The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

404 Error for Crawlers and "Text-Based" Browsers

Asked by rsokhi in Web-Based CMS, Web Browsers

Tags: Joomla SH404SEF Mojoblog Googlebot

Hi,

I don't know why, but there is one page in my site that does not get indexed by Google. I looked into it, and it was because Google was getting a 404 error for the page every time. I looked into that, and noted that the page was perfectly navigable. It exists! So perplexed, I tried browsing on my blackberry, and I got the 404 error. It seems that the page is not visible for crawlers and perhaps simple "text-based" browsers (or whatever you want to call it), such as the BlackBerry's (note that the new BlackBerry browsers on the Bold etc. are updated and there is no error).

The page is: http://cmnycakes.com/blog/

Don't know if it's my joomla install (v1.0 btw) .htaccess page, my robots.txt (unlikely in my opinion) or SH404SEF, or even the blog, which is the mojoblog component. I've looked into all of them and can't figure it out. My guess would be .htaccess or SH404SEF but I don't get it.

Note that other sub-pages within the blog are perfectly navigable (sub-pages of the same component). It's just the main http://cmnycakes.com/blog/ page.

What gives?

Thanks!
