Google plus and 404 error message

[carlosbernal10]

So this is strange - i created a bunch of pages on Google Plus - and now that I started to use MOZ I noticed that there were 95 404 errors - When I look at them I see the Google+ there ( see example)  Has any one experienced this issue?  If yes, anyway to fix these 404 errors? or what's the best way to address this issue?http://www.accu-time.com/solutions-2/google.com/+AccuTimeSystemsIncEllington

I'm afraid that I don't know of a way to change these other than finding them all and manually amending them. We do let you know the URLs of the referring pages so you know where to look - this is easier to see if you download the CSV file for these 404 errors from your crawl.

I think the Broken Link Checker Wordpress plugin can also offer you a list of these broken links that you can click through directly to amend them but I don't have any personal experience with this.

Sorry I can't be more help!

I understand and it makes complete sense. Thank you Lisa.  One more question - as I don't have someone here to do this for me I'll have to do this myself.  What's the best way to amend these links on the wordpress page?  Thanks again.

Hi there!

It looks like these 404 errors are coming from improperly formatted links in your html. I've attached an image of these in the example that you gave. As these links do not contain the http:// to tell the browser that they are external to the current site, the URLs are appended to the URL of the current page.

You'll want to find and amend these links as the 404 is also being seen by users if they try to follow them.
