If you have checked out lots of websites, you have probably encountered some error message every now and then. An error could occur when the web hosting server can't process a request (Error 400), if you need to log in so that you can see some content and you have not done so (Error 401), if you are not allowed to access a webpage (Error 403) or when a link leads to a file that isn't on the server (Error 404). Receiving this sort of messages could sometimes be annoying since the pages have absolutely nothing in common with the actual site. That’s why some web hosting providers permit you to set your own error pages that will match the design of your own site and that may have any content which you want - information why the error has appeared, a suggestion how to proceed or even some humorous remark. This kind of feature can help you keep the visitor on the website regardless of the error or the reason for it.
Custom Error Pages in Cloud Web Hosting
You'll be able to set up custom made error pages for each of your sites effortlessly if you use any of our Linux cloud web hosting. This can be done via the Hosted Domains part of the Hepsia CP, which comes with all accounts as soon as you go there, you could set your personalized pages independently for any domain or subdomain. You need to upload the files to your account in advance and input the links to them through the process. This feature could be de-activated anytime and the options you'll be able to pick from are a standard page from our system or a default Apache web server page. Tailor-made error pages could be set with an .htaccess file as well. The file should be put in the domain or subdomain folder and it must include some system code and links to the pages. If you are not tech-savvy, you can copy the whole content you'll need for the file from our Help section.
Custom Error Pages in Semi-dedicated Hosting
When you host your Internet sites in a semi-dedicated server account from us, you may set custom error pages for each of them easily using our in-house developed Hepsia hosting Control Panel. With just a couple of clicks in the Hosted Domains section, you'll be able to edit the default setting from a system page to a customized one for each of the four error types. All you should do is supply a link to each file that you have uploaded before that and then save the change. If necessary, you'll be able to revert this customization whenever you want and in exactly the same way. If you prefer, you could use an .htaccess file as well. It must be created/uploaded inside the domain or subdomain folder associated with the internet site whose error pages you would want to alter and the content for this type of file can be found in our Help article for this matter.
