heheh well I'd love that 47 not found could be "lots" by the way, where are thos links coming from? What you have to bear in mind is that it's not the same if the 404 is caused by internal or external linking.
If internal, then you have to see which page is creating the 404 and fix it
If external you have to ask the webmaster for fixing the link and meanwhile have the 301 in place so you can save the value of those links..

Hey guys...wonder if I could bother you again on this...in webmaster tools, I am getting lots of "URL Errors"
47 Not Found
8 Soft 404
Most are dated recently, within last month or so....what am I doing wrong?

I would not no index any pages, this sounds like a job for a canonical tag.
if you do decide to noindex pages, make sure you noindex,follow, you never want links pointing to no nofolow pages as they pour away link juice into the ether. if you make sure they are follow the link juice will pour back thought the out links on the pages.
I crawled your site and did not find any links pointing to those urls.
I did find a lot of other problems, the worse being 100 broken links, and 160 unnecessary redirects.

Hey, I can't find them on your site.
Is it possible that those pages are part of an older version of your site? I can only see /category/ folder but google definitely indexed 600 of your urls containing such tag.
As Patrick said I really recommend you to noindex all archive, category and tag pages as they are just thin pages useful for user navigation but not for google.
After you have added the noindex tag you may ask google to remove them from index and you'll ahve your issues solved

Hi there
With tag pages you should noindex these. They serve no purpose in the SERPs, you only want your quality pages to be indexed.
That being said, I would also check your sitemap to make sure that these tag URLs aren't listed and prioritized. Try that and see if this clears the issue up. Here's a resource.
Hope this helps - good luck!

Titling Category Pages Like You Would a Blog Page?
So, with our 600 or so category pages, I was curious... on each of these category pages we show the top 12 products for that category. In trying to increase click through rate, I wonder if it would be prudent to use some of the strategies I see used for Blog posts with thee category pages. i.e. Instead of Category Name - Website Name How about: Top 12 Kitty Litters We Carry - View the Best and the Rest! Or something like that. And then in the description, I could put, "Number 8 made my jaw drop!!!" (Ok, kidding about that one...) But serious about the initial question... Thanks! Craig

Hreflang tag implentation
Hi, We've had hreflang tags implemented on our site for a few weeks now, and while we are seeing some improvements for the regional subfolders I wanted to double check I had the tags implemented correctly (a couple of examples are below). However while the regional subfolder sites are now ranking instead of the US site for some keywords, some key search terms are still returning the US site. Could this be due to incorrect implementation for that specific page? Due to complications with using Magento we're implementing the tags in the site maps. Also magento appears to be inserting a rel canonical tag automatically for each page and self referencing e.g. On www.example.com/uk/security-cameras (one of the pages we're having issues with) the canonical tag is http://www.example.com/uk/security-cameras" />. Is this an issue? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. <url><loc>http://www.example.com/uk/dvrs-kits</loc>

Canonical Tag Pointing To The Same URL
Does it matter if a canonical tag points to the URL in which the tag is on? Example Page: http://www.domain.com Canonical tag: rel="canonical" href="http://www.domain.com" /> I only ask because a client of mine has a CMS that automatically does that to every page on the site and there's no way to remove it. Will this have a negative impact or does it not matter at all? Any insights would be great because I can't find a clear answer anywhere online. Thanks!
