Errors and re-directions Blogger Features

If you have changed a page URL or deleted a post (s) or a user given an incorrect URL of your site/blog then they will view a generic message like "Sorry the page you are looking not Found" This diverts users attention from your blog but using your creative mind and SEO Advance Setting options, you can fix it in a handsome way. Lets learn how:

Apply Setting Custom Page Not Found in Blogger

Blog owner can do this by Editing the custom page not found setting option in setting>search preferences>errors and redirection>custom page not found.  These features help readers to view a customize HTML message to set the 404 error page not found setting which is very important to avoid loss of potential users or declining traffic graph & ranking of a blog/site.

So lets work on it,  by default Custom Page Not Found Option is Not Set and we have to Set it by clicking on Edit.  The blank box is for customize HTML message which will be displayed in case any thing went wrong.

You can design HTML+CSS codes to give your users a better experience & look. There are different HTML codes can be designed depends on your choice to redirect users on homepage, on search box, on recent or popular posts of your blog. It is recommended that you choose Homepage redirection HTML code as applied and can be viewed in below screen:

To check the things applied properly, type anything incorrect in your blog URL address in a browser, you will view customize error message and look like this:

and in a short while users will be redirected to your blogger home page similar to this one which is a sign of your successful implementation of error page setting. Congratulations, you done it. 

Setting Custom Redirect Features in Blogger

An other important option of under "Errors and Redirections" Tab just below the page not found is Custom Redirects for individual deleted/updated URL pages or posts. This feature is useful when you are planning that instead of reaching on default homepage in response of 404 error page, users directly reach on the right and specific page that's previous URL address was changed, deleted or updated. In this case you should use custom redirect option for one or more pages to help your users to reach on what they are looking over there. 

For example we have an old post "Create your own blog" with URL http://lbsfree.blogspot.com/2017/03/create-your-own-blog.html and due to any reason its URL address changed or the post deleted and now you want that users when access this URL will automatically redirect to a specific new post title (How to create a free blog on blogspot) URL address i.e http://lbsfree.blogspot.com/2017/03/test-post-how-to-create-free-blog.html instead of previous page no more searchable.

To set these features, you will click on Edit and type in FROM (old) URL but keep in mind that you will only give second part of an old post web address (For learning, if we apply it here from above example you need to type only /2017/03/create-your-own-blog.html). The reason is simple because blogger automatically include first part of URL which is your blog address. Now you need to type the new URL address in To  likewise only type second part of new URL for example /2017/03/test-post-how-to-create-free-blog.html. After that check on Permanent and click on Save. To complete this action finally click on Save Changes. 

The result page will look like this, you can check it by giving the same URL as reflecting in following redirected Home webpage:

If you want to add more page (s) redirection click on New redirect and repeat the process explained above. You can edit or delete these options any time. Google web Master tools help you to locate all error pages and by applying fix or a redirect URL you can received more traffic and satisfied users.

Crawlers and indexing

These features are very important and useful and enables you to make your blog to show on top in google and other search engines results by using relevant keywords in titles and text of posts or pages and listing the blog on search engines, if you used these options correctly as incorrect applying changes here can affect inversely and search engines can ignore your blog.

Custom robots header Tags

Google robots frequently crawls the web and look any updated content on any site. Robots then share this information with search engines so when users across the web search some related contents your site show them on the search results. Below you will learn how to enable Custom Robots Header Tags to increase your blog/site visibility for the search engines in the following steps:
