          Hi!

          In Google Webmaster Tools I find *.../feed/ as a 404 page in crawl errors. The problem is that none of these pages exist and they have no inbound links (except the start page).

          FYI, it´s a wordpress site.

          Example:

          • www.mysite.com/subpage1/feed/
          • www.mysite.com/subpage2/feed/
          • www.mysite.com/subpage3/feed/
          • etc

          Does Google search for /feed/ by default or why do I keep getting these 404´s every day?

            Hi Tommy

            You can do as Aran suggests - a redirect would be fine for feeds you don't want being crawled.

            But more importantly, you may want to consider not indexing subpages (like this one: http://www.mediaanalys.se/blogg/page/2/) - you can make this setting in Yoast.

            Let us know!

            -Dan

                  I´ve checked the sitemap, you find it at ....se/sitemap_index.xml

                  It´s Yoast plugin BTW.

                    I see your point... cant find reference to /feed/ however i also cannot find your sitemap.xml to confirm their are no references in there are their an external links pointing to kontakt/feed?

                    I'd consider adding a 301 rule into the htaccess to redirect traffic from the offending 404 pages, just in case.

                      Sure, notice that it´s in swedish 😃

                      Example of one page that Google report 404 on is our contact page with /feed/ at the end,

                      http://www.mediaanalys.se/kontakt/   +   feed/

                          Hi Aran, thanks for your time!

                          Meta and sitemaps are clear. I also checked the source code for the specific pages that Google have in their reports, but no link.

                          I´ve also googled about the automatic feed functions in WP but no problem there either.

                            By default I think most wordpress blogs have a feed accessible via the urls you describe (http://en.support.wordpress.com/feeds/)

                            I'm pretty sure there specified somewhere link in sitemaps or even in meta.

                            Have you disabled your feeds?

                            Seeing your URL would help.

                              Removing a site from Google index with no index met tags

                              Hi there! I wanted to remove a duplicated site from the google index. I've read that you can do this by removing the URL from Google Search console and, although I can't find it in Google Search console, Google keeps on showing the site on SERPs. So I wanted to add a "no index" meta tag to the code of the site however I've only found out how to do this for individual pages, can you do the same for a entire site? How can I do it? Thank you for your help in advance! L

                              Blog Page Titles - Page 1, Page 2 etc.

                              Hi All, I have a couple of crawl errors coming up in MOZ that I am trying to fix. They are duplicate page title issues with my blog area. For example we have a URL of www.ourwebsite.com/blog/page/1 and as we have quite a few blog posts they get put onto another page, example www.ourwebsite.com/blog/page/2 both of these urls have the same heading, title, meta description etc. I was just wondering if this was an actual SEO problem or not and if there is a way to fix it. I am using Wordpress for reference but I can't see anywhere to access the settings of these pages. Thanks

                              Google stopped crawling my site. Everybody is stumped.

                              This has stumped the Wordpress staff and people in the Google Webmasters forum. We are in Google News (have been for years), and so new posts are crawled immediately. On Feb 17-18 Crawl Stats dropped 85%, and new posts were no longer indexed (not appearing on News or search). Data highlighter attempts return "This URL could not be found in Google's index." No manual actions by Google. No changes to the website; no custom CSS. No Site Errors or new URL errors. No sitemap problems (resubmitting didn't help). We're on wordpress.com, so no odd code. We can see the robot.txt file. Other search engines can see us, as can social media websites. Older posts still index, but loss of News is a big hit. Also, I think overall Google referrals are dropping. We can Fetch the URL for a new post, and many hours later it appears on Google and News, and we can then use Data Highlighter. It's now 6 days and no recovery. Everybody is stumped. Any ideas? I just joined, so this might be the wrong venue. If so, apologies.

                              Do I use /es/, /mx/ or /es-mx/ for my Spanish site for Mexico only

                              I currently have the Spanish version of my site under myurl.com/es/ When I was at Pubcon in Vegas last year a panel reviewed my site and said the Spanish version should be in /mx/ rather than /es/ since es is for Spain only and my site is for Mexico only. Today while trying to find information on the web I found /es-mx/ as a possibility. I am changing my site and was planning to change to /mx/ but want confirmation on the correct way to do this. Does anyone have a link to Google documentation that will tell me for sure what to use here? The documentation I read led me to the /es/ but I cannot find that now.

                              Staging site and "live" site have both been indexed by Google

                              While creating a site we forgot to password protect the staging site while it was being built.  Now that the site has been moved to the new domain, it has come to my attention that both the staging site (site.staging.com) and the "live" site (site.com) are both being indexed.  What is the best way to solve this problem?  I was thinking about adding a 301 redirect from the staging site to the live site via HTACCESS. Any recommendations?

                              Hi everyone, I've been working on SEO for this site for about 2 years and for some reason the site has just tanked in google. However it shows up #1 in yahoo and bing for the same search. http://www.nfsmn.com Phrase: "commercial foundation repair mn" If anyone can shed some light on the issue I would really appreciate it. They do have a sister-site: american-waterworks.com that may be causing issues as they link a lot of content to amww but not the other way around. Thanks Eric

                              Why is my site jumping around in google search ?

                              Hi I've been trying to get my page up in google results and I was wondering why the constant fluctuation. For example, on one day the pages is nr. 26, the next day it's nr. 65 then jumps back on say 30 and then in a few more days it's going back to 50. What's the logic behind that ? Thanks Cezar
