If you have checked out loads of sites, you've probably encountered some error message every now and then. An error may occur when the website hosting server can't process a request (Error 400), if you need to log in in order to see some content and you haven't done so (Error 401), if you aren't able to access some page (Error 403) or if a link leads to a file that is not on the hosting server (Error 404). Receiving this sort of messages may often be annoying because 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 which will match the layout of your own website and which can have any content which you want - details why the error has occurred, a suggestion how to proceed or even some humorous remark. This kind of function will help you keep the visitor on the site irrespective of the error or the reason for it.
