Google plus and 404 error message
-
So this is strange - i created a bunch of pages on Google Plus - and now that I started to use MOZ I noticed that there were 95 404 errors - When I look at them I see the Google+ there ( see example) Has any one experienced this issue? If yes, anyway to fix these 404 errors? or what's the best way to address this issue?http://www.accu-time.com/solutions-2/google.com/+AccuTimeSystemsIncEllington

I'm afraid that I don't know of a way to change these other than finding them all and manually amending them. We do let you know the URLs of the referring pages so you know where to look - this is easier to see if you download the CSV file for these 404 errors from your crawl.
I think the Broken Link Checker Wordpress plugin can also offer you a list of these broken links that you can click through directly to amend them but I don't have any personal experience with this.
Sorry I can't be more help!

I understand and it makes complete sense. Thank you Lisa. One more question - as I don't have someone here to do this for me I'll have to do this myself. What's the best way to amend these links on the wordpress page? Thanks again.

Hi there!
It looks like these 404 errors are coming from improperly formatted links in your html. I've attached an image of these in the example that you gave. As these links do not contain the http:// to tell the browser that they are external to the current site, the URLs are appended to the URL of the current page.
You'll want to find and amend these links as the 404 is also being seen by users if they try to follow them.

Unsolved Problems connecting to different Google Analytics property
I am having problems connecting to different Google Analytics property than the one I originally connected my campaign to. I have tried disconnecting and reconnecting to the correct property however 'traffic data' shown is not updating and is still showing data from the original property that i connected to? Can anyone help explain how i can get the data showing in 'traffic' section to update to the current Analytics property that is connected to the campaign? Many thanks.

Crawl error robots.txt
Hello, when trying to access the site crawl to be able to analyze our page, the following error appears: **Moz was unable to crawl your site on Nov 15, 2017. **Our crawler was banned by a page on your site, either through your robots.txt, the X-Robots-Tag HTTP header, or the meta robots tag. Update these tags to allow your page and the rest of your site to be crawled. If this error is found on any page on your site, it prevents our crawler (and some search engines) from crawling the rest of your site. Typically errors like this should be investigated and fixed by the site webmaster. Can help us? Thanks!

HTTPS (SSL) Error Encountered.
Hi guys, We received the following error from our Moz report, our hosting companies says it's isn't an issue but I wanted to get your feedback as it seems a bit odd. We recently moved eventfull.co.nz to a VPS and setup an EV SSL. We moved another site to the same VPS and added EV SSL and it isn't reporting any issue. Hosting companies feedback below error message | Crawl Error Error Code 804: HTTPS (SSL) Error Encountered Your page requires an SSL security certificate to load (using HTTPS), but the Moz Crawler encountered an error when trying to load the certificate. Our crawler is pretty standard, so it's likely that other browsers and crawlers may also encounter this error. If you have this error on your homepage, it prevents the Moz crawler (and some search engines) from crawling the rest of your site. | | I am just running some tests on the SSL cert installation now, but so far all appears to be fine. I've checked your .htaccess file and there is nothing that should be blocking them, and the logs show nothing unexpected or any SSL failures. SSL Labs test returns an A rating with no errors. One possibility (though, it's a long shot) is that we never increased the HSTS time beyond 3600, so it's possible that the crawler is failing because of this perceived insecurity. However, if there is some other issue going on, increasing the HSTS time would be a bad idea, so I suggest some further monitoring and testing. You may need to contact Moz about the issue and see if they can help. Is there any other evidence of SSL failing to load? Have you experienced any other issues, or is it only the Moz report that is indicating any problem? |
