How to Track 404 Errors for Florists
A customer finds your website searching for “wedding florists near me.” They click to see your wedding portfolio, but land on a “Page Not Found” error. They close the browser and call your competitor instead.
Why 404 Errors Matter for Florists
Your floral shop relies on visuals. Customers want to see arrangements before ordering.
Seasonal sales suffer. Holiday seasons like Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day drive huge revenue. Broken links during these peak times mean missed sales. You cannot afford downtime when orders flood in.
Wedding inquiries get lost. Brides and grooms plan months ahead. They browse galleries, compare packages, and read testimonials. A broken link to your wedding services page kills that inquiry before it starts.
Reputation damage. In a creative business, your website reflects your craftsmanship. Broken links suggest broken attention to detail.
How to Check in GA4
Open GA4 and go to Reports > Engagement > Pages and screens. Scan the URL list for entries containing “404,” “not-found,” or “error.” Sort by views to see which broken pages get the most traffic.
For more detailed analysis, use the Explore feature. Create a new free-form report. Add “Page path” as a dimension and filter for URLs containing error terms. Check this monthly, especially after updating product pages or adding new arrangements.

Checking GA4 for 404 errors takes time you do not have during busy seasons. ClawAnalytics streamlines this completely.
You might ask: “Did my Valentine’s Day special break?” or “Which arrangements have the most dead links?” ClawAnalytics answers in seconds. No filtering or configuration required.
