any help

my urls like this
in Google Sitemaps Page
http://www.qatarspeed.com/forum//login.php?do=lostpw

with //

errors are common to happen and show in webmasters portal.

Code:

Errors for URLs in Sitemaps 12
 HTTP errors 0
Not found 954
URLs not followed  0
URLs restricted by robots.txt 85
URLs timed out 2
Unreachable URLs 26
 
Total: 1079

That's my current live info.


Deleted threads/posts and so on all contribute to it. Google takes a while to sort everything out, and eventually will remove or re-index the proper page of those not found or unreachable URL's.


If these numbers represent more than 1-2% of your forum URL's, i would be a little nervous. but in general, if you have 500k posts, 1500 isn't much to be worried about IMO.

as for this, its possible someone linked that URL somewhere else, and google followed it, thus trying to find it.


I'd suggest setting up a custom 404 page to try to retain some members from bad links. The process is outlined here:

Create a Custom vBulletin "404 Page Not Found" Page, and direct vBSEO to use it.
