Custom 404 Error Pages for Blogger

"The 404 or Not Found error message is a HTTP standard response code indicating that the client was able to communicate with the server, but the server could not find what was requested."

In simple words the page that will be displayed when the actual page is not found is called a 404 Error Page.

Our 404 page will prompt visitor that he has landed a wrong page and will provide him three important options which are:

• Go Back to the page from where he came from. We will use JavaScript here.
• Contact the Admin and inform him about the broken link. This will help you track broken links
• And finally to provide a link to homepage.

So lets get to work to achieve all the above. Simply follow the easy steps below to display 404 error message uniquely.
