Crawl went from a few errors to thousands when I added Blog
-
I am new here. I recently got the errors from SEOmoz crawl on my site down to just a handful from a couple hundred. So I took the leap and moved my blog to www.mysitename.com/blog (which I see recommended here) and now my errors are in the thousands.
My blog which was a separate url has pages back to 2007.
I am not sure if it is appropriate to post my site url in a question here?
One error that really stands out is this:
Description
<dd>Using rel=canonical suggests to search engines which URL should be seen as canonical.</dd>
On my root page I have:
rel="canonical" href="http://www.mysitename.com"/>
Thanks for any help...

Thats not the ones you get with a pro account, but it prooably does much the same.
I use the Bing SEO Toolkit to crawl your site. But SEOMoz should find much the same

Is this the Crawl Test?

To use SEOMoz crawler I rgink tou need to be a memeber,
You can use Bing or Google WMT tio find them.
I can assure you you have more then 2

Can you tell me where to look for SEOMoz list of broken links?
-
I found over 300 broken links, that was only a sample, i would suggest there is many more.
Hiow many did SEOMoz report.
-
removed link name
-
What is the URL i will tell you if they are real of not.
-
Yes it is a "notice", so it is just information to me not an error.
Thank you!
I also have several 404 Red Status Codes any idea what these are?
I read the recent posts about them and that they may disappear on a future crawl...

This canonical error is a notive not a error correct?
if so it is just letting you know they are there, it is important you dont have canonicals in pages and not know.
Canonicals in every page pointing to itself was seen as a good idea to help protect against screen scaping, but recently Bing has said that it is a incorrect use and that they will lose trust in your canonicls if used in this way.

503 Error or 200 OK??
So, in a Moz crawl and a Screaming From crawl, I'm getting some 503 Service Unavailable responses on the some pages. So I go to the pages in question, and the Moz bar is showing a 200 OK. The SEOBook http status checker (http://tools.seobook.com/server-header-checker/) also shows a 200 OK. What gives? The only reason I'm looking at this is because rankings plummeted a couple of weeks ago. Thanks! UPDATE So, I decided to use the mozbar to set the user agent as Googlebot and when I tried to access the pages in question I receive this message. I don't think this is an issue... anyone else have much experience here? Your access to this site has been limited Your access to this service has been temporarily limited. Please try again in a few minutes. (HTTP response code 503) Reason: Fake Google crawler automatically blocked Important note for site admins: If you are the administrator of this website note that your access has been limited because you broke one of the Wordfence firewall rules. The reason you access was limited is: "Fake Google crawler automatically blocked". If this is a false positive, meaning that your access to your own site has been limited incorrectly, then you will need to regain access to your site, go to the Wordfence "options" page, go to the section for Firewall Rules and disable the rule that caused you to be blocked. For example, if you were blocked because it was detected that you are a fake Google crawler, then disable the rule that blocks fake google crawlers. Or if you were blocked because you were accessing your site too quickly, then increase the number of accesses allowed per minute. If you're still having trouble, then simply disable the Wordfence firewall and you will still benefit from the other security features that Wordfence provides. If you are a site administrator and have been accidentally locked out, please enter your email in the box below and click "Send". If the email address you enter belongs to a known site administrator or someone set to receive Wordfence alerts, we will send you an email to help you regain access. Please read our FAQ if this does not work.

Noindex/nofollow on blog comments; is it good or bad ?
Hi, I changed the design of one my wordpress website at the beginning of the month. I also added a "facebook seo comments" plugin to rewrite facebook comments as normal comments. As most of the website comments are facebook comments, I went from 250 noindex/nofollow comments to 950; URL's are ?replytocom=4822 etc. Moz campaign noticed it and I'm asking myself : is it good to have comments in noindex/nofollow ? Should I do something about this ? Erwan.

1 page crawled ... and other errors
1. Why is only one (1) page crawled every second time you crawl my site? 2. Why do your bot not obey the rules specified in the robots.txt? 3. Why does your site constantly loose connection to my facebook account/page? This means that when ever i want to compare performance i need to re-authorize, and therefor can not see any data until next time. Next time i also need to re-authorize ... 4. Why cant i add a competitor twitter account? What ever i type i get an "uh oh account cannot be tracked" - and if i randomly succeed, the account added never shows up with any data. It has been like this for ages. If have reported these issues over and over again. We are part of a large scandinavian company represented by Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland. The companies are also part of a larger worldwide company spreading across England, Ireland, Continental Europe and Northern Europe. I count at least 10 accounts on Seomoz.org We, the Northern Europe (4 accounts) are now reconsidering our membership at seomoz.org. We have recently expanded our efforts and established a SEO-community in the larger scale businees spanning all our countries. Also in this community we are now discussing the quality of your services. We'll be meeting next time at 27-28th of june in London. I hope i can bring some answers that clarify the problem we have seen here on seomoz.org. As i have written before: I love your setup and you tools - when they work. Regretebly, that is only occasionally the case!

Find 404 errors
Seomoz is currently reporting 404-errors, without saying where these errors are found. What good is this report when it does'nt say a word about where I can find the page linking to the 404? Screen: http://filer.crenia.no/NJPZ I really think it's time for Seomoz to prioritize upgrading the pro tools. Feels like they haven't been updated in ages..

Crawl reports, date/time error found
Hello! I need to filter out the crawl errors found before a certain date/time. I find the date and time the errors were discovered to be the same. It looks more like the time the report was generated. Fix?

Adding LinkedIn to the new Social Media tool
I am loving the new Social Media data that SEOMoz recently added. I am sure more will come soon, but I wondering if they have plans of adding LinkedIn Company pages as apart of a campaign to track. Does anyone have the inside clue about this? Do you think it would be a good idea as well?
