Moz not recognising url to setup a new account
-
I am attempting to setup a new account for my client but Moz is having a problem and not registering the url http://www.esc.uk.net/. I get the "oops" message & read the info on the FAQ page it refers to.
Why do I keep getting an "Oops" message when I type and submit my campaign URL?
To create a campaign, we need to receive a valid HTTP response from the web server hosting your site. While the site may be accessible from a standard web browser, other user-agents and search engine bots may receive a different response. If you receive this error, we recommend running a test by sending an HTTP response using any online HTTP tool.
Using an online HTTP tool I believe I received an HTTP response. What else can I do?
Regards

Hey Kimberly, thanks for writing in.
When I use the Hurl.it tool, I'm actually seeing a 500 internal server error from the site: http://www.screencast.com/t/q8ztS92saho, but that doesn't seem to be the main issue that is causing the error for our tools.
When I curl the site as Rogerbot, I get a 403 Forbidden error for our crawler: http://www.screencast.com/t/x6hfVJj85I. Unfortunately, this means that your server is specifically blocking Rogerbot from accessing the site, so you would need to work with your webmaster to white-list our crawler in order to create a campaign for your site.
Once we are allowed access to the site, the 500 internal server error would also become an issue, so I would have the webmaster for the site look into that, as well.
I hope this helps!

I am having the same problem, and it has persisted for several weeks. I am trying to set up a campaign and am getting the "Oops" message.
I have used Hurl.it to test a GET and a HEAD request; in both cases the site returns a 301 Moved Permanently response (which is correct, the url redirects to a subdomain).
Any suggestions on what else I can try? The url in question is http://texas-cash-out.com.

Hey Terry,
I know we talked in a private email about this temporary bug, but I just wanted to reply here so the post in the Q&A forum doesn't remain unanswered. I know you were able to get the campaign set up already, but please do let me know if you need help with anything else.

Can I access old data/keyword research if I cancel my Moz Pro account?
I'm currently on the free month trial period for Moz Pro and I will probably cancel the account before the free period ends, but if I want to renew my subscription later, what happens to all the previous data? And does all the keyword research I've done disappear when I cancel it, or is it restored when I renew the subscription? Any insight is helpful! Thank you!

Moz Pro Warning: Redirect Chain
I have just signed up to a Moz Pro account, and after it finished crawling my website it gave me a warning about a redirection chain. http://elementpaints.com >> https://elementpIaints.com >> https://www.elementpaints.com I'm trying to find some more information about how to fix this problem but I'm not having much luck. This article I found even says it is not a problem: https://really-simple-ssl.com/knowledge-base/avoid-landing-page-redirects So now I'm even more confused, do I still need to fix this? If so, how do I do that? FYI: I have Lets Encrypt SSL cert installed on my server, and I'm using Cloudflare with Full SSL option and HSTS enabled, and "Always Use HTTPS" option is turned on. | http://elementpaints.com |

What to believe Google's Comp or Moz's Opportunity/Potential graph
Hi! I'm newbie and I really don't know which info is best to dial in with the keywords. Google tells me that my keyword is in high competition, but Moz suggests that I have very high opportunity and potential with low difficulty with the same keyword... Maybe I need some sleep and come back later :-). Many thanks!

My question is, when you translate your website to another language, does moz crawl both or do i have to add another campaign to moz so that they can crawl it seperately?
Hello, i recently translated my website to spanish, keywords,meta tags, content etc. All of our URL for the translated pages start "ep", which symbolizes espanol. My question is, does moz crawl those pages along with my english pages? or do i have add another campaign for moz to crawl my spanish pages seperately?

Https not sticking on competitor URL
One of our competitors uses Https:// on thier search results and when we add and save it, it removes the s - we know their site ranks on specific keywords, we know this from manually searching before we got moz but moz is not showing them because it is looking for http:// not https:// How can i fix this. Also - when we first set it up, we did not add the www. and our analytics are setup as such so we show no traffic on our dashboard, but it wont let me edit to change it. Thanks

MOZ Removes WWW
I just signed up for Moz... Created my campaign. I'm noticing Moz is removing the www* from my domain. When they do analysis its wrong. when i go to google and type site:www.domain.com i have 350,000 + pages. MOZ is telling me i have 1,277 pages because its getting the external links by using *domain.com and not www.domain.com how do i force MOZ to read my domain as www.domain.com and not *.domain.com
