Does using Sucuri block Moz?
I use Sucuri cloud proxy and it has never affected my sites in any way. If you tell it to block the IP's or referral domain it will do so. If you do not it considers Moz/ Roger Bot & Dot Bot as white hat and does not block them unless you request that it does. their user agents are right here http://moz.com/community/q/what-is-the-full-user-agent-for-rogerbot you can request that Sucuri check and make sure you are not being blocked. With that said I just ran a test on the site above and the only bots that are being blocked bad bots. if you find this is not true for you simply tell Sucuri.net support inside the dashboard to Speak to support There phone number is 1–888–873–0817 they will tell security operations Center or( SOC) to white list anything you want white listed Could you possibly share a screenshot of the redirect your talking about? Tt sounds to me like you have a redirect issue on your server that could be blocking dotbot ( the bot for open site Explorer) To determine whether or not a robots.txt file or a no index page is doing this please use the tools below their free and will give us a lot of information quickly & make sure your robots.txt is not blocking it. http://tools.seochat.com/tools/robots-txt-validator/ To check regarding search engines or bots being redirected using this tool http://tools.seochat.com/tools/search-engine-friendly-redirect-checker/ to re-create a robots.txt file that works and will not block anything if that is the case use this tool. http://tools.seochat.com/tools/online-robots-txt-generator/ ( Site maps may not be official but do help if they're in the robots.txt file) ** last but not least run your site through this tool and make sure nothing is out of whack.** http://www.feedthebot.com/tools/ http://moz.com/tools/crawl-test ( do not be surprised if this does not work as may use the same bot being blocked by a number of different things) If you continue to have problems and Sucuri tell you that they are not blocking it. Look into using Deepcrawl.co.uk or screaming frog SEO spider I even run a free audit on deep crawl for you if everything above does not work. I hope this helps, Tom F5IU7Fs.png RznVSse.png
