      Hi,

      One of my sites has a 4xx error that has been picked up in the crawl diagnostics section.

      It is a broken link. Does anybody know if it is possible for me to find out which page the broken link was found on?

      I have checked all of the pages on the site that I thought were linking to the page that seems to have a problem but all of these links are fine / not broken.

      Any ideas?

      Thanks

          +1 for Xenu - run Xenu over your site, when it finds a broken link you can get a list of which pages it appears on

            • On our site by mistake some wrong links were entered and google crawled them. We have fixed those links. But they still show up in Not Found Errors. Should we just mark them as fixed? Or what is the best way to deal with them?
