Never Crawled!
-
This page has not been crawled for five months: http://www.flowerpetal.com/index.jsp?info=13
1/2 that time it was linked to from the homepage of a pr5 site: http://flowerpetal.com/
Why is this the case?
-
It might be linked direct from the front page, but it's part of a set of site wide footer links, which don't really improve it's chances of being crawled.
Another issue might be that you do seem to be having a canonical problem.
http://flowerpetal.com and http://www.flowerpetal.com both resolve as separate sites, and it could be that your http://www.flowerpetal.com/index.jsp?info=13 page has been flagged as a duplicated and http://flowerpetal.com/index.jsp?info=13 has been crawled and indexed.
Your robots.txt looks weird, your're basically blocking all robots from viewing your navigation menu and a few of what I would say are some of your better pages. It's not blocking the page you've asked about but I doubt this is helping particularly.
-
Have you checked the robots.txt and/or .htaccess file to see if there is anything in these files stopping the page from being indexed?
Have you checked Google Webmaster tools to see if there are any indications of problems with crawling listed there?
These are places I would look first before looking for alternate explanations.
Hope this helps.

My guess is because this is a dynamic rather than static page. Google doesn't do well trying to index sites that have ? modifiers. Regards, Andy

No matter what we seem to do, we can never get higher up on Googles ranks. What gives?
We are in independent car dealer in a small(ish) town in Arkansas. No matter what we do, we can never seem to get past the second or third page on Google's ranks. We have a blog, we pay for SEO help from dealer vendors, we have consistent information on our site, etc. etc. . I'm at a loss. I don't know what else to do. Based on our Moz Site Crawl report, we have 185 pages that have duplicate content. However, these are pages that publish our auto check reports for inventory that potential customers request from our site. I guess these auto check reports expire because when I click on the link from the Moz report it says it can no longer be displayed and to contact the dealer (http://www.rathautoresources.com/autocheck.aspx?vin=1C6RR7KT4DS539140)

Are these Search Console crawl errors a major concern to new client site?
We recently (4/1) went live with a new site for a client of ours. The client site was originally Point2 before they made the switch to a template site with Real Estate Webmasters. Now when I look into the Search Console I am getting the following Crawl Errors: 111 Server Errors (photos) 104 Soft 404s (blogs, archives, tags) 6,229 Not Found (listings) I have a few questions. The server errors I know not a lot about so I generally ignore. My main concerns are the 404s and not found. The 404s are mostly tags and blog archives which I wonder if I should leave alone or do 301s for each to /blog. For not found, these are all the previous listings from the IDX. My assumption is these will naturally fall away after some time, as the new ones have already indexed. But I wonder what I should be doing here and which will be affecting me. When we launched the new site there was a large spike in clicks ( 250% increase) which has now tapered off to an average of ~85 clicks versus ~160 at time of launch. Not sure if the Crawl Errors have any effect, I'm guessing not so much right now. I'd appreciate your insights Mozzers!

Crawl errors for pages that no longer exist
Hey folks, I've been working on a site recently where I took a bunch of old, outdated pages down. In the Google Search Console "Crawl Errors" section, I've started seeing a bunch of "Not Found" errors for those pages. That makes perfect sense. The thing that I'm confused about is that the "Linked From" list only shows a sitemap that I ALSO took down. Alternatively, some of them list other old, removed pages in the "Linked From" list. Is there a reason that Google is trying to inform me that pages/sitemaps that don't exist are somehow still linking to other pages that don't exist? And is this ultimately something I should be concerned about? Thanks!

Google Web Master Tools show that my site has been crawled, but search results show old title tags, ect.
Does the index report reflect what will be displayed on Google results? Google seems to be indexing my site every Sunday...

How can I see what Google sees when it crawls my page?
In other words, how can see the text and what not it sees from start to finish on each page. I know there was a site, but I can't remember it.

My GWT tells me that verification has failed numerous occasions - will this stop my site being crawled?
I launched www.over50choices.co.uk 6 weeks ago and have had trouble with google indexing and crawling all pages. It tells me 143 submitted & 129 Indexed, but the site has 166 pages? It still shows the old home page image in GWT - which is v annoying! Whilst the site is verified by GA & HTML Tag, it tells me in the Verification section that "reverification failed" on numerous occasions - they seem correspond with when google trys to process the site map. Is this a coincidence ie verification fails when its trying to process the site map, which in turn is leaving me with an out of date site map and therefore not all my pages submitted or crawled? Or will this not effect the googles ability to crawl the site? Your help please. Ash

How do you handle a "too many inbound links" notice on your crawl diagnostics report?
How do you handle a "too many inbound links" notice on your crawl diagnostics report? The url's identified come from our blog....is it reading all the blog post URL's and giving me a notice? Is this ok to leave all the links? Or would anyone recommend no follow tags on all of our blog posts?

Weekly crawl or monthly crawl?
Dear SEOmoz, Thanks for all the stuff in this pro account. I tweak my websites everyday and do a lot of linkbuilding. But I noticed the statistics don't change weekly. I've been using SEOmoz tools now for maybe two months and there has been one update in stats since. Am I too impatient or is it a monthly crawl? ^^ Thanks again! PS: Mostly talking about the opensiteexplorer.org statistics
