Default Google: 410 Response Codes Don't Generally Cause Indexing Issues

Google: 410 Response Codes Don't Generally Cause Indexing Issues

Google has said time and time again that 404s are normal, they don't cause penalties or indexing issues. But a similar question came up about 410s, which are stricter versions of 404 status codes.

John Mueller said on Twitter that 410 status codes "generally don't cause issues with crawling." He added that you should just "mark as fixed is UI-only, it doesn't change indexing/crawling."
