How to get rogerbot whitelisted for application firewalls.
-
we have recently installed an application firewall that is blocking rogerbot from crawling our site. Our IT department has asked for an IP address or range of IP addresses to add to the acceptable crawlers. If rogerbot has a dynamic IP address how to we get him added to our whitelist? The product IT is using is from F5 called Application Security Manager.

Hi Joel,
Just wondering if you guys came up with a fix for this one? I have the same issue myself...
Thanks!

We have a similar issue where we block the Amazon cloudspace but want to allow rogerbot. Our firewall finds it much easier to block by IP range rather than user-agent (rogerbot).
Can you please tell us more about the solution you suggested?

Hi, our IP is changing all the time. We do have an option that may resolve your issue though. I'm going to create a ticket as I will need some personal information regarding your account.
Thanks,
Joel

Unsolved Getting keywords to rank on new landing pages
I've built new landing pages for a website, and have loaded them with researched keywords in the content, alt image attributes and metas etc - but, after a number of crawls, the keywords are currently being matched to other existing web pages on the website. Does anyone have any advice on 'unlatching' these keywords from these pages, and instead getting them to match with pages that have been optimised for them? Many thanks!

My homepage is not getting indexed by google for some reason
My homepage http://www.truebluelifeinsurance.com is not indexed by google. The rest of my site is indexed. The hompage is indexed by bing. I looked in the webmaster tools and there is no indication why. I believe the issue started when I did a site re-design in August. Any ideas?

Is there any way to get Moz to generate a regular (e.g. weekly) report of new links to my domain, automatically?
I want to know when new people link to my domain. I do not want to log in once a week and use a complex interface to figure this out, I want it in my inbox every week. Is there a way to get Moz to do this? (I am a PRO user) Cheers, Daniel

How do I get our full domain link profile?
With Open Site Explorer I have exported our domain link profile but I only get 65 domains returned when our marketing software reports that we have 315 . . . I know that some domains point to www.bluelink.ca which redirects to www.bluelinkerp.com. Is Open Site Explorer missing these links?

Rogerbot not showing in logs
Hi All Rogerbot has recently thrown up 403 errors for all our pages - no changes had been made to the site so I asked our ISP for assistance. They wanted to have a look at what rogerbot was doing and so went to the logs but rogerbot was not listed anywhere in the logs by name - any ideas why? Regards Craig
