Crawl a node js page - Why can I only see my frontpage?
-
Hi
When i am trying to crawl my website ( https://www.doorot.com/ ) it can only find my frontpage. It's a node js page. Any one had the same problem or know how to crawl my site in order to see all my pages?

Hi there!
Sam from Moz's Help Team here - I'm sorry about the trouble!
Unfortunately, this would be a result of our crawler's inability to work with Javascript. If your site is primarily Javascript, then the data you get back with regards to the crawl report won't be completely accurate because of this. There's no real work around that I can recommend for this one, since it is a technical limitation, but I did find some good blog posts and discussions in the Q&A about this when I searched our Help Hub. While the tools and data that rely on our crawl of your site may not return the best results because of that Javascript, your keyword rankings and link profile should work just fine.
You might also want to check out a few tools that are compatible with Javascript, like Botify or Screaming Frog.
I'm really sorry I can't be of more help here; I'll definitely be sure to pass this along to our Product team as feedback on your behalf. Please let me know if there's anything else I can help with, or if there are any follow-up questions you might have!

Crawling 4XX errors because of URL accented
Hello guys, I am experiencing crawling errors in Moz because the URLs read by spiders contain accents and special characters, which I know isn't best but yet my client needs to keep it. I know that Moz "uses percent encoding to parse the HTML in the source code, so any line breaks and spaces in your HTML links or sitemap links are converted to %0A and %20, causing a 404 error". Is there any way to avoid these errors happening in the dashboard? Or am I supposed to simply ignore it?

Internal Equity-Passing Links not getting crawled in Moz Open Site Explorer?
Internal Equity-Passing Links not getting crawled in Moz Open Site Explorer. What is the cause of this? We've checked the robots.txt and htaccess file, but so far we can't find anything that would be blocking Moz from crawling the internal links. We manage loads of other clients on this platform and this is the first time we've run into this issue. What else can I check?

Open Site Explore page titles show as "No Title"
This has been asked many times but I cannot find an answer. On Open Site Explorer, most URLs I enter show as "No title" which means you have to hover over the URL to see which page is being referred to. I know you'd want an example, so here's your own site Moz.com 🙂 CWrkxZQ

Page Authority
MOZ will not recognize links to my webpage. I recently remodeled one of my pages, I understand that it is a new page and I currently don't have external links pointing to that page, but I do have internal links (i e. the category page before it) pointing to this page. Any thoughts?

"Https://" version of my home page has PA of 39, while the "https://www" version has a PA of 43?
Why would the "https://" version of my home page have a PA of 39, while the "https://www" version has a PA of 43? Is Google seeing this page as two different pages? I'm seeing different linking domains to each. What can I do to unify the two? There is already a 301 redirect in place.

How often are Moz Domain authority and Page Authority Metrics Refreshed?
How often are the MOZ metrics of DA and PA refreshed, this is because i have noticed when i conduct an Inbound link analysis of my blog, i realize that MOZ is merely detecting around 100+ only links to what is being detected on Google Webmaster Tools, any advise?

Drastic Monthly Fluctuations in Page Link Metrics
We have experienced very drastic changes in our root domain numbers and as a result, have seen an odd impact on our DA. The data does not seem at all reliable at all. We went one month with over 50 recorded root domains and the next month that dropped over 75%. It doesn't make sense to be paying for a monthly pro account when the data is so clearly unreliable. What is going on? Looking for a good answer before closing our account!
