Why isn't the Moz crawler getting all of my item pages?
-
I am stumped and Moz is being terrible to work with.
This site has about 40k pages
39,800 of them are item pages roughly.
Moz is only finding about 2400 of my pages. So they are missing most but not all of my item pages.
I do not know which item pages they are missing.
The fact that they are finding about 2k but not the rest leads me to believe the crawler is struggling with pagination.
The site is built on Magento 2 and uses the Amasty Layered Navigation extension.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Meghan from Moz pointed out I had Disallow: /*? in the robots.txt and that appears to have been the problem. It is the default Magento 2 setting, so not sure why they had that in there.

Hi Tyler, are you setting your pagination pages as nofollow? That might be causing the issue. Any chance you can post the URL and we can try crawling the site to see if we hit any issues with a crawlers like screaming frog?

When I check my this website https://joinpakarmy.com.pk/ on Moz it gives me DA 3

But when I check it out on Ahrefs, it tells me there is no authority for this site.
So who is more accurate in the result?

Moz Crawl Test Trying to Crawl Contact Form Submit Button Location?
Moz Crawl Test for some reason is trying to Crawl a contact form Widget Submit Location. My obvious guess is that obviously the crawl cannot submit to the required fields…..I believe this because they're only kicking back these errors on the pages I have a contact form widget on. http://crawfordspest.com/pest-control/crawfords@crawfordspest.com 1412553693 404 : Received 404 (Not Found) error response for page. Error attempting to request page; see title for details. 404

http://crawfordspest.com/specialty-services/crawfords@crawfordspest.com 1412553693 404 : Received 404 (Not Found) error response for page. Error attempting to request page; see title for details. 404 Can you shed any insight to this? I'm a bit worried that I'll have to complete gut the contact form which was one of the major requests my client requested. Or in a worse scenario make all fields not required. It would let so much spam in. I have never seem anything like this at all. But I've learned a lot from Moz, and with major errors like 404 damage Domain Authority greatly. I've fixed 404 issues with newly acquired clients existing sites and tracked through Moz and the domain authority flies up once these errors are fixed. Along with fixing what Webmaster Tools through Google reports back. ..... Let me know if you have any expertise on this matter.0 -

Can't get on page grader to work properly.
Hi I'm trying to optimize my pages with the on page grader tool but it keeps returning an F grade when I know my page is very well optimized. It is like something is blocking the page crawl but I have double checked my robots.txt and can't think of anything else that is causing a problem. I am trying to do www.hydrohobby.co.uk with the keyword hydroponics for starters but it is the same problem with all other page urls on my site and keywords I try to input. This is a new site made with cscart 4.0. I've graded pages on previous versions of this software with no problems. Can anyone help? Rob
