Hey 1akal,
Looking at the structure of the url's there's not much that i can think of apart from 301 redirects. Have you ever considered using WordPress. We use Modern Tribe for our events.

Thanks Luke!
Website name is www.abrandtickets.com. It used ATBS CMS. As per my analysis the event/shows when published gets a url indexed by google. However the show time bound & expires accordingly. But when google recrawls the link, the link is not available and hence a 404 error occurs. This is ongoing & keeps adding up & has reached more than 1.8lac errors in web masters. Google webmaser sent a email here i am a pasing:

Hey 1akal,
Still can't tell you what to do with out the url. Also i wanted a web address to find out what type of server you are using because this error cause easily be prevent from escalating with some edits to the .htaccess file, but it may effect your SEO ranking for the events.
With out the full picture I'm not sure how we can help you.
Thanks, Luke.

Is a CMS being used, if so which one and what plugin. What is the urls causing these errors. Also a link to you website.

Number of goals larger than the events its bases on - WTF?
Hi all We configured a standard goal in Analytics that is triggered on an event. I have seen cases where the number of triggered events is larger than the goal completions due to limitations to how many times the same goal can be fulfilled within the same session, BUT in this case we got the opposite problem. We got more Goal Completions than we got events that is supposed to trigger the goal. Now also added a screenshot of how the goal is configured. As you can see its just configured to use the Category name of the event. Nothing fancy at all. How can that be possible? Again, more goal completions than events that is suppose to trigger it? Grateful for any help Fredrik AclZDUO

How is this site being tracked in GA?
Hi, Bit of an unusual one this, so please bear with me. This site http://www.hayesandhurst.com/ is being tracked in Google Analytics but we're unsure as to how. To the best of our knowledge we haven't inserted the tracking ID into the theme options or the tracking code into the source - and yet it appears to be tracking successfully! I did send some instructions to the client to set up the Analytics account in their name - I fear they have added the code somewhere to the site, but we cannot see where! Perhaps via Google tag Manager?? As I say, an odd one this, but if anyone can shed any light on this mystery i'd be hugely grateful. The tracking ID is UA-64505394-1 for the record. Regards,

Hi, So after reading a few posts here I have realised it a big deal to crawl the web and index all the links. For that I appreciate seomoz.org's efforts . I was wondering what kind of infrastructure they might need to get this done ? cheers, Vishal

Meta Robots Tag - What's it really mean?
I used on a handful of pages recently and noticed that they're still popping up in the Google search index. I'd like to keep these from appearing, so I figured I needed a directive statement with stronger semantic meaning. From what I understand, is what I'm looking for. Using this will keep Google from not only crawling the page, but indexing the page, as well. I decided to see what the official robotstxt.org website said about it, so I checked (link here): the NOFOLLOW directive only applies to links on this page. It's entirely likely that a robot might find the same links on some other page without a NOFOLLOW (perhaps on some other site), and so still arrives at your undesired page. So, is their explanation saying that the page itself will be indexed, but the content / links on it won't be followed / indexed? Let me hear your thoughts, mozzers.
