Moz crawls
-
Hi all! I'm running two separate campaign crawls at the moment that I'm having a few issues with. The first is http://www.muchbetteradventures.com/.
I'm tracking this at root to try an pick any problems with a previous version of the site, which is on the v1.muchbetteradventures subdomain. However, I'm only seeing 100 or so pages as being crawled in Moz, compared to thousands in Google. There's no access blocked alerts in Moz either.
The second is http://www.sothebys.com/. I started this crawl at root a few days ago and no pages at all have been processed. Very odd!
Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks Reuben! Just getting my head around Screaming Frog! Can it be used to flag up duplicate content issues like Moz?

Hello and great question! If you are ever missing pages from your crawl, you can always email help@moz.com with the name of the campaign and a couple examples of missing pages. We can usually diagnose this issue pretty quickly. In a lot of cases, this could be due to the way some domains are forwarded or redirected. I encourage you to email us the issue with a few examples so that the Help Team, including myself, can dig in and figure out whats going on. Sorry for the delay, I hope we can help get to the bottom of your crawl issues.

1. Google's index may or may not be reflective of the pages you actually have on your site—likely the latter, hence the difference between the pages on your site and the pages in Google's index. Right now, the v1 subdomain times out, so no crawlers will be able to do anything with it. The www domain only has about 250 or so URLs.
2. Sotheby's website blocks all but a few crawlers, which is why Moz would not crawl any pages. http://www.sothebys.com/robots.txt
I would suggest using your own crawling software to untangle these issues. If you aren't familiar with Screaming Frog, you should check it out.

Unsolved No replies from help@moz.com - one of our IPs is blocked by Cloudflare so we cannot access Moz Community from there
Hi all,
Product Support | | DanielDL
I am a bit at my wits end trying to get some acknowledgement from MOZ. Have had no replies, no ticket auto-replies, no updates on any of the messages I have sent via the Moz Help Form on the website. Literally nothing. I wanted to avoid having to post publicly, but does anyone know how to raise a "technical problem" ticket with MOZ? help@moz.com never replies and the Help Form doesn't generate any kind of ticket. From our main office we get an "Access denied" Error (via Cloudflare) specifically for the Moz Community area. This happened to us in February of this year and has been happening again all through May. After testing ourselves with our IT, we determine that MOZ's Cloudflare account has incorrectly blocked the dedicated IP address specific to the internet connection at our head office. This means that none of our Moz User accounts can access anything related to the Community area in our account when working at the studio. We can only do so when working remotely (ie. some other IP address). This is incredibly frustrating, particularly as we've been on a proper paid MOZ account for many years. And I have sent numerous email requests, messages via the Form, etc., and have never heard back from anyone at all. The problem has been on-going for some time and I guess it is my fault because I tried to politely wait a fair amount of time between each follow-up. Only to realize that, actually, I don't think anyone is monitoring help@moz.com or even the Form submissions, or are even looking into the issue for me. Am hoping this message is seen by someone at Moz so they can let me know what is going on please? Guys..... c'mon.....0 -
I have assigned a Moz Pro seat to someone but they can't access a campaign's rankings report?
Hi there, I'm the account admin on a Moz Pro account. I have assigned a seat to a freelancer who's doing some work for me and they say they can't access a campaign's rankings report? The manage user's section shows them as having a seat license? It's been issued and accepted by them? Any ideas here? Thanks

Moz keeps logging me out
Why moz keeps logging me out? It's annoying that I have to keep putting my credentials after checking the "remember me" checkbox.

MOZ refusing access to certain sections of the website if using VPN?
I've used PIA and expressvpn before without any problems. Today I got nordvpn and when I try to access my campaigns and link explorer but the connection is being refused while I can access billing and the forum section. I don't have this problem anywhere else atm so I think this might not be a problem from my side but rather from these specific sections. Edit: Any idea what's going on?

Still no invite to site crawl beta! Why bother?
Well, I was informed that I was en-queue to be invited to the Moz Site Crawl v2. I have several client sites making use of SNI b/c, well... CDN's. What is the point of telling me I may receive an invitation shortly, then hearing nothing back and not being able to crawl their sites... this makes this service 100% useless as I can simply use a couple of different tools (free) to perform the same tasks... don't get me wrong... I would rather use Moz and this is not intended to flame the service as I think it could be great... if only it worked. I cannot justify the lack of response, nor the lack of service (what we intended to use here) for the price. It seems like this is simply a waiting game wherein Moz expects me to pay for this service and THEN I will receive my invite? Is it at all possible that anyone can look into this and/or my invite status. If I cannot sample these features before long, you've lost a solid potential client. (Not my loss)

Why didn't the Moz rankings change yesterday?
As of this morning, the Domain Authority section on our campaign still reads: "Next scheduled update: Jan 25, 2017 PST" and nothing has changed - it is still showing our old DA and how much it went up since last time. Is this a problem on our end, or is Moz experiencing difficulties with DA updates? Thanks in advance!

Received emails about new ranking, crawl and on page reports, but nothing new shows.
Yesterday morning I had emails about updated crawl, ranking and on page reports being available however nothing in my dashboard is newer than 2/21. I waited through yesterday to see if things changed, logged in and out etc but nothing new has shown up. Any ideas on why that is the case?

Anybody know how to merge an old inactive Moz account with a current live Moz account?
I had an old Moz account with my name, profile, etc. that I don't want to lose. By accident, when I created my current subscription, I ended up creating a brand new account. The old account has my bio, Moz points, etc. that I don't want to lose, but the new account has my campaigns. Any way to bring the two accounts together?
