      Hi, I'm encountering an issue where moz scan says we have meta noindex, but I have confirmed across several of our pages that this simply isn't true. I have confirmation that the below tag is present:

      name="robots" content="index, follow" />

      I also verified our https header through https://www.webconfs.com/http-header-check.php and see nothing indicating that we are sending any no index headers.

      Why would the crawler report this when it doesn't seem to be the case? Let me know if I need to provide more information.

          Hey - Thanks for posting.

          We can certainly take a look at why we are reporting that. Can you contact support at help@moz.com with your specific campaign and example pages?

          thanks!

            Meta Robots "Index, Follow"

            In my MozBar under "General Attributes" it says "index, follow" next to Meta Roberts for one of our client's websites. I've never seen "index, follow" before. I've seen it say "not found." What does index, follow mean and is that a bad thing? I know the reason should be obvious but this site has had a lot of problems and I'm wondering if this is related.

            Why does the moz crawl test lists page twice?

            Hi, I'm running into an issue where some crawlers list my pages twice, once with a trailing slash, once without. I first saw it on a few pages with screaming frog, then saw it happen on all my pages with the moz crawler. The site is www.kidsandart.org and its on Squarespace. I grepped the sitemap.xml I submitted to google webmaster and got 167 distinct pages, all of them without a trailing slash. Any insights on why this is happening, and how to regard moz crawler results would be appreciated. thanks Tom

            Moz Crawl Test says pages have no internal links

            Greetings, I am working on a website, https://www.nasscoinc.com, and ran a Moz Crawl Test on it.  According to the crawl test, only 2 of the website's hundreds of pages are receiving internal links.  When I run a similar test on the site using Screaming Frog, I see that most of the pages have at least one internal link. I'm wondering if anyone has seen this before with the crawl test; and there is a way to get the crawl test to see the internal links? Thanks!

            Does moz Ranking report canadian rankings?

            Hi I would like to know Moz rankings can report canadian ranking or does it just focuses on US market search engines only? If it does also focuses on the canadian market, how do you set it up? Thanks

            Rel Canonical and Moz Crawl

            we have  Rel Canonical tags set up on a few pages. When viewing the page source, the tags are correct. However, Moz Crawl results show the opposite. for example the page source, correctly shows, URL  X with a Rel canonical Tag of URL Y
            but..  Moz crawl is showing URL Y with a Rel Canonical Tag of URL X ..any thoughts why this would happen? which should i trust more?

            Can I delete a SEO campaign in Moz, and start a new one for a different website?

            Would be nice to know, as I'm limited to 5 campaigns, and the most important work is done for 2 site's, so I would like to switch that to 2 other website's. Regards,
