I've found I have a number of 404 errors. I'm hoping this doesn't hurt my SEO, so is there a way to fix all of these at once?

Hello, Thanks for the question about 404 errors. One of the best free guides for making great websites is the Google Webmaster site. They have a good page explaining the impact of 404 errors on your website. The best way to fix 404 errors is to track all of the links that generate 404s on your site, then either fix or remove those links from your website. "Fixing" a 404 error is done by either correcting an incorrect link or providing the missing media referred to by the link. You can use a stats program like Awstats (in the cPanel) or Google Analytics to find all of the 404 results from your site. You can also create your own 404 error messages, but that doesn't fix the problem. I hope this helps to answer your question, please let us know if you require any further assistance.
