Why has only one page been crawled?
-
I went over the list of possible reasons, but I don't think any of them apply to the site in question: sarahhueniken.com.
Any other reasons only one page would be crawled?

Hi Laura,
I'm sorry that you're having this issue! The best bet is to contact help@moz.com and we can look directly at your campaign and see what's happening. Thank you!

WAs there any update on this I am having the same issue with http://jamesramsayltd.co.uk/
-
We are currently having an issue where some campaigns are only getting a couple of pages crawled. If you send a note to help@seomoz.org we'll look into it via the help desk. Thanks!

Have the same problem here with www.apartmanyhrabovo.com, everything was working fine until today when I got the message: "Pages Crawled: 1" anyone know where the problem could be?
-
Was this the list of possible reasons you looked at? http://seomoz.zendesk.com/entries/409821-why-isn-t-my-site-being-crawled-you-only-crawled-one-page If not, that may offer some advice. Are you still having this problem, or did you figure it out?
-
As long as the other campaigns which have already crawled hundreds of pages.
Thanks!

How long have you had the Campaign set up on SEOmoz?
-
I'm not concerned about Googlebots. I'm concerned about the information about the site that I'm not getting from SEOmoz. To clarify, why isn't SEOmoz crawling the site? No point in me having an account if I don't learn anything from it.
-
The non-www version has dozens of pages indexed in Google when you use [site:sarahhueniken.com] as the query. Open Site Explorer does show links from your home page and from external pages into other pages within the site, if you select links from all pages to pages on the root domain.
-
Hmm, I've taken a look at your site, and I now realise your concern. All of the links are followed and your site looks fully index-able by the Bots...
I assume from this that the only reason the pages were not crawled was due to the lack of inbound links to your deep pages.
Bots do not necessarily crawl all pages linked to from the home page - although this is usually the case. Perhaps try writing an article about each page and submitting it to an article directory with a link pointing to each deep page. That should help!
-
Wouldn't the SEOmoz bot naturally follow all links on the homepage?
-
Crawled by what? The SEOmoz bot,or Google Bot? In both cases, it is probably down to the linking structure both internally and externally.

Should we rename and update a page or create a new page entirely?
Hi Moz Peoples! We have a small site with a simple site navigation, with only a few links on the nav bar. We have been doing some work to create a new page, which will eventually replace one of the links on the nav bar. The question we are having is, is it better to rename the existing page and replace its content and then wait for the great indexer to do its thing, or perm delete the page and replace it with the new page and content? Or is this a case where it really makes no difference as long as the redirects are set up correctly?

Why is my contact us page ranking higher than my home page?
Hello, It doesn't matter what keyword I put into Google (when I'm not signed in and have cleaned down my browsing history) the contact us page ranks higher than the home page. I'm not sure why this is, the home page has a higher page authority, more links and more social media shares, the website is an established one. When I have checked Google Analytics my home page gets more people landing on it than the contact us page. It looks like people are ignoring the contact us page and scrolling down until they find the home page. I'd appreciate any help or advice you might have. Thank you.

Sub-pages have no pa
I took over a website a few months ago which is not performing well at all for chosen keywords. When I first inspected it, I found a rel canonical tag pointing to the homepage on every page. This was quickly deleted and all the pages were fetched in webmaster tools. 3 months later and the website is still performing badly. When I use the mozbar, it shows that all of the sub-pages have a pa of 1. It is only a small site and all of the pages are linked to on the navbar in a simple way. The links are not made using javascript and all the pages are on the sitemap which is submitted to wmt. I have checked that all of the changes that have been made have been indexed as well. Could it be possible that google still sees the canonical tag even though its not there? I can't think of any other reason why the pages have no pa or why it is so far behind the competitors despite having better content and links. Also, the site is appropriate for adults, but I found (among the mess left for me) a meta ratings tag set to "general". This has now been deleted, could it negatively affect rankings?

How much SEO value does a fashion site get from bolting text onto the bottom of home page? Does the value compensate for cluttering up a page focused on an iconic image?
Getting ready to launch a completely redesigned site for a fashion designer. Since it is a fashion site, visitors do not need text to describe what the site is about., We are weighing three options: 1) clean design with no text (just images and navigational links), 2) bolting on a couple of sentences of text at the bottom of the page to signal keyword terms to the search engines, 3) following the lead of the top ranking site in the category and adding lots of text to the bottom of the page. Do the SEO benefits justify cluttering up the design by bolting text onto the bottom of the home page, and if so, how many characters of text seem to be the minimum to be effective?

What do you do with old web pages?
I have a wordpress blog that I've made a ton of changes to. I have about a dozen pages on it that have old information or I no longer have a use for. In retrospect, I probably should have used the old pages for new content instead of building new pages. Should I just leave them on the site with no links to them, should I mark them as noindex, or should I delete them? I think some of the old pages could be completing with my new pages for ranking due to similar content. Website is: http://continuumweddings.com if you'd like to check out my site. Thanks, Melissa

Page titles and descriptions
A website has several wigets to show Each wiget with its own page The wigets mostly just vary in size How would you suggest titles be done? Example: Wiget 1ft Wiget 2ft Wiget 3 ft an so on........ Would this trigger a duplicate content issue given “Wiget” leads in the page title?
