      I am recently seeing some URLs come up as 404s in GWMTs for a client.  They look like this:

      http://client-url/out/www.linkedin.com/company/client-linkedin-name

      /out/client-url/sub-directory/postname/

      We thought they might have something to do with the social plugins but they are all over the place and they are sometime for internal pages on the site. Anyone run into these and know why they are happening?

        Some CMS tools route clicks through a click tracking script, so they can count how many people click on each URL or widget.  It could be that you had a tool like this installed and that it was misconfigured - though I couldn't see anything from viewing the source on the pages you linked to.

        • Hey all -- ever seen a client with URLs that keep repeating the domain? Something like: client.com/client.com/client.com/subfolder-name. Any idea what glitch could cause that?

        • What is the best practice to seperate different locations and languages in an URL? At the moment the URL is www.abc.com/ch/de. Is there a better way to structure the URL from an SEO perspective?
