      One of my squarespace sites has suddenly thrown up a number of 403 access denied errors for a range of pages on the site, according to the Moz weekly report. There is no access issues for these pages and nothing has been changes wrt url, etc..... so why the errors (which I am not seeing through SEM rush for example)?

      Thx, Phil

        Apparently there is an issue with squarepace - blocking access for mozbot.

        Check also this link https://moz.com/community/q/on-page-grader-not-working-with-squarespace - Moz is working on it but are not sure if/when this will be solved:

        "We are working with them to find a resolution to this block, but I am afraid that I am not certain if or when this will be resolved."

          Is there a reason for SquareSpace to do this? We have a number of small sites on SquareSpace and are experiencing this same issue.
