Hay,
I noticed in google webmaster tools also of 404 errors, i have tried resubmitting sitemap and clearing all the errors in google but again today the errors are back.
Im doing a slow import of all product again now, and i have upgraded my hosting to a high end VPS.
Any ideas what could be happening.
Hi,
Check out this comment from just the other day and consider making the changes described - it would seem that 404 is not the right thing to return for products that have been but are no longer in the database - and this could occur if Google does not fetch the sitemap as frequently as the feeds are being imported.
From your GWT you can click the Errors link and it shows the actual sitemap URL that is generating 404, so I would recommend double checking that they are indeed expired products rather than a transient issue perhaps - if you're not sure of course let me know...
Cheers,
David.
