Getting your site totally indexed by SEOMOZ
-
Hi guys!
Ijust started using SEOMOZ software and wondered how it could be that my site has over 10.000 pages but in the Pro Dashboard it only indexed about 1500 of them. I've been waiting a few weeks now but the number has been stable ever since. Is there a way to get the whole site indexed by SEOMoz software?
Thanks for your answers!

Thanks Abe!
As soon as I can analyse the whole site, including all the links, i will get back at you.
I think you got a good point about the links. I don't think SEOmoz can do anything about that

Hello,
I'm sorry that some of your pages didn't end up getting crawled. There's a lot of reasons why this could have happened, some of which have to do with our crawler, and others that have to do with a site. Basically, the crawler finds pages by crawling all of the links on the homepage/front page and then crawling all of the pages those links took him to, and so forth, until all of the pages we can find under that directory are crawled. Usually, if a page is linked to from the homepage, it should end up getting crawled. If it doesn't, it's either a sign that those pages aren't as accessible as they could be to search engines, or that there is an issue with our crawler. Some of the time, it's a problem with Javascript - our crawler can't handle Javascript very well right now. Other times, content was created a little bit after we crawled but before we finished processing and putting up the results. That content will be captured in the next crawl usually. It can also be due to meta tags or robots.txt telling rogerbot not to crawl.
On the whole, I'm not sure why some of your pages wouldn't be showing up in the crawl. Can you let me know some examples of pages that should be in the crawl but didn't end up in your campaign? If you could also outline the links going to those pages, I can send all that information over to our engineering team and we can try to diagnose the issue. Thanks a ton!Talk to you soon,

What SeoMoz tool am I thinking of?
A few months ago I found a tool on Moz that did keyword link research. It is not keyword analysis either. It took a word and turned it into links such as dir:cabinet. I can't find it or remember or it. Does anyone else know? (I know this description sucks, sorry about that)

http://footdistrict.com/new-balance-gm500mbn.html?___store=footdistrict_en
http://footdistrict.com/new-balance-m400nnb.html?___store=footdistrict_en My guess is that this is due to the fixed footer that we have set where modal windows pop up with delivery info and so on. As such, all the content within it is repeated through all the pages What do you recommend me to remove this duplicate content? I have read about duplicate content issues but they don't usually deal with div tag duplicate issues, modal windows and so on. Thanks Regards0 -

SEOMOZ Competitive Domain Analysis
Hi, I am just trying to get to the bottom of why I am seeing such wildly different figures in the SEOMOZ link analysis. The SEO company that we use is saying that we have around 331 external links to our website, when I check on Yahoo site explorer, it returns 264 external links, but in my SEOMOZ campaign manager, it says I have 4 external links? I fully appreciate that none of these methods are going to be wholly accurate, and are going to produce different results, but I can't understand why the SEOMOZ results are so vastly different. I also know for a fact there are a number of Followed links that I have added to a couple of websites, that Google has now indexed (as they appear in search results), but don't appear in the campaign manager results. If SEOMOZ use a different method to assess an external link, then no problem - my main concern here is that as a Newbie I am doing something wrong within the SEOMOZ tools, and don't want to take action based on results that may be incorrect because I have set things up incorrectly? Any help is greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Gareth
