Creating and maintaining a website or an online store is a laborious process and has many nuances and pitfalls. One of the most common problems is the appearance of an error such as \u201cPage not found\u201d or 404. Users can simply be annoyed by this problem, especially if the site is popular. Because of this, the traffic is lost, but for the owners, this is not good. The problem lies in the presence of a large number of so-called “broken links” that spoil the statistics.<\/p>\n

Broken links can be found and fixed on your own using various methods manually, or using online services.<\/p>\n

What are “broken links”?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In simple terms, broken links are those addresses that lead to non-existent pages on the site. This issue indicates to the user that a site page has either been removed or the URL has been changed but does not fix the menu navigation for visitors.<\/p>\n

Broken links are divided into external and internal. Internal links are links that take the user to a page within the original site. While external, they redirect users to third-party web resources. As a result, a disappointing 404 server response code appears.<\/p>\n

The 404 code is a typical service response to a user request with a non-existent page. Before opening the page, the browser makes a request to the server. It, in turn, checks the original document for functionality and opens a header containing the necessary information. During normal operation of the site, the code 200 OK is displayed. Its difference is that it is invisible to users, and the 404 error code is visible and leads some to a stupor.<\/p>\n

Ideally, the site should have almost no broken links. Only then will traffic and visitors grow steadily, as will the reputation of the resource itself.<\/p>\n

How do broken links appear on the site?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

To better understand the specifics of the 404 page, you should study the main reasons for their occurrence.<\/p>\n

These include:<\/p>\n
