We recently switched from HTTP to HTTPS and we are having crawling issues!
-
We switched our website from HTTP to HTTPS and we started to get an email from Moz about the robots.txt being unable to crawl our website. The website is hosted through wordpress but we haven't had any issues until we switched. We have no idea what to do or even what the problem is! If you have had a similar problem and fixed it, we need your help! Thank you.

I know this is an old thread, but we are still having the same problem. I finally got around to sending a note to flywheel about this problem and it came back that everything is fine. I am not sure what to do here? It's on a shared hosted, so I don't have console\audit log access, however Flywheel is one of the best wordpress hosting companies out there (only thing they do).
As far as accessing the robots.txt file, I can go directly to it without any problems?

Hi there!
Thanks so much for reaching out! I'm sorry you're having trouble!
I took a look at your crawl data and your site to see if I could figure out the issue. When I first tried to access your robots.txt file from a browser, it returned an error saying there were too many redirects in place. I checked to see what our crawler was receiving from your server and looks like it keeps being served a 301 redirect which points back to itself. However, when I tried to access the file from a browser a bit later, it loaded without a problem. I'm wondering if you can check your server logs to see what your server is sending back to our crawler Rogerbot?
If you could send any further info over to help@moz.com, that would be great! That way we can do some more digging and see what's going on.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

Moz Site Crawl can't index WIX sites
We've been attempting to work on some SEO for a new potential client however they are using a WIX site. We've noticed that Moz SEO tools will not index any WIX sites. e.g. https://www.sharonradisch.com/ (which is one of their case studies). Anyone seen this that can offer any advice? Thanks,

Moz only crawling one page of a campaign, please help
Today I set up a new campaign for a client, however the crawl has only found the home page and is saying that the URL is unavailable. The site is definitely live and the URL is correct. I have set up the campaign 3 times one with the full address (http://www.) one with www. and with just the domain name. All three of these have come page with one page crawled and "unavailable" above the URL. It is picking up the crawl issues on the page and showing domain authority but I don't know why it's not crawling other pages. Prior to setting up the campaign I did a site crawl and Moz found everything then, so I don't know why it isn't now. Please help. Thanks

901 error code showing url back to back in crawl
Hi Everyone, I'm absolutely dumbfounded about this 901 issue (showing pages with our url back to back). Our site is hosted on Big Commerce: https://www.santabarbarachocolate.com When I look for these pages being crawled I don't find them. I've called BC for help and I can't seem to find a solution or where to turn as to how to fix the issue at hand or even if it matters. Please see below what the Moz crawl shows. Could this be related to Yotpo or some app we have running? Or does this even matter and does it have any influence on rank? Do you have recommendations or ideas? Thanks so much. Pages with Crawl Attempt Error as of Mar 3 URL Page Authority Linking Root Domains Status Code | Error Code 901: DNS Errors Prevented Crawler from Resolving Hostname http://www.santabarbarachocolate.comhttp/www.santabarbarachocolate.com/100-percent-pure-cacao-unsweetened-baking-chocolate -- -- 901 Error Code 901: DNS Errors Prevented Crawler from Resolving Hostname http://www.santabarbarachocolate.comhttp/www.santabarbarachocolate.com/buy-wholesale-bulk-chocolate -- -- 901 Error Code 901: DNS Errors Prevented Crawler from Resolving Hostname http://www.santabarbarachocolate.comhttp/www.santabarbarachocolate.com/organic-chocolate-wholesale | -- | -- | 901 |

What are the solutions for Crawl Diagnostics?
Hi Mozers, I am pretty new to SEO and wanted to know what are the solutions for the various errors reported in the crawl diagnostics and if this question has been asked, please guide me in the right directions. Following are queries specific to my site just need help with these 2 only: 1. Error 404: (About 60 errors) : These are for all the PA 1 links and are no longer in the server, what do i do with these? 2. Duplicate Page Content and Title ( About 5000) : Most of these are automatic URL;s that are generated when someone fills any info on our website. What do I do with these URL;s. they are for example: _www.abc.fr/signup.php?_id=001 and then www.abc.fr/signup.php?id=002 and so on. What do I need to do and how? Plzz. Any help would be highly appreciated. I have read a lot on the forums about duplicate content but dont know how to implement this in my case, please advise. Thanks in advance. CY
