Plugin / 404 Monitor by Rank Math

Rank Math

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Technically no. Let us explain. The 404 monitor only records a 404 error when a user actually tries to access it. We can design the plugin to scan your entire website for 404 errors, but that will take up an immense amount of server resources, and is not a practical solution. By capturing errors when they happen, the 404 monitor captures the most important errors first – errors that users are affected by. You can use this, and the other information captured by the 404 monitor to work on 404 errors that matter most to you and your users.
The 404 monitor does not affect the front-end of your website and is therefore compatible with all themes.
No. The 404 monitor will not affect your website’s speed at all. Because the 404 monitor only captures errors when they happen, the plugin is virtually dormant on your website. It virtually does not consume any resources when sitting on an idle website.
No, the 404 monitor is a stand-alone plugin that does not require Rank Math to function. Although, the 404 monitor is part of Rank Math as well. So, if you already have Rank Math installed, you don’t need to install the 404 monitor separately.
No. We’ve extensively tested the 404 monitor, and it does not conflict with any other plugins. There is a catch though. If you’re using another 404 monitor, you might run into performance or other issues. We would recommend that you only use a single plugin to monitor 404 errors.
Yes and no. The 404 monitor plugin will only help you identify the errors; you will still need to fix the errors. To do that, a redirection plugin is a must. However, we recommend that you use the 404 monitor’s sister plugin, Redirection. Both the plugins are designed to work together and will make the process of finding and fixing 404 errors easy and seamless.
We don’t recommend it. Although Google has mentioned on numerous occasions that they don’t consider 404 errors when calculating SEO rankings, the problem goes deeper. 404 errors affect the users directly and affect their experience with your website – which is a strong ranking signal. That is why, even if you have just a few 404 errors on your website, you should fix them as possible.
We can’t say for sure. But what we can be sure of is that by fixing your 404 errors, you will improve the user experience of your website, which is a strong signal to Google for search engine rankings. Even if you don’t get any new traffic, you will be serving your existing users better, which will lead to better conversions on your website.
