Moz was unable to crawl your site on Jun 22, 2020\. We were unable to access your site due to a page timeout on your robots.txt, which prevented us from crawling the rest of your site.

Site: www.kpmg.us
Getting robots.txt timeout fail since 02/29/20. We've checked our server logs and see no errors. Went through all the steps of the "Troubleshooter".
Updated robots.txt to allow rogerbot full access:
User-agent: rogerbot
Disallow:Any ideas how to get roger to crawl my site????
-
Back to the "We were unable to access your site due to a page timeout on your robots.txt".
Could it be the sitemap.xml page specified in the robots.txt is too slow?
Sitemap: https://www.kpmg.us/sitemap.xml -
OK. Got a different error: Your site crawl timed out due to a slow server response. Passing this along to IT.
-
We fixed the situation where the robots.txt files download (see: https://www.kpmg.us/robots.txt) but rogerbot still cannot crawl the site due to some "timeout" issue on the robots.txt.
-
Hmmm, seems all our robots.txt files download as text files. But the others (ex: advisory.kpmg.us/robots.txt) work with rogerbot. I've asked our IT folk to see how were serving .txt files.

Hi there, thanks for reaching out!
Is the robots.txt for your site located here: "https://www.kpmg.us/robots.txt"?
If so, the issue may be that the robots.txt downloads as a text file which our crawler, rogerbot will be unable to follow. If our crawler is unable to access to the robots.txt it will cause the crawl to fail.
If you're still having issues, please feel free to reach out to the help@moz.com

Crawl depth seems off?
I'm reviewing my site crawl data and am seeing some very strange things such as: The homepage URL has a listed crawl depth of 2. Pages that are featured in the main site navigation (which is present on all pages, including homepage) are ranking at a crawl depth of 3. What am I missing here? Shouldn't my homepage have a crawl depth of 0 or 1? Why would pages linked directly from my homepage have a crawl depth other than 1? (Single click from homepage to that page)? Thank you!

Moz Pro: Filter inbound links by partial anchor text?
My site has been targeted by a spam farm with hundreds of different domains, all linking to images on our CDN with similar variations of anchor text, eg: get free high quality hd wallpapers wedding cake makers
Link Explorer | | James_NZ
get free high quality hd wallpapers hairstyle makeover
get free high quality hd wallpapers living room cafe
etc Is it possible within Moz Pro to filter all incoming links with anchor text including "free high quality hd wallpapers" so that I can disavow all of the domains en masse? So far I've only been able to display/download the list of links exactly matching the full anchor text which is very time-consuming with 100+ variations. Regards,

Moz Crawl Issue?
So I've been looking over my latest crawl and two of each category appears, the only difference between them is a / at the end, i.e. http://thespacecollective.com/space-clothing/ http://thespacecollective.com/space-clothing One brings in a 200 code while the other brings in a 301. Given that the 301 is in place I know Google won't see it as a duplicate, but I'm curious as to why Moz picks up on this and whether or not there is an issue that needs addressing here?

Moz crawling bot
Hi guys, in OpenSiteExplorer -> Top Pages, there are no page titles displayed in a raport for certain domain, and "HTTP Status" column shows: "Blocked by robots.txt". I tried to find out what the ID of Moz crawling bot is, and on this page: http://moz.com/community/q/seomoz-spider-bot-details someone says it's: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; rogerBot/1.0; http://www.seomoz.org/dp/rogerbot). However, my robots.txt doesn't have such entry. Take a look: Automatically banned scanners and crawlers section User-agent: 008 Disallow: / user-agent: AhrefsBot Disallow: / User-agent: MJ12bot Disallow: / User-agent: metajobbot Disallow: / User-agent: Exabot Disallow: / User-agent: Ezooms Disallow: / User-agent: fyberspider Disallow: / User-agent: dotbot Disallow: / User-agent: MojeekBot Disallow: / Section end What could be the problem here, then? Why does the Moz bot think I'm blocking it?
