I have about 150 crawl errors in Google Webmaster. There are all not found (404).

I'm not sure why there are so many problems. It seems like when I change the permanent, the old link will be 404. 

I don't know why the comments and category are here either.

Anyone know an easy way to fix this problem? The bulk of the errors are from comment-subscription… like #6 below. I don't even know what the heck these things are. 

Thanks a bunch!

That's strange. Sorry I don't know enough to offer anything helpful. I really need to learn more about Webmaster tools as I probably have errors for my site too and don't even know it.

Those are some strange ones, some look like it's trying to combine posts and category listings.

 

On my second site, I must have some setting that I can not figure out, because every time a new post or page goes up, I get a crawl error with my blog name appended at the end. 

Error shows:

http://www.soyouthinkyoucansav…..Can%20Save

This is the actual webpage:

http://www.soyouthinkyoucansav…..m/2012/02/

Not sure why the So%20You%20Think%20You%20Can%20Save gets added, but it does to every single post, monthly page, or category created. 

If anybody is looking into the other errors and happens to know how to avoid this (or a simple mod to automatically have it redirect universally), I'd also be interested in the expert know-how.

 

Thanks.

Did you ever get this figured out? Now I'm getting them as well.

 I'm looking for editors, beta-readers, and some demographic research for my upcoming novel, Once Upon a Saturn Moon. If you like reading soft sci-fi thrillers, maybe with a touch of romance thrown in, you can find more information at http://seampublishing.com/once…..aturn-moon

I beginning to see this issue within my GWT account. I'm not sure why Google is crawling these non-existing URLs, even the wordpress preview pages are being crawled.

Forgot to update this. Edit your robots.txt file to disallow filenames with a ? From bring crawled.

Now the weird thing is, even though the graph has shown a drop-off of crawl errors since adding that to my robots.txt file, I'm still getting weekly notifications from Google Webmaster Tools about an increase in crawl errors.

Make sure you are clicking through to see where the link is coming from.  You may find it's from another site that linked to your url incorrectly.
