If you have checked out a lot of sites, you've probably encountered some error message now and again. An error could take place in case the web hosting server cannot process a request (Error 400), if you must log in so as to see some content and you have not done so (Error 401), if you are not allowed to access some webpage (Error 403) or if a link leads to a file that isn't on the website hosting server (Error 404). Receiving such messages could sometimes be aggravating as the pages don't have anything in common with the actual Internet site. That’s why some website hosting service providers allow you to use your own error pages that'll match the design of your own website and that may have any content which you would like - information why the error has taken place, a suggestion how to handle it or even some amusing remark. This type of function shall help you keep the visitor on the site whatever the error or the reason for it.

The feature is supported by all cloud website hosting package which we provide, so after you log in to your Hepsia CP and visit the Hosted Domains section, you can easily click on the Edit button for a domain/subdomain and in the pop-up that will appear, you could choose the type of error page that should show up - a default one from our system, a typical Apache web server page or a customized one. For the last mentioned alternative, you must assign the URL to the page, so if you use personalized pages, you have to upload the files in your hosting account first. An alternative way is to use an .htaccess file positioned inside the domain or subdomain folder with a line for each and every error type. The correct syntax can be located in our Knowledge Base, so you can use this feature even if you do not have any previous experience.
