- 500 Internal Server Error
This is the most common error message seen by internet users. This is a general error message that may appear whenever a web server meets an internal problem. When the web hosting server is congested, Error 500 is most usually seen. This error message can be resolved by refreshing the page, emptying your browser’s cache, deleting all of your web browser’s cookies, or restarting the web browser. If you encounter this issue on your website, contact your web hosting provider; if you have a WordPress site, it might be due to a conflict with one of your third-party plugins. Try uninstalling these plugins one by one in cPanel to see which one is causing the problem.
- 401 Unauthorised
A 401 unauthorised error is an HTTP status code message that appears frequently when a user attempts to access an unauthorised website or after a failed login attempt to an unauthorised website. Normally, the webmaster uses cPanel to safeguard these unauthorized websites with a password.
- 400 Bad Request:
This error message indicates that your web browser failed to respond to your request. This generally indicates that the data delivered by the browser does not adhere to the http protocol’s requirements. A request with improper syntax cannot be handled by the server. This might signal that the user’s internet connection is unstable, that the operating system has a security vulnerability, that there is a caching problem, or that the browser is malfunctioning.
- 403 Forbidden:
If you use a web browser to access a restricted directory, you will get this error message, which indicates that there is no login option on the website. The most common reason a user might see this error message is if the website does not enable users to browse the site’s file directory structure or if the specific file requested is not accessible over the web. For security reasons, you can install 403 protection on your own site by concealing the directory structure or files that contain vulnerable information. This is an excellent method for preventing your website from being hacked. Although many web servers have this capability by default, you may add an additional degree of protection to your site by logging into your cPanel account, going to the Advanced menu box, and selecting Index Manager. You may customize how your users see a certain directory on your website by selecting ‘No Indexing’ on the directory you want to protect.
- 404 Not Found:
When a user attempts to access a non-existent web page, a 404 not found error message will appear. This warning is usually displayed when a user departs the browser, pushes the stop button, or clicks on a link too quickly – but it can also appear when a file is too large or a server is functioning too slowly.
You have almost probably come across a 404 error while surfing the web. If the server cannot find anything on the requested location, a 404 error message will be displayed.
This is most commonly caused by a mistyped URL, but it can also happen when users try to access removed or temporally inaccessible pages. You should make every effort to reduce the number of 404s on your website since they nearly always increase your bounce rate.
It is worth noting that the 404 message and the 410 error page are quite similar. While both indicate that the server was unable to identify the requested file, the 410 indicates that this is a permanent state, meaning that the resource was most likely made unavailable on purpose.
