Can Anyone help me with Google search console soft 404 error?
-
Hello everyone,
I just build one site on WordPress and submitted it to the Google search console along with the sitemap. Some URLs got indexed but one of my URL is showing error in Search console. My post https://hotpass.site/create-subdomain-godaddy/ is showing soft error 404 webpage not available in Google search console.
I have rechecked the site and seo settings. Nothing is there. I have even checked it with LIVE URL test. But still Search console is not accepting this URL. Can anyone help me with this? Help will be appriciated.

Thank you. This worked. Google search console had falsely flagged my links as soft 404. Its normal now.
Thanks for help!

I recently solved a problem where about 85 URLs were falsely flagged as Soft 404s. The solution can be found here https://moz.com/community/q/false-soft-404s-shadow-bans-and-old-user-generated-content.
In my case I just had to change the URLs of the pages. If you try to get Google to validate a fix and your URL still shows up as a soft 404, you might want to just change the URL, submit a sitemap with the new URL in it, and 301 the old one.

I did not catch . Doesn't display the sitemap in search console or your site?

How is Google Analytics defining page depth?
We run two websites and as part of our KPIs we are treating those who visit 3 or more pages of our website as a client served. As a digital team we are not convinced that this is the best metric to use as the improvements we are making to the sites mean that people are able to find the information quicker. Additionally other organisations including forums etc link to us so those users will get the info they need in one click. What I would like to know is how Google calculates page depth in GA. Are they treating the landing page as ground zero and then when users clicks a link they go one page deep? Or is the landing page, page depth 1 . Is page depth a measure of how many clicks a user needs to find their information?

Mobile and Google Analytics
As my mobile numbers are going up in Google Analytics I'm trying to figure out what phone runs what browser. I see that 93% of mobile users have Safari which I believe is iPhone, iPad and iPods. There is a 6% usage of "Mozilla Compatible Agent". What cell phone would this be?
