          Hello

          I am getting loads of 404 reported in my Crawl report, all appended with void(0) at the end.  For example:

          http://lfs.org.uk/films-and-filmmakers/watch-our-films/1289/void(0)
          The site is running on Drupal 7,

          Has anyone come across this before?

          Kind Regards

          Moshe

            I think void(0) problem from WordPress theme if you use WordPress. Or, You can't setup perfectly javascript void(0) code on your template file.

            See the perfect javascript void(0) link examples on this page of wikihat => Kickass Torrents

            See the "click to open" button there.

                Hi Kane

                Many thanks for the links.  The Google forum link seems like to be the direction.  I am not the developer of the site, but will forward the link to them hoping they will help.  (been 3 years since site went live).

                Many thanks

                  Hi Dimitri

                  I am pretty sure that it is only the fact that something is producing links with void(0) at the end.  The link I used in my original post should actually be:

                  http://lfs.org.uk/films-and-filmmakers/watch-our-films/1289/tongues

                  The MOZ crawl report is saying that the above page is the Referrer to the

                  http://lfs.org.uk/films-and-filmmakers/watch-our-films/1289/void(0)

                  This repeats itself in many pages on the site.

                  Many thanks
                  Moshe

                    Hi Moshen,

                    My guess is that somewhere on the site, someone created a pop up window or another load effect and they used void(0) to create a link. The better practice is to create a normal link and control what happens when it's clicked by using Javascript. You could also add rel="nofollow" to those links, but it's less ideal than the first option.

                    These explain the issue as well for additional reference:

                    https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/webmasters/3ShUdX7_GqQ

                      Hi there.

                      It seems to be that there is something wrong with javascript. Because it seems like piece of JS code. However, even if i remove void part, the page still doesn't exist. You sure it's just "void(0)" problem?

                        Moz-Specific 404 Errors Jumped with URLs that don't exist

                        Hello, I'm going to try and be as specific as possible concerning this weird issue, but I'd rather not say specific info about the site unless you think it's pertinent. So to summarize, we have a website that's owned by a company that is a division of another company. For reference, we'll say that: OURSITE.com is owned by COMPANY1 which is owned by AGENCY1 This morning, we got about 7,000 new errors in MOZ only (these errors are not in Search Console) for URLs with the company name or the agency name at the end of the url. So, let's say one post is: OURSITE.com/the-article/ This morning we have an error in MOZ for URLs OURSITE.com/the-article/COMPANY1 OURSITE.com/the-article/AGENCY1 x 7000+ articles we have created. Every single post ever created is now an error in MOZ because of these two URL additions that seem to come out of nowhere. These URLs are not in our Sitemaps, they are not in Google... They simply don't exist and yet MOZ created an an error with them. Unless they exist and I don't see them. Obviously there's a link to each company and agency site on the site in the about us section, but that's it.

                        WEbsite cannot be crawled

                        I have received the following message from MOZ on a few of our websites now Our crawler was not able to access the robots.txt file on your site. This often occurs because of a server error from the robots.txt. Although this may have been caused by a temporary outage, we recommend making sure your robots.txt file is accessible and that your network and server are working correctly. Typically errors like this should be investigated and fixed by the site webmaster. I have spoken with our webmaster and they have advised the below: The Robots.txt file is definitely there on all pages and Google is able to crawl for these files. Moz however is having some difficulty with finding the files when there is a particular redirect in place. For example, the page currently redirects from threecounties.co.uk/ to https://www.threecounties.co.uk/ and when this happens, the Moz crawler cannot find the robots.txt on the first URL and this generates the reports you have been receiving. From what I understand, this is a flaw with the Moz software and not something that we could fix form our end. _Going forward, something we could do is remove these rewrite rules to www., but these are useful redirects and removing them would likely have SEO implications. _ Has anyone else had this issue and is there anything we can do to rectify, or should we leave as is?

                        URL Length Issue

                        MOZ is telling me the URLs are too long. I did a little research and I found out that the length of the URLs is not really a serious problem. In fact, others recommend ignoring the situation. Even on their blog I found this explanation: "Shorter URLs are generally preferable. You do not need to take this to the extreme, and if your URL is already less than 50-60 characters, do not worry about it at all. But if you have URLs pushing 100+ characters, there's probably an opportunity to rewrite them and gain value. This is not a direct problem with Google or Bing - the search engines can process long URLs without much trouble. The issue, instead, lies with usability and user experience. Shorter URLs are easier to parse, copy and paste, share on social media, and embed, and while these may all add up to a fractional improvement in sharing or amplification, every tweet, like, share, pin, email, and link matters (either directly or, often, indirectly)." And yet, I have these questions: In this case, why do I get this error telling me that the urls are too long, and what are the best practices to get this out? Thank You

                        Crawlers crawl weird long urls

                        I did a crawl start for the first time and i get many errors, but the weird fact is that the crawler tracks duplicate long, not existing urls. For example (to be clear): there is a page: www.website.com/dogs/dog.html but then it is continuing crawling:
                        www.website.com/dogs/dog.html
                        www.website.com/dogs/dogs/dog.html
                        www.website.com/dogs/dogs/dogs/dog.html
                        www.website.com/dogs/dogs/dogs/dogs/dog.html
                        www.website.com/dogs/dogs/dogs/dogs/dogs/dog.html what can I do about this? Screaming Frog gave me the same issue, so I know it's something with my website

                        Is there a tool to upload multiple URLs and gather statistics and page rank?

                        I was wondering if there is a tool out there where you can compile a list of URL resources, upload them in a CSV and run a report to gather and index each individual page. Does anyone know of a tool that can do this or do we need to create one?
