Let\u2019s face it, links break, servers go down, pages go MIA and somehow all your web visitors manage to land on the dreaded error page. Eek! While there\u2019s no full-proof way to ensure you will never have to serve up an error page, with cPanel you can, at the very least, make it a page that is enjoyable to look at.<\/p>\n

In cPanel & WHM 56, users can create custom Error Pages for loads of different HTTP status codes. Whether it’s a bad request, a missing page, bandwidth limitations or gateway timeouts, cPanel users can navigate to the Advanced settings<\/em> of their account and select Error Pages<\/em> to begin customizing away.<\/p>\n

Why use custom error pages?<\/b>
\nThink of customized error pages as an opportunity to make the best out of a bad situation. Sure, your site visitor or user isn\u2019t getting the content they desire, but until the issue can be remedied, you can use that moment as an opportunity to promote a new product, share additional services, or just to let them know that the site should be back up and running soon.<\/p>\n

Get started!<\/b>
\nHead over to your Advanced feature<\/em> section and begin exploring the variety of error pages available to customize. Find out more about custom error pages\u00a0in our documentation<\/a>\u00a0and let us know your thoughts by leaving a comment below!<\/p>\n
