Hello. I have been having this problem for several days now and have
read every help section and combed the forums looking for answers to
no avail. My site diagnostics says my URL is "not found". I created
the robots.txt file and put it where I think the root directory is, on
my GPC page where it has a file area there. The bots crawled again
last night and still say URL not found. I really need help with this,
have no clue what to do now. I appreciate any help you can give me.
Thanks.
Hi there. Cass hacks, I noticed you were answering questions pretty
quick so I was hoping to make contact with you about this. My
original question is way down the list there.
I have read through many sections trying to find an answer and hate to
bother you folks but need to know if this is something serious or can
I forget about it.
In my site diagnostics in adsense, it says my URLs are not found. I
added my site to the addurl area but if they cannot find my URLs, does
this mean I will not get indexed or added to google search?
I added the robots.txt file to the file upload area in GPC (hope that
is the correct place to put that, did a lot of research on this). The
bots are attempting to crawl but keep saying URLs not found.
Some links on your pages may be wrong link. May be you are missing the
http:// portion of external link. That's very normal cause for
abnormal 404 not found.
Robots.txt won't help against this error. If it does, it only block
the path to the invalid URL, which is not good because you need Google
to scrawl your pages to put into the search result page.
Your best choice now is to copy the exact invalid URL here and we can
type that on the address bar to see if it really return an error.

OK, I went ahead and checked for you. Here is the result of my
analysis. I hope you can try your best to find where those links are
located on your pages.
