Whenever a page on your site doesn't load, an error message shall be shown to the website visitor. Since there are different errors, there are different pages that'll show up, but what is typical for all of them is that they are generic and probably will have practically nothing that resembles the design of your Internet site, which could be aggravating for any visitor. This is the reason why web hosting service providers have introduced a function known as Custom Error Pages. For a number of different errors, visitors will see your custom content, which may be informative or funny, based on your personal preference, and which shall match the design and style of your Internet site, so the pages won't appear as if they are not part of your site at all. You can use this option for numerous errors - 400 (Bad request), 401 (Unauthorized), 403 (Forbidden) and 404 (File not Found).
Custom Error Pages in Shared Hosting
You will be able to set up custom error pages for any of your websites without difficulty when you use any of our shared hosting. This could be done via the Hosted Domains section of the Hepsia Control Panel, provided with all accounts and when you go there, you could set your custom made pages independently for any domain or subdomain. You need to upload the files to your account ahead of time and input the links to them during the process. This function may be de-activated at any time and the options you'll be able to select from are a generic page from our system or a default Apache server page. Customized error pages may be set with an .htaccess file too. The file should be placed in the domain or subdomain folder and it should contain some system code and links to the pages. If you aren't tech-savvy, you could copy the whole content required for the file from our Help section.
