Crawl Test taking 10+ days and still "In Progress" - normal or glitch?
-
I started a crawl test for my large site - WallStreetOasis.com - on June 20 and still have not received my results. It still says "Crawl in Progress" 10 days later. Does this seem odd or problematic, or is this normal?
-
Your best bet is to email help@seomoz.org and they'll take a look and see what's up. So sorry about the troubles!

I had had this happen several times. It's not normal. Contact support - they are very helpful. For my situation, they had to have a developer/engineer step in to get things back on track.

Thanks for your prompt reply, Patrick. Very much appreciated.
I was logged into my Wall Street Oasis campaign, and went to Research Tools > SEO Web Crawler > entered www.wallstreetoasis.com and now I've go the "Crawl In Progress" icons above both the one I submitted on 7/20 and the one from 7/30.

Problematic and not normal. Is this set up as a campaign or did you use the research analysis crawl test? If you have done one and not the other, then do the other also and see if there is a change.
We have several sites in the 10,000+ page content and it doesnt take but a couple of days.
Good luck. Hope this helps.

Crawl Diagnostics 403 on home page...
In the crawl diagnostics it says oursite.com/ has a 403. doesn't say what's causing it but mentions no robots.txt. There is a robots.txt and I see no problems. How can I find out more information about this error?

Campaign Domain "change" (www. vs no www.)
Hello, I'm tracking a domain (with www.thespin.be) since months. Last week we changed things related to domain & server and now SEOmoz has 0 pages crawled. I think that's because now my main domain is without www. (thespin.be). How can I modify my campaign to reflect this "change" (that's not really a new domain..) to avoid losing all my campaign history ? Also, on Google Webmaster Tools it's like I have 2 different sites (one with www. and another without), although I've defined my favorite domain (without www.) months ago.. Google won't update its index. And I have this problem on several other sites.. Thank you very much for giving me a feedback. Regards Jean-Louis

In OSE "Followed Linking Root Domains" = "links from homepages"
In OSE's, "Followed Linking Root Domains" are defined as "The number of root domains that have at least one followed link to a page or domain." Does this mean that if one of my competitors has, let's say, 1000 followed linking root domains, they have a link pointing to them on the homepage of 1000 other sites? Thanks for your help!

How is a site really ranking when taking into account Google places?
When I do a rankings search for one of my sites on Google and it appears high in Google places, SEO Moz tracks this as its ranking - but is this its organic ranking? My clients are wondering if things have changed and so am I? Does ranking in the Google places/map appearing on front page of google count as your ranking for that keyword? Client keeps ignoring the Google places ranking and goes looking for a placement farther down... Please explain this probably simple question to me... and if you have official Google references for this, please include them. I appreciate it a lot... be blessed ben

Crawl slow again
Once again the weekly crawl on my site is very slow. I have around 441 pages in the crawl and this has been running for over 12 hours. This last happened two weeks ago (ran for over 48 hours). Last week's crawl was much quicker (not sure exactly how long but guessing an hour or so). Is this a known issue and is there anything that can be done to unblock it? Weekends are the best time for me to assess and respond to changes I have made to my site so having this (small) crawl take most of the weekend is really quite problematic. Thanks. Mark

The "Social Media Monitoring" tool in research tools
I used this tool once and noticed it provided nice links to where listed keywords were posted in articles, forums, blogs, etc..., since that time @3 weeks ago... it lists an "error" to links and/or doesn't provide them in a linkable list below to access. Is this tool being worked on or will it be available in the future? Thank you.

Why is Roger crawling pages that are disallowed in my robots.txt file?
I have specified the following in my robots.txt file: Disallow: /catalog/product_compare/ Yet Roger is crawling these pages = 1,357 errors. Is this a bug or am I missing something in my robots.txt file? Here's one of the URLs that Roger pulled: <colgroup><col width="312"></colgroup>
