Crawl started on the 18th of December and still hasn't completed!
-
As the title states I started a crawl over 2 weeks ago now and it still hasn't completed. Does anyone know why this could be?
Thanks

Hi Laurance,
Thanks for writing in and sorry that your crawl never completed. I'm afraid the issue is that all crawlers are being blocked in the robots.txt file of the site and we aren't able to fully access the site to complete a crawl. If you were to update the robots.txt file to allow our crawler to access the site, we would than be able to get the crawl completed for you. You can use the user-agent rogerbot to specify our crawler or you can remove the disallow: / directive from the robots.txt file to allow us access. Once you've done that, let me know and I will have our engineers complete the crawl for you.
I look forward to hearing back soon.

Hi Laurence,
What do you mean the crawl still hasn't be completed? Do you mean not all your sites are indexed?
I suggest you checking up on your Google Webmaster Tools and see how your site is doing. Once you log in, click on your website then click on the Health tab on the left hand side. You can see all your crawl stats and errors there. Furthermore, you can use the "Fetch as Google" tool and ask Google to crawl your pages again.
Another thing is that if you have a lot of pages and your pages are not interlinking correctly, it may take weeks for Google to crawl all your pages. There is not set time limit on how long it takes. Maybe submit a sitemap to speed up the process of finding all your pages?

If links have been disavowed, do they still show in crawl reports?
I have a new client who says they have disavowed all their bad links, but I still see a bunch of spammy backlinks in my external links report. I understand that disavow does not mean links are actually removed so will they continue to show in Google Webmaster Tools and in my Moz reports? If so, how do I know which ones have been disavowed and which have not? Regards, Dino

SeoMoz: Competitive domain analysis report doesn't add up?
Hi, When I check OSE against the Competitive Domain Analysis report in my account the numbers are way off. If the CDA report was 100%, OSE is showing 30% of that. I'm looking at linking root domains with no filters applied. Is the data not pulled from the same db? Thanks.

Where do these URL's come from?! (Indexation issues)
We have an international webshop with languages in the URLs. Our URLs are now set up as follows: http://thermalunderwear.eu/eng/category/product Now, we know that there's some kind of strange redirect problem causing problems with our indexation, this is a technical issue that should be fixed soon. But whether this is the cause of some other strange problems, I do not know. I'd be happy with any help/advice/tips. 1. The SEOmoz site crawler starts at http://thermalunderwear.eu. This currently does not yet redirect to http://thermalunderwear.eu/eng like we want it to, but all the links on the page do include the default language code. So all links on the page are http://thermalunderwear.eu/eng/category etc. However, apart from those URLs, the site crawler finds many URLs in the form http://thermalunderwear.eu/category/product etc., so not including the language variable. Where it gets these I do not know, and since these URLs dont exist and the webshop simply shows the homepage, these URLs all have 50+ duplicate titles/content. Why oh why? 2. If I do a Google search for indexed URL's with English as language, I get many results formatted like this: Coldpruf Enthusiast mens thermal shirt - Thermal wear for men ...

thermalunderwear.eu/eng/men/coldpruf-enthusiast-mens-thermal-shirt 170+ items – Fine-ribbed longsleeve thermal shirt men from Enthusiast ... {$SCRIPT_NAME} eng/men/coldpruf-enthusiast-mens-the {$ajax_url} http://thermalunderwear.eu/ajax What are those variables doing there? It looks like it's taking something from our Smarty debug console, which is hidden but still active in the source code, but also the ajax URL which is in a completely different location. What is Google trying to show here?0 -

Scheduling crawls between certain time periods
Hi, today SEOMoz crawled our site and it interfered with an email campaign that we sent out and pretty much brought our site to a crawl (seoMoz even reported numerous 4XX errors). Is there a way to tell the crawler to only allow indexing between certain time periods?
