Site Crawl Status code 430
-
Hello,
In the site crawl report we have a few pages that are status 430 - but that's not a valid HTTP status code. What does this mean / refer to?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes#4xx_Client_errorsIf I visit the URL from the report I get a 404 response code, is this a bug in the site crawl report?
Thanks,
Ian.

Which, of course, you can't do in Shopify.
Maybe we should just collectively get on Shopify to implement this by default.

It's all in this help document:
https://moz.com/help/moz-procedures/crawlers/rogerbot
"Crawl Delay To Slow Down Rogerbot
We want to crawl your site as fast as we can, so we can complete a crawl in good time, without causing issues for your human visitors.
If you want to slow rogerbot down, you can use the Crawl Delay directive. The following directive would only allow rogerbot to access your site once every 10 seconds:
User-agent: rogerbot
Crawl-delay: 10"
So you'd put the specified rule in your robots.txt file

This is happening to a client of mine too. Is there a way to set my regular MOZ Pro account to crawl the site slower?

This is a common issue with Shopify hosted stores, see this post:
It seems to be related to crawling speed. If a bot crawls your site too fast, you'll get 430s.
It may also be related to the proposed, 'additional' status code 430 documented here:
"430 Request Header Fields Too Large
This status code indicates that the server is unwilling to process the request because its header fields are too large. The request MAY be resubmitted after reducing the size of the request header fields."
I'd probably look at that Shopify thread and see if anything sounds familiar

@Angler - yeah thought the same - but why not log it as a 403 in the report. The site is hosted on Shopify - so don't get access to logs unfortunately.
Was wandering if it was related to rate limiting as in a few cases it's a false positive and page loads fine.
Have emailed Eli - thanks,
Best.
Ian.

Crawl test
I used to use the crawl test tool to crawl websites and it presented the information in a really useful hierarchy of pages. The new on-demand crawl test doesn't seem to do this. Is there another tool I should be using to get the data?

"Our crawler was not able to access the robots.txt file on your site."
Hi Mozzers! I've received an error message saying the site can't be crawled because Moz is unable to access the robots.txt. I've spoken to the webmaster and he can't understand why the robot.txt can't be accessed as this seems to be fine: https://k3syspro.com/robots.txt and Google isn't flagging anything up to us. Does anyone know why this may be? Thanks, Matthew

Receiving 4XX status codes
_Can someone help explain this error and the best fix for it. The host says the script maybe looking for an SSL but that made low/no sense. Your input it greatly appreciated. 4XX status codes (i.e., a 404 Not Found error) are shown when the client requests a page that cannot be accessed. This is usually the result of a bad or broken link. These issues should be kept to a minimum if possible. Make sure no internal links on your site are broken. For external links to your site, try contacting the linking site's owner and asking them to fix or update the link. _

Deleting a site
If we have a 3 of 5 of our "active site" allocation currently used, and then delete one, would we then only have 2 of 5 sites active sites used? Or would the previously used active site still count against our allocation?

Why hasn't my site info shown up yet?
I set up a campaign a few days ago (middle of last week) and the information still hasn't shown up. I figured that analytics were gathered weekly so I let it sit until Monday, but it still tells me to check back in 24 hours. Thanks for your help! Love the suite, by the way - lots and lots of great tools and easy enough to let my client see what's going on!
