Custom 404 Pages
“Hey buddy, how was your birthday celebration last night?”
“Wicked ace! I was so drunk that my pants caught on fire.”
“…come again?”
“Yeah, it was strange. I only remember bits and pieces of it last night.”
“Lol, drinking will do that to you.”
“Most of my memories from last night are 404.”
404 - The 404 or Not Found error message is an HTTP standard response code indicating that the client was able to communicate with the server but either the server could not find what was requested, or it was configured not to fulfill the request and did not reveal the reason why (thanks, wikipedia).
In short, it means you’re S.O.L.
Error pages are abundant with websites that are hundreds or thousands of pages deep, or sites that have pages that often change location. Also, if you have a commonly misspelled domain, people might link you incorrectly.
