404 error - but I can't find any broken links on the referrer pages

[Gyorgy]

The crawl runs once a week, so maybe the broken links have been corrected since the last report. Wait for the next report and check if they still appear.

Hi Katherine,

Try using Screaming Frog SEO software to crawl you site. That should pick up if you have a incorrect internal links.

For external links pointing to none existent pages, try Majestic SEO. It has the largest amount of link data (Sorry Open Site Explorer, but you know it's true).

Hope that helps

Thanks! Fingers crossed this is what caused it.

I wondered if it would help if I got more specific.

For example, this 404 error link

http://www.soccer2000.com/store/X10498!ADI/CONDIVO%2B12%2B3/4%2BPANT

Is supposedly found on this page:

http://www.soccer2000.com/store/cat/APP/APPAREL

But I can't find it anywhere - any ideas why?

Thanks again.

When was the CSV download of the crawl taken? Have any changes been made to that page since?

Did the same 404 show up when you used Screaming Frog?

Thanks

Hi Iain,

Thanks for your help. The site was recrawled on the weekend after attempted updates had been made and I downloaded a new CSV. The broken links are still showing and I still can't find where they are on the page?!

Screaming Frog has not shown up any errors however.

Not sure what else to do! Were you able to see any broken links in the example URLs I posted above?

Many thanks,

Katharine.

Hi Sarah,

I wasn't able to find errors on that page. Just to confirm the CSV of the crawl, is that coming from Google Webmasters?

Thanks! At least I know I am not going blind! No, the CSV came from SEO Moz's report.

Xenu looks good to me for that page as well. I'd do an-demand crawl for that page/site from http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/crawl-test and if it's still showing up, send an email to help@seomoz.org so we can look and see if there's an error in the crawl software.

Thanks!

[PooleyK]

Thank you. I will do.

Are you getting any crawl errors in Google Webmaster tools?
