Webmaster tools 404
-
Hey,
I'm getting a soft 404 error on a webpage that has content and is deferentially not a 404.
We've redirect a load of urls to the web page. The url has parameters which was used before the redirect but are no longer used on by the new url, these parameters have been carried over in the redirect.
Is this whats causing the soft 404 error or is there another problem that may need addressing?
Also a canonical has been set on the webpage.
Thanks, Luke.

Hi Luke,
I think I'm going to need a little more information to fully understand your question. Could you give us the URL in question?
Best,
Kristina

Google Webmaster Now Shows YourMost Recent Links
I just saw this story today about a new Google Webmaster feature which lets you download a file of the most recent links. http://searchengineland.com/google-now-shows-you-your-most-recent-links-127903 I downloaded the file today and I already discovered a major site issue. Our site blog was completely duplicated on a secondary domain we own and Google was showing that site as recent links. I already emailed the dev team to fix this pronto. Anybody else using this new feature and perhaps can share if it helps you in any way.
