          In my google webmasters I just started getting 404 errors that I'm not sure how to redirect.

          I'm getting quite a few that are ending in /feed/ for instance

          /nyc-accident-injury/feed/
          contact-us-thank-you/feed/

          and then also a problem with my sitemap I guess? With

          /site-map/?postsort=tags

          The domain is pulversthompson.com

            Hey Jeffrey,

            So in general I wouldn't lose too much sleep over GWT 404 errors.  No matter how many I've fixed, a few pop up that I have no idea how Google landed on them.  The ones I'd worry about most are the ones that have links pointing to them, internal or external.  GWT should give you the referring page so check those out and fix them.

            If there are a few that keep cropping up just 301 redirect them to another page.

            You should take a look at the sitemap and if there are /feed/ URLs in there, remove them and resubmit.

            Hope that helps,

            Jacob

              Hi Jeffrey.

              I assume you have your sitemaps uploaded and indexed in Google Webmaster Tools.

              You should go to your Sitemap panel and look for the warning on the specific sitemaps (image).

              When you click on the warning you can see the 404 error codes (I don't have any images to show for this, since I don't have any sites with that specific error).

              And if I remember correctly you will be able to click on the specific links, that are redirecting to a 404-page, and thus be able to either setup a 301 redirect, or fix the 404.

              Since most of your errors are regarding a /feed/ it's likely that there's links on other pages linking to them.

              --

              I hope I've helped you a bit further, if not, please elaborate your question.

                404 Errors flaring on nonexistent or unpublished pages – should we be concerned for SEO?

                Hello! We keep getting "critical crawler" notifications on Moz because of firing 404 codes. We've checked each page and know that we are not linking to them anywhere on our site, they are not published and they are not indexed on Google. It's only happened since we migrated our blog to Hubspot so we think it has something to do with the test pages their developers had set up and that they are just lingering in our code somewhere. However, we are still concerned having these codes fire implies negative consequences for our SEO. Is this the case? Should we be concerned about these 404 codes despite the pages from those URLs not actually existing? Thank you!

                Ogranization Schema/Microformat for a content/brand website | Travel

                Hi, One of our clients have a website specific to a place, for eg. California Tourism in which they publish local information related to tourism, blogs & other useful content. I want to understand how useful is to publish Organization Schema on such website mentioning the actual Organization, which in this case is a Travel Agency? Or any other schema would fit in for such websites?

                Question about Indexing of /?limit=all

                Hi, i've got your SEO Suite Ultimate installed on my site (www.customlogocases.com). I've got a relatively new magento site (around 1 year). We have recently been doing some pr/seo for the category pages, for example /custom-ipad-cases/ But when I search on google, it seems that google has indexed the /custom-ipad-cases/?limit=all This /?limit=all page is one without any links, and only has a PA of 1. Whereas the standard /custom-ipad-cases/ without the /? query has a much higher pa of 20, and a couple of links pointing towards it. So therefore I would want this particular page to be the one that google indexes. And along the same logic, this page really should be able to achieve higher rankings than the /?limit=all page. Is my thinking here correct? Should I disallow all the /? now, even though these are the ones that are indexed, and the others currently are not. I'd be happy to take the hit while it figures it out, because the higher PA pages are what I ultimately am getting links to... Thoughts?

                Should I Keep adding 301s or use a noindex,follow/canonical or a 404 in this situation?

                Hi Mozzers, I feel I am facing a double edge sword situation. I am in the process of migrating 4 domains into one. I am in the process of creating URL redirect mapping The pages I am having the most issues are the event pages that are past due but carry some value as they generally have one external followed link. www.example.com/event-2008 301 redirect to www.newdomain.com/event-2016 www.example.com/event-2007 301 redirect to www.newdomain.com/event-2016 www.example.com/event-2006 301 redirect to www.newdomain.com/event-2016 Again these old events aren't necessarily important in terms of link equity but do carry some and at the same time keep adding multiple 301s  pointing to the same page may not be a good ideas as it will increase the page speed load time which will affect the new site's performance. If i add a 404 I will lose the bit of equity in those. No index,follow may work since it won't index the old domain nor the page itself but still not 100% sure about it. I am not sure how a canonical would work since it would keep the old domain live. At this point I am not sure which direction I should follow? Thanks for your answers!

                <loc>tag empty in sitemap, is this ok?</loc>

                Hi - our website's sitemap is pretty huge, and I'm trying to generate it with the hreflang= information in it, because we have 11 different language sites all under the .com. I used the Media Flow generator for this purpose, but it returned a lot of entries with a blank tag. Our U.S. website by far has the most pages, so an example of what I'm getting is: Does this look correct???? Doesn't to me but I'm unsure.

                Any SEO Penalties from Removing RSS Feed?

                Hi, I have a site that has a Feedburner feed that has been in place for 5+ years.  I am considering getting rid of the feed or starting a new one to combat content scraping.  Google continues to rank thieves' sites ahead of mine.  Google and Bing have no issue and always get it right.   I use Wordpress and have the plugin PubSubHubb, but that is no guarantee.  Nonetheless, there is no monetary value of my subscribers whereas the content not being accredited to me takes money out of my pocket as my model is advertising. Is there any SEO issue if I do any of the following: Delete the feed and not have one? Change the feed address and drop all subscribers? Attachments: DMCA Dashboard; example of being outranked by scrapers. My site: www.furniturefashion.com Thanks for your time and hopefully I did not vent too much. OWmou6k f6W3xkq.png
