MOZ Crawler
-
Hi,
how much time it will take MOZ crawler to take entire site? In 24 hours it crawled only 500 pages isn't it too slow? My website has almost 50k pages.

Hi there,
Sam from Moz's Help Team here! Could you pop a message over to help@moz.com about this so we can ensure everything is running smoothly for you?
Thank you!

Yeah it will take a while but it's necessarily slow. Moz's crawler has to share bandwidth with your real, human users. If they crawl your site too fast they could lag your site or accidentally DDoS you or something
Since it's a paid for service, I'm guessing that Moz err on the side of caution with Rogerbot and don't crawl insanely fast. I know that Rogerbot supports adding a crawl delay to make the crawling even slower:
https://moz.com/help/moz-procedures/crawlers/rogerbot
But I don't think there are any 'go faster' commands. Whilst I really like Moz's crawler I tend to find that the SEMRush one is faster for on-site stuff, though it does have URL crawling caps
To be honest, just get Screaming Frog and learn how to use that. Now that it has a database storage mode (instead of maniacally trying to store all the crawl data in the RAM) - it probably could crawl all 50K URLs. It could probably do it faster than Rogerbot, though you wouldn't wanna go nutty as you could easily DDoS yourself :')

Webmaster Tools shows mystery errors that Moz does not
One of my campaigns is doing great in the sense that the website has been running fault free for a few months now. Great, of course! But... in Google Webmaster Tools errors keep coming in showing older media documents and pages. And it does not say where they are from. Probably this is more a Google question, but I thought I'd try to find some answers here first. I would appreciate any suggestions and help. Monique

Moz Crawl Test: WordPress sites with and without /feed and /trackback entires?
I have multiple WP websites and on some of the websites, on my Moz Crawl test, I see an entry for every blog post but also entries for /feed and /trackback for that single blog post. For example, www...com/someArticle www....com/someArticle/feed www...com/someArticle/trackback 1. Can anyone explain why the Crawl test is picking up the /feed and /trackback items? Is it simply because they are 301 redirects to the original post (www...com/someArticle)? 2. What setting(s) in WordPress are making this information appear? Or is it just that the site(s) that have the /feed and /trackback are displaying "normal" behavior for a WP site with a lot of trackbacks and feed entires? 3. Should /fee and /trackback, as well as /author be blocked in robots.txt? Thanks in advance for your advice and input!

Is There a Tool to Link Moz Keyword Rankings With Google Adwords Campaigns?
I wanted to know if there is a tool or other way to automatically link my Moz keyword rankings with my Google Adwords account for the purpose of allowing me to "pause" Adwords campaigns for keywords for which I rank well in the SERP's and to "activate" Adwords for keywords for which I do not rank well. Since these rankings can change from week to week, it would be great to be able to turn on and off Adwords for specific keywords depending upon my rankings that week.

My Moz domain authority fell last week but so did all 3 of my competitors. What could cause that?
As a loyal Moz Pro subscriber I track my site's authority, trust and links against 3 similar competitors. Last week my authority fell from 61 to 60 but all 3 competitors saw a drop in their authority that week too. Was the Moz domain authority calculation changed? Did anyone else see a drop or has something odd happened to just our market? Any ideas? Not sure if this is something I should address or just shrug and ignore. Cheers

Which Moz Rank and I'm seeing External or both external and internal?
I found this on the MOZ site. It confused me. "Whereas MozRank measures the link juice (ranking power) of both internal and external links, external MozRank measures only the amount of mozRank flowing through external links (links located on a separate domain). Because external links can play an important role as independent endorsements, external mozRank is an important metric for predicting search engine rankings." In the tool bar and other places in Moz am I seeing the combo Internal or the External and how do I get to each? Maybe I'm just reading this wrong. 🙂
