Crawl Errors
-
Okay, I was just in my Google Webmaster Tools and was looking at some of the stats.
I have 1354 "not found" pages google says.
Many of these URL's are bizarre. I don't know what they are. Others I do know.
What should I do about this? Especially all the URL's I don't even know what they are?

Okay, and thanks Alan!!

These errors don't affect you negatively at all, it's more for you to find errors in your site. Follow Alan's advice by looking at the 'links' data and fix the one's that are caused by any coding problems in your site. You will always get a certain amount of bad links coming from external sources, you can either just leave them or if you are finding many links to the same 404 page you can actually recapture that link juice by 301 redirecting them to a relevant page on your site.

can you use those individually to get to a real page on the site? or even when you do them manually, do they lead to a 404 not found error? Links in Google's system come from somewhere - either within a site's architecture that site owners weren't aware of, or from 3rd party sources that got something wrong in how they found or scraped content. Many of the URLs Google reports show a "links" column off to the right you can click on to see where those URLs are located on the web either on your own site or another...

Is there a way to see Crawl Errors older than 90 days in Webmaster Tools?
I had some big errors show up in November, but I can't see them anymore as the history only goes back 90 days. Is there a way to change the dates in Webmaster Tools? If not, is there another place I'd be able to get this information? We migrated our hosting to a new company around this time and the agency that handled it for us never downloaded a copy of all the redirects that were set-up on the old site.

Can increase in crawl errors in GWT) be caused by input fields and jquery?
Dear Mozzerz We took over www.urgiganten.dk not long ago and last week we opened up for indexation, after having taken the old website down for a couple of months. One week after opening for indexation we saw a huge increase in crawl errors.Google is discovering some weird links to e.g http://www.urgiganten.dk/30-garmin-urremme/ which returns a 404. In GWT we are told that we are linking to this url from http://www.urgiganten.dk/garmin-urremme. But nowhere on http://www.urgiganten.dk/garmin-urremme will you find this link. However you will find the following script in the source code, which is the only code part that contains "/30-garmin-urremme/":Can it be true that google take the id and adds it to our tld to form a url? We have seen quite a lot of these errors not only on Urgiganten.dk but also some of our other websites!

Webmaster tools reporting spurious errors?
For the past 3 or so months Webmaster tools has been reporting 404 errors on my pages... The odd thing is that I can't figure out what they are seeing. Here is an example of a link they claim is a 404 antiquebanknotes/nationalcurrency/rare/1895-Ten-Dollar-Bill.aspx This is strange because it's a malformed URL. It says it's linked from this page: http://www.antiquebanknotes.com/antiquebanknotes/rare/1882-twenty-dollar-bill.aspx Which is a URL that doesn't exist. The bolded portion of this URRL shouldn't be there. Can anyone give me an idea what is happening here? Kind regards, Greg
