          When ever I type in my website its tells me its not a valid URL . I have bought the URL www.buykickzonline.com. This was on my 90 day trial and it is not a good way to start my trial.

            I did send a message to [email protected].  Dont think its a server-level block of Rogerbot, because two other sites on the same server work just fine.  I'll post what I find later 🙂

              Can you send a note to [email protected]? We can look and see what's up. Sometimes, it's because there's a server-level block of Rogerbot.

                  Hi Teddy,

                  Does this seem to have been resolved, or are you still receiving the notice about an invalid URL?

                        Just curious - it wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that it is secure would it?  I have never used Moz tools on a secure website before... so this made me wonder.

                          I would start here my friend. Since this is a technical question, I would try contacting MOZ directly. From my experiences, they have very good service and response times.

                              Moz not able to crawl our site - any advice?

                              When I try and crawl our site through Moz it gives this message: Moz was unable to crawl your site on Aug 7, 2019. Our crawler was banned by a page on your site, either through your robots.txt, the X-Robots-Tag HTTP header, or the meta robots tag. Update these tags to allow your page and the rest of your site to be crawled. If this error is found on any page on your site, it prevents our crawler (and some search engines) from crawling the rest of your site. Typically errors like this should be investigated and fixed by the site webmaster. I have been through all the help and doesn't seem to be any issues. You can check the site and robots.txt here: https://myfamilyclub.co.uk/robots.txt. Anyone got any advice on where I could go to get this sorted?
