I have a website where Google Webmaster Tools reports 15,000 links as 404 errors. However, all links return a 200 when I visit them. The problem is, that eventhough I can visit these pages and return a 200, all those 15,000 pages won't index in Google. They aren't appearing in search results.

These are constant errors Google Webmaster Tools keeps reporting and I'm not sure what the problem is. We've thought of a DNS issue, but it shouldn't be a DNS issue, because if it were, no page would be indexed (I have 10,000 perfectly indexed).

Regarding URL parameters, my pages do not share a similarity in URL parameters that can make it obvious to me what could be causing the error.

: Would including some of the same words in every product URL be considered keyword stuffing? I have about 130 products on my site, and I want the URL to look like this example.com/unique-product-name-ratings-reviews-prices.

I suggest you temporary put noindex for those 404. It would very much harmful to your site where 2/3 is not indexed.

Then slowly identify what's the real problem. Since you can't disclose your link then no way we can tell what are the real problem.

But I sure you can find plenty of sources on "why google didn't indexed my pages".

Google offers a fetch as Googlebot option as part of Google Webmaster Tools.

Use that tool to fetch your pages from Google's servers. That will show you if it is a problem with connectivity from Google or with the Googlebot user agent as opposed to downtime of your website when nobody can reach it periodically.
