      Hi all,

      im facing an issue where moz crawler is unable to crawl my site. The following error keeps showing Our crawler was banned by a page on your site, either through your robots.txt, the X-Robots-Tag HTTP header, or the meta robots tag.

      This is my robots.txt file : https://www.wearefutureheads.com/robots.txt

      I'm not sure what else am I missing.. can anyone help

          Blocking in Robots.txt and the re-indexing - DA effects?

          robots.txt indexation

          I have two good high level DA sites that target the US (.com) and UK (.co.uk). The .com ranks well but is dormant from a commercial aspect - the .co.uk is the commercial focus and gets great traffic. Issue is the .com ranks for brand in the UK - I want the .co.uk to rank for brand in the UK. I can't 301 the .com as it will be used again in the near future. I want to block the .com in Robots.txt with a view to un-block it again when I need it. I don't think the DA would be affected as the links stay and the sites live (just not indexed) so when I unblock it should be fine - HOWEVER - my query is things like organic CTR data that Google records and other factors won't contribute to its value. Has anyone ever blocked and un-blocked and whats the affects pls? All answers greatly received - cheers GB

          Unsolved Moz can't crawl my site

          crawl error crawl errors

          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?

          Moz rank tracking with new subpage address

          Hello, I have built a new website and the subpages web address are new. I haven't made a redirect yet but I am about to do it. How do I continue keeping track of my ranking evolution in moz. Do I need to indicate the new web address ? or once the redirect will be done will moz continue the tracking of my keywords showing the old web address but tracking the new address ? Thank you,

          Crawl Issue

          Hi, We have 3 campaigns running for our websites in different territories. All was going well until April 11th when Moz reported that our .com site (sendmode.com) could not be crawled.  I get this error "Your page redirects or links to a page that is outside of the scope of your campaign settings ..." I've been through the site a number of times but have been unable to get to the root of the problem. Robots.txt and 301's look fine. Is there any way I can find out which page is causing the issue? John

          Moz having a few issues with their site?

          I've seemed to have a load of issues as of late. Just small graphical things but still enough to make me concerned. 1. https://moz.com/community/users/4207879 being noindex (however it seems to other users an external tools work) (image proof: https://i.gyazo.com/2e77c94ffd068718e9e149e8afef1e44.png ) 2. No mozpoints: https://gyazo.com/9e0777af3ebbdb6ad58a395bafe28a52 3. I'm a staff member? https://i.gyazo.com/5d7b156c13fa1d0bb6c2e0af3467423f.png 4. Trying to respond when logged out: https://i.gyazo.com/9f5fe8efd372920391a9a54178561e0b.png (not really a bug, however could be a better experience) These have all been sent via support, just wondered if it was just me having issues? Seems i'm staff on this one too: https://i.gyazo.com/6f1bc6372180f4f9f1cb1c7d6f6d941c.png

          Number of pages crawled = 1; Why?

          Since November, we've been trying to figure out why, when I select Crawl Diagnostics, my number of pages crawled is only 1. In mid-november, we changed our URL. That is, we went from www.example.com/home-page/ to www.example.com/new-home-page/. My first assumption was that I needed to re-create my Moz profile. That didn't fix it. The only crawl error we get is the no rel="cannonical" found -- but it's there. We find it on every page, including the home page. Our content shows up in search. Moz bar shows us info for every page. I just don't know what else to check. Everything else in my dashboard seems to look as expected. Specifically, I've turned to Crawl Diagnostics to find 4XX errors on our site. Typically we find one or two per week. Sometimes 0. Sometimes 4 or more. But it's been 0 since November. I highly doubt we've arrived at perfection. Any thoughts?

          Deleting a site

          If we have a 3 of 5 of our "active site" allocation currently used, and then delete one, would we then only have 2 of 5 sites active sites used? Or would the previously used active site still count against our allocation?
