Why is my crawl STILL in progress?
-
I'm a bit new here, but we've had a few crawls done already. They are always finished by Wednesday night.
Our website is not large (by any means), but the crawl still says it's in progress now 3 days later.
What's the deal here?!?

Hi there!
Thanks for writing in! I checked your account it seems that the crawl was finished. Various factors sometimes can affect the speed at which Roger will check out your site, it usually tries to be as efficient as possible and not take the scenic route, every once in a while he gets stuck trying to resolve something on the site (crossword puzzle maybe) which can cause the crawl to last a little longer. We're constantly keeping track of how long the crawls take for our customers and try to come up with a better more efficient Roger!
If your next crawl is taking more than a day (24 hours), i would send us a ticket at help@seomoz.org. Thanks again for writing in!
Best,
Peter

Cool, thanks Andrea. Glad it's not just me...

I've had mine take several days and Moz has told me that's not unexpected (even if it hasn't happened to you before).
If it goes longer than let's say today, contact their help desk. It's possible something got stuck (it's happened to me) and they have a great help team who will get you taken care of. They are very responsible and approachable.

Crawl Diagnostics Summary Problem
We added our website a Robots.txt file and there are pages blocked by robots.txt. Crawl Diagnostics Summary page shows there is no page blocked by Robots.txt. Why?

Why is my domain not being crawled anymore?
I just noticed that right around 12/1/2012, SEOMoz stopped crawling all but two pages out of the 400 or so on my website at www.TrustworthyCare.com . I speculate that this is probably due to some dumb mistake I made at that time, but I can't for the life of me figure out what that mistake was. Before that, the weekly crawls included all 400 or so pages. I wonder whether it's something that changed in our .htaccess file. Here's how that file looks now; can anyone see what is wrong there, or perhaps offer other suggestions if it doesn't look like anything is wrong in it? Thanks!

Is Rank Tracker still down?
I have been trying to use Rank Tracker but it still appears to be down. The following message is displayed which dates from 5th September and suggests it would take around a week to get it working. "Due to a server failure, we are experiencing a delay in Rank Tracker results this week. Unfortunately, it may take up to a week to get it working properly again. Thanks for your patience and understanding; our engineers are working around the clock to get this issue fixed. - Updated September 5th." It is now 17th September and I am still unable to use it. Just wondering whether this is the same situation for all or whether SEOMoz have an update on when we can expect this to be up and running. Thanks.

Crawl Diagnostics - Canonical Question
On one of my sites I have 61 notices for Rel Canonical. Is it bad to have these or is this just something that's informative?

6 Months Data = Domain MozRank and MozTrust still 0.00
I have a domain with six months of data in my PRO account. The MozRank and MozTrust is still 0.00. Is this normal? If not, what on Earth am I doing wrong?!?

Campaign Not Crawling
I set up my first 5 campaigns and one is not crawling beyond one-page. It's been over 48 hours. This site has nearly 3.500 pages the others much less, however, this shouldn't make any difference. I searched for the problem and couldn't find it so I hope this question isn't redundant. Comments and advice would be appreciated.

Crawl complete, but nothing changed?
Hi everyone, According to my account, the crawl diagnostics were completed yesterday. However, the duplicate page titles that it mentions aren't correct. The changes that I implemented several days ago are not being shown in the report. When I click the duplicate page title links, the latest date in the graph is 3/26. However, it says the crawl was completed on 3/30. Does it take a few days for the reports to match what the crawl actually discovered?

The Site Explorer crawl shows errors for files/folders that do not exist.
I'm fairly certain there is ultimately something amiss on our server but the Site Explorer report on my website (www.kpmginstitutes.com) is showing thousands of folders that do not exist. Example: For my "About Us" page (www.kpmginstitutes.com/about-us.aspx), the report shows a link: www.kpmginstitutes.com/rss/industries/404-institute/404-institute/about-us.aspx. We do have "rss", "industries", "404-institute" folders but they are parallel in the architecture, not sequential as indicated in the error url. Has anyone else seen these types of error in your Site Explorer reports?
