Moz tools are returning "url is inaccessible"
-
Hello everyone,
I have been trying to use the on page grader tool and I have also tried to do a site crawl test, and both tools have come back with a "Sorry, but that URL is inaccessible" error. This has not been a problem before. Any ideas why this is happening eg what is blocking it. The url is www.livinghouse.co.uk any help for a novice would be appreciated.
PS. I have had another tool also not giving any results, so I assume its something on the site which is blocking the tools. Could this also block Google?
Thanks Giles

Hi David,
My website, http://lifeforcehub.com/, is having the same issue where the url is inaccessible. Is there any update on your public IP as I will ask my ISP to unblock your public IP
Thanks

Hi Huburtus
Sorry to hear you are running into similar issues. Would you be able to contact your ISP and make sure they are not blocking our public IP 54.188.112.170?
Hope this helps

Hallo David,
I'am experiencing a similar problem with www.dinamo.de / http://www.dinamo.de
Pingdom shows insignificant errors:
http://dnscheck.pingdom.com/?domain=www.dinamo.de×tamp=1404969988&view=1
Can you please look into it on your side?
Thank you in advance

Awesome Giles!

Hello Dave,
All sorted, finally after much prompting the server people decided to have a look and the configuration set up had changed. Now working.
Thanks for your effort

Hi Giles
We're running into being blocked by a few DNS providers and our engineers are reaching out to try and find out why we are not able to get through. I hope to have an update very soon!
-
Hello David,
Any luck with your engineers.
Also the server people asked this question "I suggest that kindly contact your software application provider and ask them the exact requirement to run the software"
So far the server people are not being particularly helpful?
Thanks
Giles

Hi Giles

Talk to you soon!

Hello Dave,
I have done another DNS check (link attached) and the DNS issue seems to be resolved but I still cannot use the on page grader tool, which still gives a url is not accessible message. http://dnscheck.pingdom.com/?domain=livinghouse.co.uk
Do you have any other ideas of what could be the issue.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks
Giles

Thanks Dave I will look in that direction and let you know giles

Hi Giles!
It appears your site is not reachable via DNS and you would need to contact your hosting provider to resolve. Using a DNS check tool via http://dnscheck.pingdom.com/ the test fails indicating there is no delegation found for the domain: http://www.screencast.com/t/q4r7jGTq
DNSstuff has more details through their test that states: Nameservers were found, but the domain entered is a non-delegating subdomain. This application checks conformance to standards for delegating domains/subdomains, so many of the following tests could fail (SOA for instance). If you have a lot of subdomains that share the same parent nameservers you may want to break these out into separate zones. Creating separate zones reduces the load on your parent nameservers. To create sepeparate zones you must assign this subdomain it's own nameservers responsible for this domain and remove these records from your parent zone. This separate zone must have a primary and secondary (at least) nameservers with different IP addresses and an SOA record must be created that refers queries to the newly created primary nameserver.
Hope this helps!

I was able to use open Web Explorer easily on your site
http://www.opensiteexplorer.org/links?site=www.livinghouse.co.uk
your robots.txt file is right here
User-agent: *
Disallow: /acatalog/callmeback.htmlSitemap: http://www.livinghouse.co.uk/sitemap.xml
I would let the Moz help team know.
Sincerely,
Thomas

Why Do Different Tools Report 404s Differently?
Hi Mozers, How come Moz reports just six 404 errors, whereas Google Search Console reports 250 and Screaming Frog only reports a dozen? It seems to me that these results are all over the place. Shouldn't these reports be more consistent? I do understand that Search Console includes historical data and that URLs or issues need to be "marked as fixed" in order for them to go away, however, even if I do this, Google ends up reporting far more errors than anything else. Do 404s reported by Moz and Screaming Frog NOT include external links? It seems to me that this could be partially responsible for the issue. Also, is there a way to efficiently track the source of the 404s besides clicking on "Linked From" within Search Console 250 times? I was looking for something like this is Moz or SF but no luck. Any help is appreciated. Thanksabunch!

How to choose the best canonical URL
In a duplicate content situation, and assuming that both rel=canonical and a 301 redirect pass link equity (I know there is still some speculation on this), how should you choose the "best" version of the URL to establish as the redirect target or authoritative URL? For example, we have a series of duplicate pages on our site. Typically we choose the "cleanest" or shortest non-trailing-slash version of the URL as the canonical, but what if those pages are already established and have varying page authority/backlink profiles? The URLs are: example.com/stores/locate/index?parameters=tags - PA = 54, Inbound Links = 259 example.com/stores/locate/index - PA = 60, Inbound Links = 302 example.com/stores/ - This is the version that currently ranks. PA = 42, Inbound Links = 3 example.com/stores - PA = 40, Inbound Links = 8 This might not really even matter, but in the interests of conserving as much SEO value as possible, which would you choose as either the 301 redirect target and/or the canonical version? My gut is to go with the URL that's already ranking (example.com/stores/) but curious if PA, backlinks, and trailing slashes should be considered also. We of course would not 301 the URL with the tracking parameters. 🙂 Thanks for your help!

Update in Moz spider/tools?? Flagging duplicate content / ignoring canonical
Hi all, Has there been an update in the SEOmoz crawling software? We now have thousands of dupe content/page title warnings for paginated product page URLs that have correctly formatted canonicals. e.g. http://www.woolovers.com/british-wool/mens/tweed-green/wool-countryman-suede-patch-sweater.aspx ... has following pages with identical content that have been flagged: http://www.woolovers.com/british-wool/mens/olive-green/wool-countryman-suede-patch-sweater.aspx?p=true&rspage=4 http://www.woolovers.com/british-wool/mens/olive-green/wool-countryman-suede-patch-sweater.aspx?p=true&rspage=6 http://www.woolovers.com/british-wool/mens/olive-green/wool-countryman-suede-patch-sweater.aspx?p=true&rspage=4 ..plus 4 more URL's. But they all have canonical set. There's even a notice at the bottom of report that tells us there's a canonical set to http://www.woolovers.com/british-wool/mens/tweed-green/wool-countryman-suede-patch-sweater.aspx What gives, SEOmoz ?? Thanks Michael

Erroneous "Weekly Keyword Ranking & On-page Optimization Report" For Campaign
Hi, I just received an email alert from Seomoz telling me my "Weekly Keyword Ranking & On-page Optimization Report " for the period 11/06/12 - 11/13/12 is ready. It is just a copy of the previous report though, all rankings and ranking changes are the same. What is up with that? Best regards, Martin

It would be Great if their were further integrations with Google Webmaster Tools
It would be great if their were plans to integrate Google Webmaster Tools into the mix. Specifically the Errors section. I am currently working on a new Campaign where I am seeing a little bit of overlap, but Google is finding all sorts of different missing pages from 3 redesigns ago but also quite a few current ones. Currently in SEOmoz: 0 Errors, while Google is reporting 12 - 403 Errors for some content the client unpublished. While the addition of Google Analytics was a nice, it would be great to dig further into Webmaster tools and Analytics with features that discover errors and provide actionable next steps. Is anyone else seeing these discrepancies between SEOmoz and Google Webmaster Tools?

Crawl test tool from SEOmoz - which URLs does it actually crawl?
I am using for the first time the crawl test tool from SEOmoz and I do not really understand which URLs the tool is going to crawl. First, it says "enter any subdomain" --> why can´t I do the crawl for the root domain? Second it says "we'll crawl up to 3,000 linked-to pages" --> does that mean that the tool crawls all internal links that it can find on the given domain? Thanks for your help!
