do you need a 404 page
This was my first habrablog and all the 404-page fans have already managed to tell me, in connection with which, the idea was edited. So let's consider all the FOR and AGAINST pages 404.
BEHIND:
1. habrahabr.ru/vvdvdvdeer - the user understands that there is no page (he is not going anywhere) He sits, reads, analyzes, makes a decision.
')
2. There is a standard RFC 2616, there is a description, it means you need to adhere to standards
3. www.yandex.ru/govno-vopros - approximately the same as in paragraph 1, but we can advertise, add a “site header” with a search form, or display a site map.
All these FOR can be seen under my blog in the comments. But I wrote about something else. I wrote about the disadvantages of the user (and not the admin, the owner of the site, the advertising department, continue the list by yourself)
SO AGAINST:
1. It is necessary to reduce the number of unnecessary iterations! Why should I see the document deleted? I need to get to the place where you can find it. Those. if it has been moved to another directory, you need to put an autotransfer to its new location, if it’s deleted at all for uselessness, give a message that the document has been deleted and suggest possible solutions to the situation (for example, price.ru/bin/price/ctgrlist?pnam=shnyaga&start = 0 ).
2. Users, especially experienced ones, do not like banners. I need information for which I came there, and not advertising.
3. Sometimes they place a site map there, which in itself is not bad, but in my opinion, it also shifts the care of finding the necessary information on the shoulders of the user. Since it does not offer solutions to the problem.
4. The argument that the user will inform the admin about this error through the form is good, but not the fact that this is a concern for the users of the site, rather, it is some kind of research through the users of system bugs.
