      Hi,

      I have been having heaps (thousands) of SEOMoz crawl errors on urls that don't exist normally like: mydomain.com/RoomAvailability.aspx?DateFrom=2012-Oct-26&rcid=-1&Nights=2&Adults=1&Children=0&search=BestPrice

      These urls are missing siteids and other parameters and I can't see how they are gererated. Does anyone have any ideas on where MOZ is finding them ?

      Thanks Stephen

        Hi Stephen,

        Does your website has search functionality ? I think these URLs generated whenever someone search on your site. The common solution for this is to block  search directory. If you don't want to share URL, you can PM me so that I can suggest you exact solution.

        • I'm struggling to understand (and fix) why I'm getting a 404 error. The URL includes this "%5Bnull%20id=43484%5D" but I cannot find that anywhere in the referring URL. Does anyone know why please? Thanks
