I don't normally post specific URLs here and pick on certain companies. In this case I can't because there's no url to post.

I just saw the number search result for a term (with 182,000 pages in the SERPs) that doesn't have a URL. It looks like this in the Google SERPs:


EveryFreeGift.com - Get anything you want for FREE!
... EveryFreeGift is solely responsible for all incentive fulfillment. ...
Copyright © 2004. EveryFreeGift.com. All Rights Reserved.
-/ - 33k - Cached - Similar pages

In this case, if you go to click on the URL in the Google SERP it tries to go to: http://-/

I looked at the actual URL and the site is delivering a 302 from the main page to the index.html page. The third result in the listing is whacky as well.

Here's the link (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=everyfreegift) if you're interesting in seeing the SERP I'm talking about.

I noticed this today also...something weird is going on there. I also noticed that 3 of my newer sites went from having as many as 13 backlinks, are now at 0 backlings. There are also 2 automated API tools that I use to check on Google & neither of them is functioning correctly? I wonder if no titles & useless info is now integrated into their new algo? ;)

I haven't seen it since, prob. an update anomaly? (the missing titles) Your sarcasm suggests we are ignorant...care to justify?

I also had a big problem with Googles BlogSpot today. Their whole system was messed up and generating thousands of 500 internal server errors.

Somebody screwed up!
