How to Add Custom Error Page?

February 14, 2019 By kksilvery Leave a Comment

Websites have default 404 error page to inform the readers or visitors that they have landed on a non-existent page. Websites with custom error page have a higher conversion rate and better engagement than regular ones.

What is Error Page?

Websites have a lot of pages, posts, and links on the portal. Pages, Posts and other parts of the sites are removable. Removed pages, or moved content have new links and websites have plenty of links posted on social media, bookmarking sites, backlinks, press releases and more.

If a visitor or traffic visits the page via a removed page or moved content ends up on “404 error page.” The traffic realizes that the page does not exist anymore, and it no longer functions.

Priceless time, effort, and hopes drown in the pipeline, but custom error pages can put a smile on visitors face.
