Remove more than 1000 crawl errors from GWT in one day?
-
In google webmasters tools you have the feature "Crawl Errors". This one displays the top 1000 crawl errors google have on your site.
I have around 16k crawl errors at the moment, which all are fixed. But i can only mark 1000 of them as fixed each day/each time google crawls the site. (This as it only displays top 1000 errors. When i have marked those as fixed it won't show other errors for a while.)
Does anyone know if it's possible to mark ALL errors as fixed in one operation?
-
Google indexed around 20k useless URL's due to mediawiki's insane amounts of URL's that is generated by not using "Short URL's".
It was resolved when we moved the wiki to another location, added the short URL's.
We have just redirected everything. (301).
-
So google indexed more than 16000 pages on your site and now you do what?
Did you just remove them (404) or redirect them (301)?
-
No problem at all, had a wiki up and running without the "short URL's". So Google had ~19k errors on this one because of too long/complicated URL's. Removed it, problem solved and all errors resolved.

Hi Host1
It is not possible! You can only mark 1000 errors as fixed a day.
May i ask you how you fixed 16.000 errors at once?

Should we remove category paths for better SEO?
We're looking to build some serious content and capitalise on long-tail keyword traffic for our sub-category pages, example for targeted keyword "designer dining tables". Example of current link: www.website.com/designer-furniture/designer-dining-tables.html Would removing the category paths help? Example result - www.website.com/designer-dining-tables More user friendly URLs and better for SEO would you suggest? The only problem is, if we removed the paths would this have a hit on our traffic? Any advice would be much appreciated. We are using Magento platform.

404s effecting crawl rate?
We made a change to our site where we all of a sudden we are creating a large number of 404 pages. Is this effecting the crawl/indexing rate? Currently we've submitted 3.4 million pages, have over 834K indexed but have over and 330K pages not found. Since the large increase in 404s we've noticed a decrease in pages crawled per day. I found this Q & A in Webmasters (http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2011/05/do-404s-hurt-my-site.html) but it seems like the 404s should not have an effect. Is this article out of date? What do you think fellow Moz-ers? Is this a problem?

Removing thousands of shady backlinks?
Hey guys, We've been hired to redesign a website that has thousands of backlinks created by a (possibly) shady offshore company, and I'm wondering if anyone out there has experience dealing with a deletion of this size and type. Is it as simple as just disavowing the whole lot? Thanks, Jason

Help with strange 404 Errors.
For the most part I have never had trouble tracking down 404's. Usually it's simply a broken link, but lately I have been getting these strange errors http://gridironexperts.com/http%3A/www.nfl.com/gamecenter?game_id=29528&season=2008&displayPage=tab_gamecenter/ What does; %C2%94 repersent? The error always points to NFL.com, but we don't link to them...like ever? Can I just 404: http://gridironexperts.com// to fix the problem, as all 404's start with this weird %C2%94 error. Is this error even on my site? Is in the backend...virus? thanks -Mike

Removing GWT Geo-Targeting
Hi, if I have a website in Google Webmaster Tools > Geographic Target set to United States, but I want to promote it in other specific countries, 1. Do I have to change the geo-targeting in GWT so it does not target a specific country? (discarding the option of adding sub-domain to GWT) 2. If I remove the GWT geo-targeting would it affect my rankings in the US? Thank you

Blocking Google from Crawling Parameters
Hi guys: What is the best way to keep Google from crawling certain urls with parameters? I used the setting in Webmaster Tools, but that doesn't seem to be helping at all. Can I use robots.txt or some other method? Thanks! Some examples are: <colgroup><col width="797"></colgroup> www.mayer-johnson.com/category/assistive-technology?manufacturer=179 www.mayer-johnson.com/category/assistive-technology?manufacturer=226 www.mayer-johnson.com/category/assistive-technology?manufacturer=227 <colgroup><col width="797"></colgroup> www.mayer-johnson.com/category/english-language-learners?condition=212 www.mayer-johnson.com/category/english-language-learners?condition=213 www.mayer-johnson.com/category/english-language-learners?condition=214 <colgroup><col width="797"></colgroup>
