If you have checked out many websites, you have probably stumbled upon some error message once in a while. An error can occur if the web hosting server can't process a request (Error 400), if you have to log in in order to see some content and you have not done so (Error 401), if you are not allowed to access a page (Error 403) or if a link leads to a file that is not on the hosting server (Error 404). Receiving such messages may often be aggravating as the pages have nothing in common with the actual website. That’s why some web hosting companies permit you to set your own error pages that will match the layout of your own website and which could have any content that you'd like - details why the error has appeared, a suggestion what you can do or even some humorous remark. Such a feature will help you keep the visitor on the website irrespective of the error and the reason for it.

Custom Error Pages in Cloud Hosting

The personalized error pages feature is offered with every cloud hosting plan which we offer and you will be able to substitute all generic pages with your own with no more than several mouse clicks in your Hepsia hosting CP. You shall need to develop the actual files and to upload them to your account, then to set them for a given domain or subdomain through the Hosted Domains section of the Hepsia Control Panel. You may do this for every web site hosted inside the account separately, so that each group of custom pages shall have the very same design as the site it is part of. If required, you could always go back to a default page from our system or to the default Apache server page. One other way to set personalized error pages is to create an .htaccess file inside the domain/subdomain root folder and to add a few lines in it. If you have not done this before, you could simply copy the required program code from our Help article about this.
