Custom Error Pages
Take a plunge into website error pages. Discover when they show up and why you should make your individual custom error pages.
If you have checked out a lot of websites, you have probably come across some error message from time to time. An error may take place when the server can't process a request (Error 400), if you have to log in so as to see some content and you have not done so (Error 401), if you aren't able to access a page (Error 403) or when a link leads to a file which is not on the server (Error 404). Receiving this type of messages could often be annoying since the pages have nothing in common with the actual site. That’s why some hosting companies allow you to apply your own error pages that will match the design of your own site and that can have any content that you would like - information why the error has taken place, a suggestion how to proceed or even some witty remark. This sort of feature can help you keep the visitor on the site whatever the error and the reason for it.

Custom Error Pages in Cloud Hosting
You can set up custom made error pages for all of your sites with ease if you use any of our
Linux cloud plans. This can easily be done using the Hosted Domains part of the Hepsia Control Panel, provided with all accounts and when you go there, you'll be able to set your customized pages independently for any domain or subdomain. You must upload the files to your account ahead of time and enter the links to them through the process. This function can be de-activated whenever you want and the options you will be able to select from are a standard page from our system or a default Apache server page. Tailor-made error pages may be set with an .htaccess file too. The file should be put in the domain or subdomain folder and it should incorporate some system code and links to the pages. If you aren't tech-savvy, you could copy the entire content necessary for the file from our Help section.
