Landing page appearing in 404 log?

    Hello, I’ve recently begun utilizing rank math and it is by all accounts logging the site landing page in the 404 log. 30 hits on it today.

    The thing is, there are no sidetracks on a landing page and all is functioning admirably? I don’t know whether or not this ought to be a worry?

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    We only report the 404s. We do not have information on how or why they are generated.

    You can get further insight into them by enabling the advanced monitor at WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > General Settings > 404 Monitor.

    That will give you more information like referrer and user-agent. You can use that information to track down the source or find out if it is just bots generating those errors.

    You can also fix these errors by redirecting them to a related page on your website:

    Or, you can add them to the exclusion list at WordPress Dashboard > Rank Math > General Settings > 404 Monitor > Exclude Paths

    Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.​​​​​​
