Does SEOMOZ bot not know where to look for AJAX site snapshots?

Not being web developers on the help team, I'm hesitant diving into the code and tell you what's wrong here. Running some quick searches on Google though, it does look like there may be something wrong with the site setup. I'd really recommend reviewing the article I linked to above. It's a little old but the material is still relevant.
Once everything is corrected, Roger still may not be able to read the content. The workaround presented above was to show a potential solution but it isn't a guaranteed fix since he does have issues understanding AJAX in general.

I definitely understand how frustrating this can be and wish I could do more to help. Hopefully someone in the community will be able to dive in a bit more on the technical web dev side of things.

We are already using pushstate on supported browsers via angularjs ui.router library, which is why you see clean URL on our site without #! notation...

Hi there,
This question is a bit intricate.
With AJAX content like this, I know Google's full specifications: https://developers.google.com/webmasters/ajax-crawling/docs/specification indicate that the #! and ?escaped_fragment= technique works for their crawlers. However, Roger is a bit picky and isn't robust enough yet to use only the sitemap as the reference in this case. Luckily, one of our wonderful users came up with a solution using pushState() method.

I can't answer the question exactly, but I did notice that if you go to the url directly, the content displays properly but returns a 404 error. That may cause issues. It doesn't appear to be affecting Google's crawl but I could see it messing up Moz's crawler, especially because I'm fairly positive that Bing doesn't handle ajax properly.

In Moz Campaigns, how are competitor domains tracked if they redirect their site?
Hello! One of our competitors (Company A) that we've tracked in Moz for a long time recently merged with another company (Company B) and redirected their whole site to Company B's site. Will our competitor tracking still work as-is? Or do we need to make an adjustment? I'm reluctant to delete Company A from our competitor tracking, because we will lose all of that data. But if all of the keywords are slowly going to drop off as Google starts showing Company B results only, it may be the only option. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Tracked Ranking Keywords in Campaign and Ranking Keywords in Keyword Explorer are coming up with very different results - does anybody know why?
We have a campaign set up that is tracking keywords with varying monthly volumes and the website is ranking for them. I have gone into the new Keyword Explorer Feature (looks great!) and I have tested it by putting in the root domain address mentioned above. My problem is that none of the keywords that I am tracking and ranking for are appearing in the "ranking keywords" report in Keyword Explorer. Does anybody know why this might be happening?

Why is Moz Crawling More Pages Than My Site Actually Has?
Hi I have a site that only has 5k pages but Moz has crawled 50K pages on the site when I initiated the site crawl. I don't exactly know why Moz is reporting me back so many pages but I was wondering why this is and if any of you out in the Moz community know anything about this. Thanks

MOZ crawl test is not reporting on all the pages on my site.
I've run the crawl test one of the sites I've taken over SEO for, however its only picking all the pages. For instance it indexes all the pages under xxxxx/us but none under xxxxx/au or xxxxx/uk The pages are being indexed as they're ranking in Google. Thanks.

Why isn't seo moz properly crawling my site?
In my campaign results, only 2 pages have been crawled, when there are many more. Also, when I do the on-page evaluation for my homepage and the main keyword, I get a grade of F, with a ton of errors that my page actually does not have. It's as if SEO moz is having trouble crawling through my site. Any ideas on this?
