A high Page View count on your 404 page does not indicate a bug or broken functionality. Bots and automated scripts regularly scan domains for common URLs, and when those URLs don’t exist, each request registers as a 404 page view. This is standard behavior across websites and is not cause for concern.

FAQs

Why does my 404 page have so many views?

Bots and automated scripts continuously scan domains looking for common URLs. When those URLs don’t exist on your site, each request gets logged as a 404 page view, which inflates the count.

Should I be concerned about high 404 page views?

No. Elevated 404 page views from bot traffic are normal and do not affect your site performance or visitor experience.
