HTTP-error handling

Monday, February 6. 2006

No more ugly HTTP-Error pages on your site; an explanation.
(WebmastersLookup) - Everybody hates to get on a dead link or to search for a non existing webpage.

The ugly 404 page makes visitors leave right away.

That is something a webmaster doesn't want to happen. Losing traffic is allmost a deadsin. The best thing to do is letting the traffic jump back to your homepage (like WebmastersLookup does). The second best think is what we have to offer here.
WebmastersLookup.com wants to help you to overcome the problem of http-errors. For the 10 most common errors we have build a page that will look nice for your unfortunate visitors. What they will see is a neat search directory with many selected websites and a searchbox making a gateway to the WebmastersLookup database. Of course there is a question "Are you looking for....". That is the link at the top of the error page to your own homepage.

All you have to do is download a zip-file, unzip it and put all the files in the map you want to protect against errors. Upload these files (with FTP) to your website.
