      The latest crawl on my site was the 4th Jan with a current crawl 'in progress'. How do i cancel this crawl and start a new one?

      I've been getting keyword ranking etc but no new issues are coming through.

        Unsolved Crawling error emails

        crawl error

        Recently we start having random error messages about crawling issue:
        2024-08-30 edweek:Ok
        2024-08-29 marketbrief:Err. advertise: Err, edweek:Err, topschooljobs:Ok
        2024-08-23 edweek:Ok
        2024-08-22 marketbrief:Err. advertise: Err, edweek:Err
        2024-08-21 topschooljobs:Ok, edweek:Ok
        2024-08-15 marketbrief:Ok. advertise:OK
        2024-08-13 edweek:Ok
        2024-08-12 marketbrief:Ok
        2024-08-08 marketbrief:Ok, advertise:Ok
        2024-08-03 edweek:Ok, topschooljobs:Ok
        All for 2024-07 - are Ok Yesterday I set 2 more crawls for the same sites (edweek and marketbrief) and I get a morning email about original edweek site is ok (still have some problem but crawl occurs and all is fine) but for test crawl for the same site "EW Test" I just got error email.
        Also I suppressed ALL email communications and frankly surprised by this email. Can you please check what is wrong with a crawler or stat collection or I don't know who produced the issues.

        Unsolved Crawler was not able to access the robots.txt

        robots.txt crawl error

        I'm trying to setup a campaign for jessicamoraninteriors.com and I keep getting messages that Moz can't crawl the site because it can't access the robots.txt. Not sure why, other crawlers don't seem to have a problem and I can access the robots.txt file from my browser. For some additional info, it's a SquareSpace site and my DNS is handled through Cloudflare.

        Unsolved Moz Crawl seems to be stuck?

        site crawl site crawl stuck

        Hi all, It seems like moz has been stuck on crawling our site for a while now - I had a message of 'you will get a notification for when your site crawl is complete' for about 2 weeks now, and it doesn't seem to finish it? Any ideas why this happens and how to fix it? Thank you in advance.

        Standard URL: https://skilldirector.com/news,
        Newly identified URL: https://skilldirector.com/news?offset=1469542207800&category=Competency+Management). Does anyone know where the URL comes from and how to fix it?

        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?
