! When I check our website's critical crawler issues with Moz Site Crawler, I'm seeing over 1000 pages with a 4xx error. All of the pages that are showing to have a 4xx error appear to be the brand and product pages we have on our website, but with /URL at the end of each permalink. For example, we have a page on our site for a brand called Davinci. The URL is https://kannakart.com/davinci/. In the site crawler, I'm seeing the 4xx for this URL: https://kannakart.com/davinci/URL. Could this be a plugin on our site that is generating these URLs? If they're going to be an issue, I'd like to remove them. However, I'm not sure exactly where to begin. Thanks in advance for the help, -Andrew

Webmaster Tools shows mystery errors that Moz does not
One of my campaigns is doing great in the sense that the website has been running fault free for a few months now. Great, of course! But... in Google Webmaster Tools errors keep coming in showing older media documents and pages. And it does not say where they are from. Probably this is more a Google question, but I thought I'd try to find some answers here first. I would appreciate any suggestions and help. Monique

Okay how do I fix this cannibalization error?
Okay so check it out. I already have the problem where my main page shows 3 of my posts of 3 popular posts and the SEOmoz optimization tool tells my there are like 60 keyword occurances? for the damn page so I had to make it look damn ugly for my views and lowered it to 1 post and 2 popular posts. Can I fix that? Another thing - The SEOMOZ tool keeps telling me I have this cannibalization crap on all my posts because my homepage in the upper left corner has the keyword in it and in the footer of the template, my homepage title shows up (Keyword). What the heck do I do to fix this? And also another question - I have my main page AND 1 of my posts ranking for the same keyword. Is there a problem?

SEOMoz Crawling Only 1 Page
I entered a new site into my dashboard 2 days ago - everything looked kosher, there were a few hundred pages crawled and a whole bunch of errors. I came back this morning to start work on the site and SEOMoz has crawled the site again, this time returning only 1 page and 0 errors. I haven't even logged in to the site since the first crawl, so I couldn't have broken anything. Has anyone seen this before?
