Why isn't the Moz crawler getting all of my item pages?
-
I am stumped and Moz is being terrible to work with.
This site has about 40k pages
39,800 of them are item pages roughly.
Moz is only finding about 2400 of my pages. So they are missing most but not all of my item pages.
I do not know which item pages they are missing.
The fact that they are finding about 2k but not the rest leads me to believe the crawler is struggling with pagination.
The site is built on Magento 2 and uses the Amasty Layered Navigation extension.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Meghan from Moz pointed out I had Disallow: /*? in the robots.txt and that appears to have been the problem. It is the default Magento 2 setting, so not sure why they had that in there.

Hi Tyler, are you setting your pagination pages as nofollow? That might be causing the issue. Any chance you can post the URL and we can try crawling the site to see if we hit any issues with a crawlers like screaming frog?

Can Moz Keyword Explorer help target keywords for Google Images results?
I'm wondering if I can use Keyword Explorer (or maybe another tool?) to target keywords for image rankings. I'd like to play around with optimizing images so that they appear in search results and thus provide traffic - but wasn't sure the best way to track that kind of progress. My ultimate goal is to analyze the difficulty of ranking for a certain keyword via Google images. (I do know to optimize alt tag/title tag/place in relevant article etc, but wanted to know if I could research the difficulty). Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Who and how does one get in Fresh Alerts?
Who and how does one get in Fresh Alerts? This is such a great tool! Thank, Moz! I would like to use this more often and to a better advantage. Can someone help me understand what criteria the tool uses to choose who it and what it picks up? Why would someone's personal family gathering turn up in my Moz Fresh Alerts("Minneapolis home buyers"? http://mydesultoryblog.com/2014/07/having-a-great-time-with-katelyn-and-drew-in-wayzata-mn/ My Desultory Blog Desultory thoughts on a variety of subjects … Having a great time with Katelyn and Drew in Wayzata, MN It seems completely random when and which of my blog posts show up in Moz Fresh Alerts. For example one that did ("Minneapolis real estate sellers"): "5 Critical Shifts in the Twin Cities Housing Market" http://www.homedestination.com/real-estate-blog/4-critical-shifts-in-the-twin-cities-housing-market Jeannie

Moz Crawl Showing Duplicate Content But It's Not?!
Unfortunately I can't give out the URL, but here's the deal... I have two URL's which have completely different content on them but are being crawled as duplicate content. Any Idea how that would happen? I'm not seeing any errors in WMT's. Has anyone seen this before? Is the duplicate content reporting based on a % of the page content matching as the same?
