Moz could not crawl my httpS website
-
Hi,
we have a website with HTTPS, moz could not crawl it and we get "902 : Network errors prevented crawler from contacting server for page" while in logs we see moz robot access but fail after some seconds, what could be the problem, while moz can access site when it is without httpS
| 902 : Network errors prevented crawler from contacting server for page. |

I check and seems that your site is OK from mine side - GCE, Amazon EC2 and in Eastern Europe. There are few issues - SSL3, weak DH and files as: https://www.pouyasazan.org/IT-news/25876/css/css/css/css/css/css/css/css/css/css/css/css/css/tooltipster.css (breaking relative and absolute path), also no 404 page because everything return "200 OK" (soft 404). But they isn't critical for your site working and it works. Server works and i just hammering it with many requests.
Please contact with Moz on mail here: help@moz.com or fill form there: https://moz.com/help/contact/pro to investigate your situation.

Did you block AWS IP range or Mozbot? Or did you applied some firewall policy?
PM me your URL so i can take a look on server and network level with different tools.

Hello Hamed!
Here's a little more information from our Crawl Errors page:
_ 902 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.
This question has come up a few times here in Q&A, so I'd recommend going to the following post for further help in getting this all diagnosed:

MOZ flagging urls as longer than 75 characters when they aren't
As an example: https://www.abthermal.com/3m-70-70hdt-self-fusing-silicone-rubber-electrical-tape.html Moz has flagged this as URL too long... but guideline is that happens at 75 characters or more? I count 55..?? or does the 75 limit have to include the domain? Thanks, Adrian

New to MOZ and working with Web Mentions. Can I use operators?
Our name is HostDime but often put as Host Dime (2 words) by news sources and other sites. How do I set up my brand mention so I only get a notice when both words appear, in order, together. I don't want "That host is a dime" and such. Can I use a +Host +Dime?"Host Dime"? Do these operators work in MOZ?
