Since there were a lot of errors recorded in the crawl error field of Google Search Console, I will write down the cause of the error and the method I used to repair the error in a note.

What is a crawl error?

When the Google Search Robot (crawler) indexes site content, if the content URL is an address that does not exist, it will be recorded as a crawl error in Google Search Console. It is recorded as an error such as 404 (not found).

In conclusion, the specification of the contributor editor attached to Blogger was triggering an error.

When editing posted articles, Blogger users, please make sure that the link addresses are changed before and after editing.

If the URL of the content changes, let's redirect to the new URL using "custom redirect" attached to Blogger.

Error message

An example of how to check the error message of Google Search Console and an error message are as follows.

Google Search Console> Crawl> Crawl Errors

Googlebot could not crawl this URL.

This URL is pointing to a nonexistent page.

Generally, even if 404 occurs, the site's ranking in the search results will not be reduced, but you can use this error information to improve the user's convenience.

Graph after measures are taken

I did not know the phrase and mechanism of crawl errors, so when I opened Google Search Console for the first time a huge error was recorded.

After recognizing the importance of the crawl error, we corrected the link error on the path so we were able to bring the number of errors recorded close to zero.

Cause of link error

The cause of the link error was related to the automatic permalink of the Blogger contribution editor.

If you save and publish "Post settings" in the right pane of the Blogger post editor without changing it, automatic link permission is applied to the link address of the content.

And if you update published posts a few months earlier, the / year / month / portion may be changed automatically by the automatic permalink function. When that contains the English words in the post title is, when you change the title  xxx you may xxx of .html changes.

Since my blog often postscripts and proofreads after posting, the URL of a lot of articles has changed because I did not know the above mechanism.

When updating a posted article, if you edit without posting it back to the draft, the URL will not change.

Repair method
