This is for dcz and the rest of the experts here, I have a big problem that i suspect getting me down in ranking big time I have installed the mixed mod (migrating from able2know) and also GYM Sitemaps 1.2 successfully... the problem is that when i go to the "webmaster tools" area in google were we submit the sitemaps, i see a lot of errors! I am getting 882 errors that say: "404 (Not found)" when looking at the paths i see a double slush after the forum path, it look like this: http://www.forhair.com/hairtransplant//post2600.html I have included a screen print photo of the errors: I have to fix this is it seems to make my site go down on the Google results Thanks you Back to top dcz Administrateur - Site Admin Joined: 28 Apr 2006 Posts: 14814 Posted: Mon Apr 09, 2007 10:48 am    Post subject: Re: Double slash Google errors...help! GYM sitemaps never outputted post urls. These reports concern all your web site, not only the url listed in sitemaps. So I guess this comes from something else, related to the mod rewrite you're using, but I could not find any url with double slashes in your forum's links. So it's hard to tell where these came from. Anyway, replacing : Code: # POST RewriteRule ^hairtransplant/post([0-9]+)\.html$ /hairtransplant/viewtopic.php?p=$1 [QSA,L] with : Code: # POST RewriteRule ^hairtransplant//?post([0-9]+)\.html$ /hairtransplant/viewtopic.php?p=$1 [QSA,L] in your .htaccess should be enough to have these, together with the correct ones, work and be redirected by the zero duplicate. ++ _________________ Useful links : SEO Forum || SEO Directory || SEO phpBB || SEO phpBB3 || Search ____________________ Liens Utiles : Forum référencement || Annuaire référencement || Référencement phpBB || Référencement phpBB3 || Recherche Back to top ronyeli Joined: 27 Feb 2007 Posts: 18 Posted: Mon Apr 09, 2007 6:59 pm    Post subject: Re: Double slash Google errors...help!

Well again, these do not come form the gym sitemap module, and I can't even find where they came from on your site, all links are correct, redirections included. Anyway, the fix to redirect these wherever they came from is the same as per the double slashed post links, find : Code: # PAGINATED TOPIC RewriteRule ^hairtransplant/topic([0-9]+)-([0-9]+)\.html$ /hairtransplant/viewtopic.php?t=$1&start=$2 [QSA,L] # TOPIC RewriteRule ^hairtransplant/topic([0-9]+)\.html$ /hairtransplant/viewtopic.php?t=$1 [QSA,L] Replace with : Code: # PAGINATED TOPIC RewriteRule ^hairtransplant//?topic([0-9]+)-([0-9]+)\.html$ /hairtransplant/viewtopic.php?t=$1&start=$2 [QSA,L] # TOPIC RewriteRule ^hairtransplant//?topic([0-9]+)\.html$ /hairtransplant/viewtopic.php?t=$1 [QSA,L] In your .htaccess, the zero duplicate will do the rest It would be better though to still find where theses came from and fix them. ++ _________________ Useful links : SEO Forum || SEO Directory || SEO phpBB || SEO phpBB3 || Search ____________________ Liens Utiles : Forum référencement || Annuaire référencement || Référencement phpBB || Référencement phpBB3 || Recherche Back to top ronyeli Joined: 27 Feb 2007 Posts: 18 Posted: Wed Apr 18, 2007 8:37 pm    Post subject: Re: Double slash Google errors...help! where should i look? i don't know where to even start...do i need to look in the phpbb forum pages?

Pretty much everywhere on your site where link are posted to the forum. But as said, I could not find any, so I guess they only showed up for some time when you where installing the mod rewrite or something. By the way, I just noticed http://www.forhair.com/hairtransplant//topic527.html is redirected to index.php for now, I thin it would be better to redirect it to the topic url directly. Just get rid of (or comment) this in your .htaccess : Code: # FORUM PROTECTION RULE RewriteRule ^hairtransplant/.*/([^/]+\.html)$ /hairtransplant/index.php [R=301,L] To let the other rules do their job. ++ _________________ Useful links : SEO Forum || SEO Directory || SEO phpBB || SEO phpBB3 || Search ____________________ Liens Utiles : Forum référencement || Annuaire référencement || Référencement phpBB || Référencement phpBB3 || Recherche Back to top ronyeli Joined: 27 Feb 2007 Posts: 18 Posted: Wed Apr 18, 2007 8:56 pm    Post subject: Re: Double slash Google errors...help!

Have you implemented the suggested code change from this post above ? Because -http://www.forhair.com/hairtransplant//topic527.html is 404 now, if the above suggested fix does not work, put back : Code: # FORUM PROTECTION RULE RewriteRule ^hairtransplant/.*/([^/]+\.html)$ /hairtransplant/index.php [R=301,L] An HTTP 301 is better than a 404 on these if they are not this many listed by Google, fewer than a hundred. _________________ phpBB SEO || SEO Forum || Forum Référencement GYM Sitemap & RSS for phpBB3 has been released ! || GYM Sitemap & RSS for phpBB3 est disponible !

When I say : dcz wrote: Pretty much everywhere on your site where link are posted to the forum. But as said, I could not find any, so I guess they only showed up for some time when you where installing the mod rewrite or something. I really mean I couldn't not find any double-slashed link on your site. I cannot say there is none, as there at least must have been somewhere at some point, what is for sure is they do not come from GYM sitemaps or the phpBB SEO mod rewrites, at least as the web site is set now. Our only issue here is to take car about these few links, wherever they came from. So, I think we just need here to take care about the few double-slashed links Google knows about. So it seems you implemented the last code change suggested, -http://www.forhair.com/hairtransplant//topic527.html is not a 404 anymore but isn't redirected. So I think the final solution is to play with the forum protection rule, just put back the single slashed rewriterules for topics, and add this : Code: [code]# FORUM PROTECTION RULE RewriteRule ^hairtransplant/.*/([^/]+\.html)$ /hairtransplant/$1 [R=301,L][/code] Where you previously add : Code: # FORUM PROTECTION RULE RewriteRule ^hairtransplant/.*/([^/]+\.html)$ /hairtransplant/index.php [R=301,L] Will do it : //topicxx.html => http 301 => /topicxx.html ++ _________________ Useful links : SEO Forum || SEO Directory || SEO phpBB || SEO phpBB3 || Search ____________________ Liens Utiles : Forum référencement || Annuaire référencement || Référencement phpBB || Référencement phpBB3 || Recherche Back to top Display posts from previous: All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First         phpBB SEO » SEO Forum  » phpBB SEO TooLKit  » GYM Sitemaps Page 1 of 1 Navigation Similar Topics Jump to: Select a forum phpBB SEO Portal----------------The phpBB SEO Website-- TestsphpBB SEO DirectoryTranslationsGeneral Discussions Search Engine Otpimisations----------------SEO PrinciplesSEO TechniquesGoogle Forums-- Google SEO-- Google AdSense-- Google ServicesMSN Search Forums-- MSN SEOYahoo!
