    404 Error is when a page you are visiting doesn't exist anymore. Fix it with a 301 redirect

    The page which is not available on your website and user click on that link at that time which page is displayed is called 404 Error page. To fix the 404 Errors you should click to the refresh button and reload the page. Or simply remove the source of the page or by adding the link in the website.

    After you set up the 301 redirect, go into Google Webmaster Tools under the diagnostics section, and look at the crawler errors. If the page shows up as a 404 in GWT, then you will want to go to the crawler access in GWT and manually remove the URL from Google's index. You could also use the fetch as googlebot tool to index the change instantly as well.

    You have a broken link somewhere on your website. If you're using wordpress i remember there's a backlink checker you can use to find them. Then use a redirect plugin to correct it.

    404 not found, when someones try to follow a web page but Server unable to find that page. Simply by Refresh your page, Recheck your URL again there might be some spell mistake or simply remove the page from source.

    404 is a server response code which means the requested url is broken. You should check your site for broken links (in contents) and if found then remove them immediately. If they are already in Google's index then either 301 redirect (fast) them or just leave them for auto dilution (slow).

    404 is the worst error you can get in terms of SEO, thats bad in front of google´s eyes. However if the 404 error comer from outside(from another site) is not so bad as if the error happends inside of your web site

    404 can be due to MANY problems. I would advise to check your sites error logs in cpanel to see what kind of stuff is going on. Then, you can narrow it down to a plugin or other error. Could be host memory being exhausted. I've seen it all. The error log will be the best place to start your search. If you're on decent hosting that's "managed", ask tech support and they will usually be willing to help you out. Provide more details and we can help you out....

    The foliate which can be not available with your web page along with substance abuser click on of which website link then which often pageboy is actually available is termed 404 Fault webpage. To fix the actual 404 Problems you ought to pawl for the refresh push button and recharge your site. Or perhaps eliminate the method of obtaining the actual site or maybe with the addition of the url inside the site.
