    Google webcrawl

    I've published my site map to google and it has been verified but when i look at the overview, it says that 292 pages are not found, (error 404).

    Can anyone advise me what to do about this problem and what might be the cause?

    I have checked all the links and they work fine, I just cant figure it out.


    www.citylifelive.co.uk

    example: this is one of the pages that cannot be found

      Pam: I think you are misunderstanding the question here.

      Matty: I see you have a visitor sitemap but have you created an SE sitemap?
      Don't aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally.

        Hi guys, thanks for responding.

        Yes, I have made a SE sitemap ( http://www.citylifelive.co.uk/sitemap.xml )
        and have submitted it to google.

        When i first made they SE sitemap I had to put most of the pages in manually because the bluevoda crawler could not find the pages either.

              Ramsey, that would not cause the 404 errors. And after looking at the site, the site map I see there is fantastic (see below).

              This sounds like you must have a bunch of links that aren't working - have you looked at your stats for where your 404 not founds are coming from? That's what you have to do and fix. Just clicking around, everything I did worked and I didn't have time to put the site into a checker - which is something you might need to do to find the 404 errors.

              And, I would NOT get rid of the site map you have - it's wonderful - and great for users! It's too bad more sites don't have such a great way for people to find everything.

                Hi Beth, long time no speak.. good to see you.
                Matty did show a page that the 404 was coming up for but the page exists, thats why i didnt think it was that. I also couldn't spot any bad links on his site, although a site of that size i obviously didn't scour it all so I guess it could be this ya.

                and no I wasn't suggesting getting rid of the visitor sitemap, I agree 100% it's a wonderful addition that not enough people do.

                I know that on sites where I have many hundreds of pages as Matty has that making the sitemap with sitemap .com was better than the building tool one (although this does work every other time)

                  No disagreement there - I think Google is finding all the pages - and also finding a bunch of bad pages - and at this time - it's important to find and get rid of the "bad guys" :)

                      You don't put it on BV. Open BV > Tools > FTP Manager

                      Left hand side is your PC files / Right hand side is your server

                      Find file on L/H side and drag to R/H side and that's how you put a a file on your server.

                      With regards to checking your links, do a search on Google for one, most are free.

                            My bad, I was replacing it with a copy of the original.
                            I will submit it to google and see how I get on.
                            again, Thanks for the help

                              You're Welcome, but you still need to do a link check as beth has a good point there about what could be happening.
