If you have checked out a lot of Internet sites, you've probably stumbled upon some error message once in a while. An error could take place when the server can't process a request (Error 400), if you must log in to see some content and you have not done so (Error 401), if you aren't allowed to access some page (Error 403) or when a link leads to a file that isn't on the hosting server (Error 404). Encountering such messages may sometimes be frustrating as the pages have absolutely nothing in common with the actual Internet site. That’s why some website hosting providers allow you to apply your own error pages which will match the design of your own Internet site and that may have any content which you want - info why the error has occurred, a suggestion how to proceed or even some humorous remark. This kind of function can help you keep the visitor on the site no matter the error and the reason for it.
