404 error Not found = Bad Link from the Web Site

Restricted by robots.txt = Joomla! server root directory / folder where Joomla! is installed has a file called "robots.txt" which tells search engines what and what not to index. Apparently, the robots.txt is telling either all search engines, or only G00gle, not to index the directory / folders shown upon the server.

500 Error could be server directory / folder file permissions.

All of which may be set using the web hosting service "cpanel", "File Manager" to include editing of the file "robots.txt"

Hope this helps!

Here is my robot.txt:
# If the Joomla site is installed within a folder such as at
# e.g. http://www.example.com/joomla/ the robots.txt file MUST be
# moved to the site root at e.g. http://www.example.com/robots.txt
# AND the joomla folder name MUST be prefixed to the disallowed
# path, e.g. the Disallow rule for the /administrator/ folder
# MUST be changed to read Disallow: /joomla/administrator/
#
# For more information about the robots.txt standard, see:
# http://www.robotstxt.org/orig.html
#
# For syntax checking, see:
# http://www.sxw.org.uk/computing/robots/check.html

User-agent: *
Disallow: /administrator/
Disallow: /cache/
Disallow: /cli/
Disallow: /components/
Disallow: /images/
Disallow: /includes/
Disallow: /installation/
Disallow: /language/
Disallow: /libraries/
Disallow: /logs/
Disallow: /media/
Disallow: /modules/
Disallow: /plugins/
Disallow: /templates/
Disallow: /tmp/

Is this enough? Can you tell me total webmaster guide for joomla?

This is basic web site setup that technically has nothing to do with Joomla!

The following should allow a better understanding of web site administration tools:

Below is a single explanation for each of the above categories to the original question:




Perhaps do a search for each of these errors to better understand each one in detail as this is not a Joomla! specific problem affecting functionality, it is a web masters choice of tools to maintain a web site.

Hope this helps!

I am going through learning SEO myself and would not be of much help. However, I do have some beginner suggestions:

Use words within the URL web site address in title, headings (for large article or content), content and any sidebar modules.

Keep all contents of pages relative to the specific words within the URL.

Ensure the web page reflects an author, description, title and content to search engines.

Check all spelling and grammar (to include meta descriptions and keywords.)

Match meta descriptions to each linked word, phrase or image name.

Stick with either php code or .htaccess hard 301 redirects.

Use robots.txt to keep spiders and SERP's from indexing unnecessary pages to index or follow
(e.g., in my humble opinion such pages may be the registration form page, contact page, etc.)

Not wise to duplicate anyone else’s content even with permission (original images are the exception.)
This includes the same content that is displayed on more than one web site owned by the same person.

Do not spam forums for backlinks, its tacky, undesired and bothersome. Beside, anyone can set all backlines
to no follow which would defeat the initial spamming purpose. Though not proven, SERP’s may use this as an excuse
to ban a domain or set of domains in the future under the digital copyright laws.

FYI:
In the United States the Library of Congress is beginning to archive all Twitter posts up to 140 characters as of March 2006:

Hope this helps!

Post URL to live site please and explain the "3000-4000" error's as Joomla! "out-of-the-box" is generally error free? Perhaps it is the content or the way in which it was imported into the database and utilized with Joomla! that is the problem?

Hope this helps!

which redirection plugin is nice to solve 404error?

and can i upload all 404error in database? and how to solve next?

For the 404 error, we will use a URL that was given above and assume that the URL is this vary same web site:

http://www@e-opensources.com/Pharmacy/h ... rol-weight

The above link results in the following text actually shown in a web browser URL address bar:

http://www@e-opensources.com/Pharmacy/h ... weight.php

Then add various suffixes to the end of the URL (e.g., htm, php, etc) to see if the Joomla! “SEO Settings,” “Add suffix to URLs” has a problem with interpretation.

Now the URL address http://www@e-opensources.com/Pharmacy/h ... rol-weight may be shortened to the “Category” of “Pharmacy.”

http://www.e-opensources.com/Pharmacy/ (which also gives a 404 error.)

Since, the “Category” of “/Pharmacy/” from the URL does not exist, the “/helps-control-weight/” article title may exist, but the assigned category within the Joomla! “Article Manager” does not select “Pharmacy,” or the category of “Pharmacy” as this was deleted after the above given link was created.

The entire web site may have this problem and if the URL’s were created and then an administrator deleted all the “Sections” or “Categories” then the web site will have many 404 error’s.

It is certain that one of the URL’s provided has been deleted as shown by the 404 error not found.

Hope this helps!

http://e-opensources.com/education/phar ... rol-weight
this is now exist. yah i was edit category. now it is sub category of "eduction". Have you any redirection extension which auto redirect to modified link like wordpress "Redirection" plugin which Manage all your 301 redirects and monitor 404 errors. i use in my wordpress site (http://www.ebanglanewspaper.com) and its well control my 404 error.

Or do u have any extension which omit category just show main url like e-opensources.com/helps-control-weight.php or e-opensources.com/helps-control-weight.html

If this is about a specific Joomla! extension from the JED here at this domain, then perhaps make a new post
within that extensions place within the Joomla! forum for help.

Place in the Joomla! forum for "Extensions for Joomla! 2.5 / Joomla! 1.7":

viewforum.php?f=620

Place in the Joomla! forum for "Extensions for Joomla! 1.5":

viewforum.php?f=470

Place in the Joomla! forum for extensions pertaining to "Joomla! 1.0":

viewforum.php?f=505

or

Place in the Joomla! forum for "Extensions.Joomla.org - Feedback/Information":

viewforum.php?f=262

or

Make a new post at the author’s web site for the Joomla! third party extension by either reading the documentation
that came with the extension files, or by searching through the Joomla! Extensions Directory (JED):

http://extensions.joomla.org/


Since this is specific to G00gle Webmaster Tools the perhaps register at that web site domain and ask that question
in the forum for further assistance.

Here is the link to the G00gle Webmaster Group Forum page to allow web masters to ask specific questions about G00gle indexing services:

http://groups.google.com/a/googleproduc ... webmasters

Here is a good starting place for G00gle questions about "FAQ: Crawling, indexing & ranking":

http://sites.google.com/site/webmasterh ... ---ranking

Lastly, please review the forum “Rules” page as it is consistent with many other web sites when posting for assistance: viewtopic.php?f=8&t=65 .)

Good luck!
