How do I force a crawl?

[ilhaam]

In the campaign overview it reads that 0 pages were crawled. Also got an email saying that a comprehensive audit will be done in 7 days. But the 'crawl in progress' wheel disappeared. I think it stopped, and I need to submit that report to substantiate buying the tool!

How do I force a crawl?

When did you add the campaign? You will have some information but not all of the report within a few hours.  If not you could always delete the campaign and add it again if you think there is an issue.

You might also want to try the Crawl Test tool at http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/crawl-test
This tool crawls up-to 3000 pages for any website and I think for PRO you are allowed 2 crawls every day.

P.S. At the time of writing this reply, I see my crawls from yesterday and day before are still pending, so there might be something going on with the Roger bot.

Hi Ilhaam,

Thanks for writing in and sorry that you didn't receive a full crawl. Unfortunately, we had an issue with our crawler starting yesterday evening that caused some crawls not to complete properly. Our engineers have already completed a fix for this problem and we have gotten you a full crawl now. You should be able to access the updated data on your account now.

If you're still running into any issues, please email us at help@seomoz so we can look into the issue for you.

Thanks a lot for the feedback everyone. I see it's crawled 11k pages now. @NakulGoyal you said that we're allowed 2 crawls per day - how do we action/ initiate these crawls?

That is not through the campaign, it's through the Crawl Test Tool at http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/crawl-test
