Random 404s in Error Log.

Resolved

(@justt2552)

Hi first of thanks for a great plugin and it works great.

I dont know if this is an issue or an attack on my site however today i noticed random 404 url’s in the error log every 2 minutes.
The URLs are not related to my industry, they seem to be coming from the mining industry.
Also when I log into analytics or search console I can not see any 404 issues.
Anyway here is an example of some below.

Hope you can help. Thanks

Hi,
It’s neither an issue nor an attack. It’s just 404 errors 🙂 Anybody can try to open any URL on your site. There’s no stopping them. Why would they do that? They made a mistake, they’re testing something, or they don’t have anything better to do 🙂 Unless you get millions and millions of hits a day, there’s really nothing to worry about. Especially if you see the URLs have nothing to do with your site/niche.

If you have a minute, please leave a review. It’s what keeps support going. Thank you 🙏 https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/plugin/eps-301-redirects/reviews/#new-post
