sometimes web designers when they first design a website they might put the no index on every page, obviously this needs to be removed at a later date if you want to get the website indexed

We had this problem before with the website, where the blog posts couldn't be crawled.
We would highly recommend, speak to an seo agency for advice, as this can negatively affect the organic SEO if the page can't be crawled and indexed.
We had this problem with a company that sells summerhouses; the blog posts couldn't get crawled and negatively affected the organic seo.

Hi Jo,
Thanks for checking! I will ask our website provider (HubSpot) if they block AWS or rogerbot.
Thanks,

Hi there,
Jo here from the Moz Help Team.
The best way to investigate issues like this, is to start with our troubleshooting guide here https://moz.com/help/moz-pro/site-crawl/crawl-troubleshooting
I have tried this myself and I've gotten to step 3 where I can see that there is an error when I try you site in this third party status checker.
This is an indication that crawlers like ours and this tools are being blocked from accessing your site at a server level.
Please check with your website admin to see if they are not blocking AWS, or rogerbot. Once you've fixed this with your website admin you can trigger a recrawl of your site if you have a Medium subscription or higher https://moz.com/help/moz-pro/site-crawl/overview
If you're still stuck please reach out to help@moz.com.
Best
Jo

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?

I have a client who wants to have their own Moz login. I want to move them out on to a new plan from the Standard (5 campaigns) plan. Can I do this?
For years I've been managing campaigns in Moz through Moz Pro. This enables up to 5 campaigns. One of my clients wants access to their campaign and are happy to pay for a new Moz Standard account just for them. My question is - can this be done? They would like my company (or more specifically me) to still have admin access to the account. I'm confused as to whether multi-seat is the right way to go? I don't want my client to login to my current Moz Pro account as I have other client's campaigns on it. Can anyone help as to the best approach.

Crawling issue
Hello,
Product Support | | Benjamien
I have added the campaign IJsfabriek Strombeek (ijsfabriekstrombeek.be) to my account. After the website had been crawled, it showed only 2 crawled pages, but this site has over 500 pages. It is divided into four versions: a Dutch, French, English and German version. I thought that could be the issue because I only filled in the root domain ijsfabriekstrombeek.be , so I created another campaign with the name ijsfabriekstrombeek with the url ijsfabriekstrombeek.be/nl . When MOZ crawled this one, I got the following remark:
**Moz was unable to crawl your site on Feb 21, 2018. **Your page redirects or links to a page that is outside of the scope of your campaign settings. Your campaign is limited to pages with ijsfabriekstrombeek.be/nl in the URL path, which prevents us from crawling through the redirect or the links on your page. To enable a full crawl of your site, you may need to create a new campaign with a broader scope, adjust your redirects, or add links to other pages that include ijsfabriekstrombeek.be/nl. Typically errors like this should be investigated and fixed by the site webmaster. I have checked the robots.txt and that is fine. There are also no robots meta tags in the code, so what can be the problem? I really need to see an overview of all the pages on the website, so I can use MOZ for the reason that I prescribed, being SEO improvement. Please come back to me soon. Is there a possibility that I can see someone sort out this issue through 'Join me'? Thanks0 -
Crawl error robots.txt
Hello, when trying to access the site crawl to be able to analyze our page, the following error appears: **Moz was unable to crawl your site on Nov 15, 2017. **Our crawler was banned by a page on your site, either through your robots.txt, the X-Robots-Tag HTTP header, or the meta robots tag. Update these tags to allow your page and the rest of your site to be crawled. If this error is found on any page on your site, it prevents our crawler (and some search engines) from crawling the rest of your site. Typically errors like this should be investigated and fixed by the site webmaster. Can help us? Thanks!
