Google not found errors in webmaster tool help
-
Hi,
Google Webmaster tools sent me a few messages recently about the jump in the number of 'not found' errors.
From 0 to 290 errors, ouch.
I know what it's from but I think Google is seeing things. We developed another page/subdomain we're working on with links back to the root domain.
Basically a complete list of articles page that lists each article and links back to the root domain.
Not sure what Google is crawling but the links that would result in a 'not found' error aren't there.
Will these disappear over time?
Thanks for the help!

Hi,
Download not found URLs from Google webmaster tools. Then follow below steps:
1. Remove those urls from your sitemap
2. Remove any inter link that is pointing to those URLs
3. Do appropriate 301 redirect of each URLs
4. Submit URLs in "Remove URLs" in Google webmaster Tool
If you follow above points you will quickly able to remove URLs from Google index.
Hope this help....

Thanks, just curious where they would be on my sitemap if they aren't on the site itself?
The links that google is 'crawling' simply don't exist. So there's nothing to 301. That's what I'm confused about.
Thanks again.
