Does the Moz crawler have a static ip address?
-
We block AWS from crawling our site. Does the moz crawler use a static ip address that we could allow? I'm currently not able to add a campaign because Moz can't connect to our site.

I currently use Sitelock which disallows unwanted bots to crawl the site. The MOZ is unable to crawl however we can input a white list of ip addresses comming from MOZ. How are you guys going around this issue?

Hi Dustin,
Unfortunately we do not use a static IP address as we have designed our crawler to have a location agnostic approach, this means we use thousands and thousands of IP addresses which will change each time we run a crawl. This approach gives us the best dynamic view of the web and in turn your sites.
We are moving more and more away from AWS but at this time we still use AWS to crawl certain portions.

Can Moz Monitor a JS Site?
We are building a new site that, on the blog landing page, uses JS to populate the individual blog article links on the page. The links are not viewable in the page source, but do appear once the page fully renders. After running an on-demand crawl of the site (in QA...not indexed yet), it appears that Moz isn't indexing these pages, and it also isn't reading other page elements that load later (like an H1 that is rendered in JS but not in page source). Are we going to be able to use Moz to track this site? Is there some setting to help?

How do you "Moz Crawl" a website? Newbie...
Hi everyone; I've used Screaming Frog in the past and it's simple: you enter the URL to the box and click "start" and.. voila: as the button says, the crawling starts. I've had the Pro version of Moz for a while now and haven't really 'done' anything with it. I'd like to crawl a website and thought it would be as easy as it's always been with Screaming Frog... but, for some reason, I can't find the 'way' to do it. I find it really frustrating especially cause I feel like an idiot going around in circles thinking I'm missing something really obvious... Until I realised the only solution was to ask here! So... how in the world do you crawl a website using Moz tools? (Pro version) Thanks!
