-
Got an issue sending a Crawl Request to https://www.usernamebuddy.com/ "
"804 : HTTPS (SSL) error encountered when requesting page." I have tried to recrawl several times now same issue keeps occurring.
I cannot see an error when I access the site am I missing something, if so how can I diagnose the issue and sort the problem?
I have reviewed the source and cannot use any http: resources.

Thanks for the quick reply Tawny.

Plans to upgrade the Crawl Test aren't on the road map as far as I know — our engineering resources are devoted to other areas of the tools at the moment, and the Crawl Test is pretty low priority compared to some of the sweet new things the engineers are working on at the moment. I'm afraid I don't know when or if the Crawl Test will be updated to handle SNI settings. Sorry I can't give you a solid timeframe!

Hi Tawny,
At some point is the Crawl Test going to be upgraded so it can be used on sites with SNI? SSL/TLS is becoming di rigueur, which definitely will mean more sites on SNI, and it would be nice to have the ability to perform on-demand scans.
Thanks,

Thanks Tawny.

Hey there! Tawny from Moz's Help Team here.
The reason you're getting those 804 errors is just like Joe Stoffel has suggested — SNI settings and our old crawler's inability to handle SNI compatibility settings. The new crawler, which populates data for the Site Crawl section of a Moz Pro campaign, doesn't have this issue — we've developed a solution for it and the issue is solved for campaign crawls. It's just out Crawl Test tool that still uses our old crawler and can still run into those errors.
Unfortunately, there's not much of a workaround I can offer for this one; the Crawl Test will continue to have those 804 errors and not be able to crawl any further into your site. I would recommend setting up a Moz Pro campaign for any sites you need to see Site Crawl data for.
I hope this helps! If you still have questions, feel free to drop us a line at help@moz.com and we'll do our best to sort everything out with you.

Hi there,
I think you may find the answer in this Moz thread: - 804 HTTPS (SSL) error. Are you using SNI for your security certificate? That seems to be a common issues.
Other resources to help you with this issue:

Moz Pro, our web crawler, and sites that use SNI (804 HTTPS SSL) error
Hope this helps!

H1 Errors and False Positives
Since the inception of our new website back in 2018, we have had no H1 issues, but now, we are popping positive for H1 errors. As seen in the attached image, we have H1 tags, but it doesnt seem that your crawlers are identifying them now. Is there a reason for its? qYbGp6P.jpg

Why do I get different results with On-Page Grader and Page Optimization tool? What is the difference between these two tools?
I use the Page Optimization tool to evaluate and make updates to a page until I get a grade of "A." But when I add the page and the keyword to the Page Optimization section of my campaign, it scores a 76% or 85% (which looks like a C or B to me). What would account for the difference in the evaluation results? Thanks for your help!

MOZ Staff: Timeline for supporting SNI?
We have moved our blog to Amazon Web Services, and our website is soon to follow. For better or worse, AWS uses SNI, which MOZ doesn't currently support. Here are some recent forum posts about it: https://moz.com/community/q/804-server-error-crawling-https https://moz.com/community/q/804-https-ssl-error This makes MOZ much, much less useful to me. MOZ staff, you have a timeline for when you'll implement support for SNI?

Moz is finding phantom pages
I suddenly have 4xx errors in my crawl diagnostics because pages with “/%3C/div” added to the end of the URL that are linked from the normal page can't be found. I didn't create the pages, and they don't exist, but Moz thinks that they do. I went back through to see if any changes in WordPress, theme or plugins versions might be the cause, but this is the only site that I have this issue, so I don't think that is it. Does anyone have an idea what causes this?

Can anybody help me make him understand otherwise my job will become hard if he remains doubtful about Moz? Looking for down to earth and an honest feedback. Thanks Tanveer

MozBar "Page Load Time" result -140... seconds
Hello all, I have gone through a lot of work to optimize the page size and load time for my site (http://goo.gl/0SYrns) Here is the result: http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140618_6V_PDZ/ And my competitor (http://goo.gl/j7YBcn😞 http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140618_TN_PGP/ According to that tool (and many others) my site is considerably faster than his.

Crawl Test cannot be seen on my PC. Using Windows 8.
I received and downloaded my Crawl Test. When I try to open it, my pc says "This app can't run on your PC. To find a version for your PC, check with the software publisher". I'm running Windows 8. Can I view my Crawl Test with my PC? Is there a work-around for this issue? Update I can apparently open my Crawl Test and view it as an Excel Spreadsheet. But when I download it and choose Save As, it saves it as a MS-DOS Application. This is my very first Crawl Test and I am not sure if I am doing everything right.
