Our (four year old) site that has enjoyed top 3-5 ranks across all relevant keywords for about 2.5 years now suddenly took a dive a couple of weeks ago (roughly 140-150 places).
A little investigation using Yahoo's site explorer revealed an URL listed first that reads as follows:
"1. 400 Bad Request"
with the URl listed as "www.oursite.com:443"
Unfortunately, if I try to delete this url using the interface, it asks me if I'm sure want to delete "all 966 Urls" as well (which are legitimate pages).
Any idea what has caused this error, and what can correct it?
