Does Moz's crawlers use _escaped_fragment_ to inspect pages on a single-page application?
-
I just got started, but got a 902 error code on some pages, with a message saying there might be an outage on my site.
That's certainly not the case, so I'm wondering if the crawlers actually respect and use the escaped_fragment query parameter.
Thanks, David.

David, yes you can serve that as a solution as well and the User-agent string will be rogerbot. Sorry for any confusion this caused on your end. Once you get this up and running Roger will crawl like there is no tomorrow!

Hi James,
I can also serve the pre-rendered, static version of the website to Moz's bots. In order to detect the bots, I'll have to scan the User-Agent string.
Is it safe / enough to look for "rogerbot" in the User-Agent string?
Thanks, David.

Hi CareerDean,
At this time we are not supporting escaped_fragment for crawling websites and our crawler rogerbot will simply hit anchor tag links. I was able to take a look at your site and rogerbot will definitely have some trouble crawling anywhere here due to the lack of a hrefs.
What we have typically suggested in the past is using an HTML link at the bottom of the page leading to a basic site map so that Roger can navigate through. This will allow you to keep the same look and feel and just add one link to enable crawlers.
Please let me know if you need anything else and feel free to get us at help@moz.com with any further questions. Also feel free to ask any follow ups here as well.

I'm only seeing 3 results for DA/PA, is this a limitation?
I'm checking the DA/PA of the top 10 urls on google for a keyword, but I only get the DA/PA results for 3 of the domains, I know the other domains in the list would have results, is this a limitation on the API or should I be able to get DA/PA for more than 3 domains at a time? would it help if I only check one at a time instead of a larger set? 5dpi0h.png

API - Internal Links to page and related metrics
Hi dear moz Team! Currently I´m building a Java application accessing your API. But there are some metrics I urgently need which I can´t get out of the API until now: The total number of internal links to a page The total number of internal links to a page with partial anchor text match MozRank passed by all internal links w. part. match anchor text (would be nice) For example, if I try this by your links endpoint, my idea was: http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/links/http%3A%2F%2Fwww.jetztspielen.de%2F?AccessID=..

On Page Grader Problem-Sorry But This Page Inaccessible
Greetings: When I try to use the on page grader and enter my URL, an error message appears stating: "Sorry But This Page Inaccessible". The URL is http://www.nyc-officespace-leader.com/commercial-space/office-space and it works fine when I enter it on my browser. Any page from this domain generates this error. Is there a bug with this tool? How would I go about tracking ranking on various keywords? I see it is possible to tag keywords, and I have done so for about 250. But I don't know how to generate a ranking report for these keywords; ideally I would like to do so filtering them by the label I have applied. Any suggestions? Thanks,

Are EC2 servers blocked from using the Moz API?
Hi I've created a script that I'd like to use to check a list of domains using the Moz API. It works totally fine on my local machine. However, when I run it from my EC2 instance, it fails every time. To be specific, the response is always empty (the response is an empty json array) when the request is sent from EC2. Is, for some reason, EC2 blocked by the Moz API? Many thanks for your help, Andrew
