Missing pages. Real customers waiting. 404 Guard helps keep website resources available for shoppers.

WOOCOMMERCE AND CUSTOMER ENQUIRIES

Save your website’s time for people ready to buy.

Deleted product links, bot scans and missing files can use resources your shop needs. 404 Guard helps reduce the work caused by those dead-end requests.

$97 AUD for a 12-month licence during the introductory offer. Normal price $199 AUD. Including GST.

WHEN DEAD LINKS ADD UP

The customer has a full cart. Your website has other work to do.

A shop changes over time. Products are removed, old campaigns still have links and some bots try addresses that never existed. WordPress can spend time answering those requests while a customer is browsing or checking out.

404 Guard focuses on the missing requests. Your caching, shop and security plugins keep doing their own jobs.

An online shop protected above a stormy sea of missing-page requests.

Three places to look for wasted work

DELETED PRODUCTS

Old links keep being followed

Where there’s a suitable replacement, keep a deliberate redirect. Otherwise give visitors a useful missing-page response.

MISSING FILES

The same image or font is gone

A broken file reference can generate another missing request whenever a page loads. Reduce that work while fixing the cause.

BOT SCANS

Random paths compete with shoppers

Requests for missing files and pages can arrive in waves. Check whether they’re contributing to the load on your shop.

Check the whole shopping journey.

A fast 404 result is useful only if the shop still works as customers expect. Build the safe list and test the shop before enabling stronger protection.

Browsing and old links

Check products, categories, search and redirects from old campaigns. A customer following an old link needs a useful next step.

Cart and checkout

Check add-to-cart, mini-cart updates, cart, checkout and account pages. Use your normal staging or payment test process.

If an important request stops working, use Monitor mode while identifying the address and making it safe. Avoid broad exclusions that let every unknown request through.

Check the difference on your shop.

Start with the 500-hit trial and compare response times while checking customer journeys.

Questions from shop owners

No plugin can guarantee sales. The aim is to reduce wasted WordPress work so more capacity is available for people using the shop.

Supported redirect sources can be included in the safe list so the original redirect plugin handles them. Check important product and campaign links before turning protection on.

Yes. Optional installation and configuration is $220 once-off for websites with up to 500 pages, or $660 for larger sites. The licence is additional.
