       Difference in 404 and 410 error
       By: Lion_Heart Date: October 20, 2012, 12:25 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       404 errors are the HTTP response codes that every web developer
       will know and understand: Page not found. However, it may be
       interpreted by search engines as 'Page not found, but we'll
       check back some other time'. The 410 response is supposed to
       mean 'Page not found, permanently'; it's a web site's way of
       saying that the requested URL will never exist.
       Whether search engines really bother to tell the difference
       between these two http statuses is unclear. For example, back in
       late 2011 Matt Cutts presented a webmaster video in which he
       'will need to check with the crawl team' if they treat 404 and
       410 errors differently. He's given no public response to that,
       as yet.
