4xx Client Error
HTTP 410 Gone
The resource was intentionally and permanently removed.
Check a URL's HTTP statusWhat 410 means
410 is a stronger signal than 404 that the content will not come back.
Common causes
- Content was deliberately deleted, such as an expired listing.
How to fix it
- Use 410 only when there is no relevant replacement; otherwise redirect with 301.
SEO impact
Search engines may drop a 410 URL from the index slightly faster than a 404.
How to check a status code
Enter a URL in the HTTP Status Checker to see its status code, every redirect hop, and response time. For redirect-heavy pages, the Website Speed Test shows how much time redirects add.
