Unsolved Moz can't crawl my site
-
Moz is being blocked from crawling the following site - https://www.cleanchain.com. When looking at Robot.txt, the following is disallowing access but don't know whether this is preventing Moz from crawling too?
User-agent: *
Disallow: /adeci/
Disallow: /core/
Disallow: /connectors/
Disallow: /assets/components/Could something else be preventing the crawl?

@danhart2020 doesn't look like your robots.txt should be blocking it. Looks like it's giving roberbot (the user agent MOZ uses) a 403 error. So might be server level, is there anything in your .htaccess file or equivalent depending on server setup.
You can test your robots.txt file here and select the user agent to use:

@danhart2020 Hello, You can check your .htaccess file too sometime we use the .htaccess for the blocking from the crawling.

Unsolved Crawled 404's
Hello, I've receiving these very weird 404's that seem to be crawled by Moz. I contacted rankmath first but they told me to turn to you. So how are the url's crawled? Because these seemed to be 'glued' together. They start with myurl.nl/PAGE/NUMBER/myurl.nl again. These are two existing pages that are now stuck together and are causing 404's. Please help alt text

Unsolved Rogerbot blocked by cloudflare and not display full user agent string.
Hi, We're trying to get MOZ to crawl our site, but when we Create Your Campaign we get the error:
Moz Pro | | BB_NPG
Ooops. Our crawlers are unable to access that URL - please check to make sure it is correct. If the issue persists, check out this article for further help. robot.txt is fine and we actually see cloudflare is blocking it with block fight mode. We've added in some rules to allow rogerbot but these seem to be getting ignored. If we use a robot.txt test tool (https://technicalseo.com/tools/robots-txt/) with rogerbot as the user agent this get through fine and we can see our rule has allowed it. When viewing the cloudflare activity log (attached) it seems the Create Your Campaign is trying to crawl the site with the user agent as simply set as rogerbot 1.2 but the robot.txt testing tool uses the full user agent string rogerbot/1.0 (http://moz.com/help/pro/what-is-rogerbot-, rogerbot-crawler+shiny@moz.com) albeit it's version 1.0. So seems as if cloudflare doesn't like the simple user agent. So is it correct the when MOZ is trying to crawl the site it uses the simple string of just rogerbot 1.2 now ? Thanks

Does crawling help in optimisation.?
the website is as it was last week. no optimisation from my side for 10 days now. i was ranked 5 with my keyword not much competition there. however 2 days ago i registrred at seomoz and created a campaign for my website with my keywords that were ranked 5 in search. today i see that my rank has gone up to 2. i have nt done any optimisation neither have ii created any backlinks. so how and why did i climb up? i just created a campaign and let seomoz crawl my website for 2days. am i to assume seomoz crawl optimises website? if that is the case then can i create a campaign crawl pages, climb up in searches, delete the campaign after a week, create it again crawl pages and climb up and so on ? please advise?

If my keywords aren't driving any traffic to my site, why am I still ranking for them?
In several of our campaigns we have watched our keywords steadily climb the rankings without ever registering so much as a blip in the traffic data column. If these keywords aren't driving any traffic to our site, how are we still ranking for them?
