Random /feed 404 error from a wordpress site
-
My Moz Analytics report shows a 404 error on a page which I think should not exist at all. The URL is http://henryplumbingco.com/portfolio-item/butler-elementary/feed/. When I checked webmaster tools, it looks like there are a number of random /feed urls throwing 404 errors.
I am using WordPress and the Enfold theme.
Anyone know how to get rid of these errors?
Thanks,

Hello! Sorry, I have the same problem on my site (www.2become1.it). For example, in this page www.2become1.it/wedding-videographer-italy/engagement-chris-caterina/ i find this url: http://www.2become1.it/wedding-videographer-italy/engagement-chris-caterina/feed/ that doesn't exist.
I can't clean up head in SEO Yoast because the plugin's author disabled this option in the new version. Any suggest?
Thanks
Marco

Haha, no worries at all! Just double-checking.

Yes. Thanks Matt! I don't think I got an e-mail about his post (I'm sure that is my fault). So it took me a while go check back in.

Did Peter answer your question, Adam?

If you view source one of links:http://henryplumbingco.com/portfolio-item/butler-elementary/
you will find code as:And here is problem. Feed and comment feed works perfect. But post comment feed (last one) didn't work at all. If you want to clean up this you can use Yoast SEO -> Advanced -> Permalinks -> Cleanup Head -> Hide RSS link or you can use plugin for this. Like this one:

Blogger.com with an RSS Feed or on-site blog?
I have a client who uses blogger.com as their blogging platform, however this isn't helping to build the depth of their domain. They like to use this because it is easier for them than to create a blog post in their wordpress website. I am wondering if adding a feed to their site on a dedicated blog page would help SEO at all or would it be best to teach them how to use the wordpress CMS to blog? I was thinking that by adding the feed since it is their original content that it might have a similar effect. I know this is probably simple but I want to see what the moz community says. Thanks.

Writing Service/Product Descriptions
Hi, I work for a site that allows people to book a variety of different services in different locations (mainly hair and beauty related). The site is still in development so I can't link to it I'm afraid. My colleague is about to start writing these descriptions for each of the beauty salons we have signed up and I thought I'd take the opportunity to check what everyone else thought about these descriptions. As far as I'm concerned, a near perfect example can be found at http://www.toptable.co.uk/fishers-in-the-city We have about 100 words at the most, so I was thinking that as long as we get in the name of the salon, the location (being more descriptive than the general area our services search function allows for) and the USP of each salon - their specialty services. Is there anything else you'd include? Foremost, I want this to be as descriptive as possible to offer more detailed information about the salon. Thanks!

Wordpress when to use posts or pages
Hi Guys, I have a network of EMD sites that currently use a homepage and then we have a blog page which has 5-6 posts on. Is this the best way to do it with sites under 10-20 pages? Or should we create say 3-4 new pages/categories and drop the posts relevant to each page/category in there? Thank you Jon

Wordpress Pages vs. Posts
When building a blog to promote a particular affiliate offer, I usually like to use a static "page" homepage and then have my posts displayed on another part of my site. I've noticed that my wordpress pages almost always rank higher than wordpress posts and I can't explain it... Here are some possibilities I've thought of: XML Sitemap priority is set at 60% for pages and only 20% for posts My main navbar lists the pages which consequently means they get linked to on every page on my website. Some other phenomenon within the wordpress framework... If it helps, I use Thesis v1.8 on all my sites. I guess my ultimate question is: If pages do in fact rank higher than posts, is it worth it for me to go back and change the site structure on all my blogs which are using posts instead of pages. I know making major modifications like that can be disasterous but will it ultimately pay off? Thanks
