If you have browsed lots of Internet sites, you've probably encountered some error message every now and then. An error could occur in case the web hosting server cannot process a request (Error 400), if you need to log in so that you can see some content and you haven't done so (Error 401), if you aren't able to access a page (Error 403) or if a link leads to a file that isn't on the server (Error 404). Receiving this kind of messages may often be frustrating as the pages have nothing in common with the actual site. That’s why some web hosting providers allow you to set your own error pages which will match the design of your own website and which could have any content which you'd like - info why the error has occurred, a suggestion what you can do or even some humorous remark. Such a function will help you keep the visitor on the site regardless of the error and the reason for it.
Custom Error Pages in Shared Web Hosting
The custom error pages feature is offered with each shared web hosting plan we offer and you shall be able to swap all the generic pages with your own with no more than a couple of clicks from your Hepsia hosting Control Panel. You shall need to produce the actual files and to upload them to your account, and then to set them for a specific domain or subdomain through the Hosted Domains section of the Hepsia CP. You can do this for every web site hosted inside the account individually, so that each group of custom pages shall have identical design as the website it's part of. When necessary, you can always return back to a default page from our system or to a default Apache server page. A different way to set custom error pages is to create an .htaccess file inside the domain/subdomain root folder and to include a few lines in it. If you haven't done this before, you could simply copy the needed program code from our Help article on this subject.
