You can check for 404 pages and error pages in the webmaster tools or there are alot of online tools to help you identify those pages where you just have to enter your url

Hi there,
You can use your website's Webmaster Tool to find 404 pages:

search console>crawl errors> 404 pages

James_Tarrier

If you change the URL of an existing page on your website, or delete it completely, visitors will get a 404 or "File Not Found" error when they try to access that page. The other reason why you have end up having 404 pages on your site is not in your control. Say your page URL is abc.com/xyz and another site links to that page but with a wrong URL, visitors will get a 404 when they click that link.

You can use Google Webmaster tools to find the 404 pages on your website. Once you have added and verified your site with the Google Webmaster panel, go to Dashboard –> Diagnostics –> Crawl Errors and select the "Not found" option. :)

Start by using a crawler tool like Screaming Frog or Sitebulb to scan the site for broken links - those pesky 404s will pop up in the report faster than you can say "link rot." Next, dive into Google Search Console under the "Coverage" tab; it'll spill the beans on any 404 errors Googlebot has sniffed out.

You can also manually test suspicious URLs by tossing them into your browser to see if they're dead ends. For a quick-and-dirty check, set up a custom 404 page with a tracking script to log URLs hitting it-super handy for catching real-time flops. If you've got server access, peek at the logs for 404 status codes, it's raw data, no fluff. Fix 'em by redirecting to relevant pages or updating internal links to avoid losing traffic to the void.

You can check 404 page URLs using tools like Google Search Console or Screaming Frog, which crawl your site and report broken links. Alternatively, manually test URLs by entering them in the browser to see if they return a "404 Not Found" error.

Here is the simplest way to check which pages on your website are showing 404 errors-

1. Use Google Search Console (Free & Easy)

  • Log in to Google Search Console
  • Select your website property.
  • On the left-hand menu, look for "Index" → then click "Pages" or "Index Coverage" (some accounts still show the old "Coverage" as a sub-option).
  • You'll see a report of all pages: errors, warnings, valid pages, and excluded pages.
  • Look for entries marked Error → Not Found (404).

2. Use a Website Crawler

  • Tools like Screaming Frog, Ahrefs Site Audit, or Sitechecker can crawl your site.
  • They flag all broken links (404s) automatically.
  • Screaming Frog has a free version for up to 500 URLs — perfect for small sites.

3. Check Manually

  • Just type a URL in your browser. If it shows "404 Not Found", it's broken.
  • This works for a few pages, but not practical for big sites.

Pro Tip: After finding 404 URLs, either fix the link, redirect it to a working page (301 redirect), or update/remove it. This keeps your visitors and Google happy.
