Remove Meta Description Errors
-
When Moz shows pages that are 404's you are able to remove them after the issue is fixed. Is there a way to do this for missing Meta Descriptions? It shows that numerous pages are missing them, but when I go look, it's already been corrected and it is still showing months later.

This should change after recrawls. A few things to check for sure:
- Syntax. Make sure the meta description tag is typed correctly.
- URL Parameters. Check to see that the missing description isn't attributable to variable or session based issue.
- Browser test. View the source of some pages as a spot check to make sure nothing is changing between the code and the public facing side of the site.
That should do it.

Meta description
Hi! I have updated my meta description a few sites on my website and for some reason when I check it on MOZ, the old meta description keeps showing up. We use a platform called Metropublisher and it is showing the updated meta description on their end, but through MOZ and Sreaming Frog, the old meta description still appears. Any ideas why this is? Thanks in advance!

612 : Page banned by error response for robots.txt
Hi all,
Link Explorer | | ME5OTU
I ran a crawl on my site https://www.drbillsukala.com.au and received the following error "612 : Page banned by error response for robots.txt." Before anyone mentions it, yes, I have been through all the other threads but they did not help me resolve this issue. I am able to view my robots.txt file in a browser https://www.drbillsukala.com.au/robots.txt.
The permissions are set to 644 on the robots.txt file so it should be accessible
My Google Search Console does not show any issues with my robots.txt file
I am running my site through StackPath CDN but I'm not inclined to think that's the culprit One thing I did find odd is that even though I put in my website with https protocol (I double checked), on the Moz spreadsheet it listed my site with http protocol. I'd welcome any feedback you might have. Thanks in advance for your help.
Kind regards0 -

803 Errors, how to deal with this?
Hello, During my last two MOZ crawls over couple of hundred 803 errors showed up. Thought that this might stop, but nop still creeping up. Not sure what has caused this. My server providers are WP-Engine and they already said that all good at their end. Pretty much all of those errors are for photos on my blog. I'm a photographer. I have a web guy as well, but he is not sure what to do now and how to get this fixed. Website is a-fotografy.co.uk Thank you and if someone could shed some light. I did research here already, but nothing what cover photo side. Regards, Armands

804 error preventing website being crawled
Hi For both subdomains https://us.sagepub.com and https://uk.sagepub.com crawling is being prevented by a 804 error. I can't see any reason why this should be so as all content is served through https. Thanks
