SEMrush: incorrect pages found in sitemap.xml – Broken url

Viewing 1 replies (of 1 total)

  • Hi @culator123 ,

    I visited the pages you mentioned, and they are returning a “Page Not Found” error. It’s possible that the original URLs were changed but the redirects to the new URLs were not implemented.

    To fix this issue, you should use a redirect plugin to set up 301 redirects from the old URLs to the new ones. Here’s how you can do it:

    1. Install a Redirect Plugin:
    • Go to Plugins > Add New in your WordPress dashboard.
    • Search for and install a plugin like Redirection or Rank Math Plugin.
    1. Set Up Redirects:
    • After activating the plugin, go to the plugin’s settings page (e.g., Tools > Redirection).
    • Add a new redirect for each of the old URLs, specifying the new URL as the destination.

    2. Verify Redirects:

      • Test the redirects by visiting the old URLs to ensure they correctly redirect to the new URLs.

      Implementing these redirects should resolve the 4XX errors and ensure that visitors and search engines are directed to the correct pages.

      If you need any more help or have further questions, just let me know!

      Best regards,
      Pankaj Mehla
