Incorrect crawl errors
-
A crawl of my websites has indicated that there are some 5XX server errors on my website:
Error Code 608: Page not Decodable as Specified Content Encoding
Error Code 803: Incomplete HTTP Response Received
Error Code 803: Incomplete HTTP Response Received
Error Code 608: Page not Decodable as Specified Content Encoding
Error Code 902: Network Errors Prevented Crawler from Contacting ServerThe five pages in question are all in fact perfectly working pages and are returning HTTP 200 codes. Is this a problem with the Moz crawler?

Thanks for this! I didn't think to check the server logs. I'll have them checked and make sure that it's not blocking Moz out from the crawl. We have thousands of URL's on our website and quite a strict security policy on the server - so I imagine Moz has probably been blocked out.
Thanks,
Liam

Hi,
These error code's are Moz custom codes to list errors it encounters when crawling your site - it's quite possible that when you check these pages in a browser that they load fine (and that google bot is able to crawl them as well).
You can find the full list of crawl errors here: https://moz.com/help/guides/search-overview/crawl-diagnostics/errors-in-crawl-reports. You could try to check these url's with a tool like web-sniffer.net to check the responses and check the configuration of your server.

608 errors: Home page not decodable as specified Content-Encoding
The server response headers indicated the response used gzip or deflate encoding but our crawler could not understand the encoding used. To resolve 608 errors, fix your site server so that it properly encodes the responses it sends. -
803 errors: Incomplete HTTP response received
Your site closed its TCP connection to our crawler before our crawler could read a complete HTTP response. This typically occurs when misconfigured back-end software responds with a status line and headers but immediately closes the connection without sending any response data. -
902 errors: Unable to contact server
The crawler resolved an IP address from the host name but failed to connect at port 80 for that address. This error may occur when a site blocks Moz's IP address ranges. Please make sure you're not blocking AWS.
Without the actual url's it's impossible to guess what is happening in your specific case.
Hope this helps,
Dirk

Angular SPA & MOZ Crawl Issues
Website: https://www.exambazaar.com/ Issue: Domain Authority & Page Authority 1/100 I am using Prerender to cache/render static pages to crawl agents but MOZ is not able to crawl through my website (https://www.exambazaar.com/). Hence I think it has a domain authority of 1/100. I have been in touch with Prerender support to find a fix for the same and have also added dotbot to the list of crawler agents in addition to Prerender default list which includes rogerbot. Do you have any suggestions to fix this? List: https://github.com/prerender/prerender-node/commit/5e9044e3f5c7a3bad536d86d26666c0d868bdfff Adding dotbot to Express Server:

Sufficient Words in Content error, despite having more than 300 words
My client has just moved to a new website, and I receive "Sufficient Words in Content" error over all website pages , although there are much more than 300 words in those pages. for example: https://www.assuta.co.il/category/assuta_sperm_bank/ https://www.assuta.co.il/category/international_bank_sperm_donor/ I also see warnings for "Exact Keyword Used in Document at Least Once" although there is use of them in the pages.. The question is why can't MOZ crawler see the pages contents?

Open site explorer: error message "There was an error getting your data"
I"m trying out MOZ, wanting to make an informed decision (for myself and my blogging students) whether this is a useful program to buy and use. I've had no luck so far with the Open Site Explorer. Each time I try, I get the same error message, "There was an error getting your data". I used the URL: http://writetodone.com I asked about the problem in the chat, but my question was posed over an hour ago and is still marked 'unread'... I"m keen to continue studying the program as I'm creating a video about MOZ. How can I make the Open Site Explorer work? I've tried the Analytics module but it seems to take some days to get results.

Is there some way to tell the Moz crawler not to crawl URL's with particular dynamic tags such as "?redirect-to:http//" ?
We are encountering an issue where the crawler is finding a ton of pages from our wordpress login url that has this dynamic tag in it to kinds of different blog entries. It's madness. I can't figure out what is causing these URLs to generate to be crawled in the first place! Does this sound familiar to anyone out there, any constructive suggestions? Robots text or maybe meta robots tags that would resolve this crawl issue?
