404 Error - Please Help us
-
When we checked valuable Top pages, we noticed two types of 404 pages listed in our domain
Example 1 : www.test.com/www.test.com/ecommerce.html
Example 2 : www.test.com/test/ecommerce.html
But we do not see any such 404 page errors in the Google Webmaster tool. Moz Top Pages Section only shows these as errors
So please advise, if these are major errors or not?
If these are errors, please help us to fix this as we do not have such URLs in our domain
Awaiting your urgent help

You defintely want to reduce the number of "404 pages" on your website, as this can increase your companies, bounce rate.
we sell, bath garden rooms, some pages had a very high bounce rate- this could have been due to broken links causing 404 page errors.

Hi there!
Sorry for any confusion. If you're seeing odd URLs show up in your Top Pages report within Link Explorer or the Links section of your campaign, it is because we found a link out in the internet that leads to that page. It is entirely possible that whichever site it is coming from has an incorrect or inaccurate URL for your site. We could definitely help take a look at this if you email in the campaign details to help@moz.com! Thanks.

Unsolved Struggling to recouple backlinks that lead to 404 after a redesign launch
We had a site redesign launch a few months ago. Due to other priorities / a lot of things going on, there were a decent amount of URLs that 404ed. We implemented a drupal module search404 to redirect all of these to the homepage or a search results page that pulls search terms from the 404 page. Our goal is to recoup SEO value since we saw a notable dip in domain authority and amount of links after launch. We know a catch-all automated solution like this isn't ideal because it's better to 301 each page to its most relevant live page. For example, if CNN.com links to our Texas location, it's better to 301 to our new texas page than a homepage or search page. The problem is that since we implemented this catch all search404 module, it seems like tools like Moz Pro and Screaming Frog are not picking up the backlinks from external sites that 404 since they were "fixed" by the search404 module. Any ideas on solutions? We're trying to avoid tedious or risky solutions like undoing the module, which may bring back the 404s but cause some UX and SEO issues so we can run a SF crawl. Or going through every link in our link profile manually to check.

Can I use the keyword explorer to find negative keywords?We focus on a few things in our business that we focus on but the feedback that I get from the tool is not helpful
All in all,this business focuses in a very small area,and there are things that others in our business do that we do not.Yes,a guy that knows nothing about SEO... This is a junk removal business,and some of the competition do everything.This is a small outfit that only hauls junk.Much of the competition that we have sells junk bins,we do not.We just haul junk..we do not paint,or any of the things that they do. I just keep getting things sent to me me in my list here about bin sales etc,and it is making impossible to search for keywords without a way to manage what is coming in some way..Google let me do this,but I am just hoping to use this tool entirely if I am going to pay for it.Maybe I am lost being new,and confused. How can I use this tool? Are there any settings,or anything that you can teach a non SEO minded guy like me? Thanks

Dear All, May be this is a common question in forum, but wanted to ask specifically for 2015. Does automatic site generators will help in SEO. I added a new website and google started crawling it, without adding sitemap.xml, So does it really matter to have sitemap or updating the sitemap. Thanks, Om
