      Last night I found out through Moz that my robots.txt file was blocking any crawling of my website. I fixed the issue. Now do I just sit and wait?

        Moz will crawl the site every week so you'll need to wait a few days for that to happen.

        In the meantime you could try using the Moz Crawl tool to do a manual crawl. Depending on the size of your site this can take a few days so you might find it's just worth waiting for the weekly crawl. You can find the crawl tool here:

        https://moz.com/researchtools/crawl-test

        If you site isn't included in Google's index because it was inaccessible due to the robots,txt, then you'll want to go into Google Webmaster Tools and use the Crawl -> Fetch as Googlebot to kickstart Google crawling/indexing your site.

        • When connecting your Google Analytics account to your Moz account, Moz provides a drop-down of accounts & UA codes to select from. Where is Moz pulling those selection options from?
