410 Gone

The 410 Gone status code indicates that the target resource is no longer available at the server and no forwarding address is known. This is a permanent condition.

Unlike 404, a 410 explicitly tells search engines to remove the page from their index.

• Intentionally removed content
• Expired promotional page
• Discontinued product page

• Use 410 only for intentionally removed content
• For moved content, use 301 redirect instead
• Update sitemaps to remove gone URLs
