Custom 404 Pages

404 file

Have you ever been on a website and gotten a broken link?

Utilize your 404.html page with helpful navigation or a special message.

A website shoots you to a 404.html page. If you haven't set up a page you may see an OOps this link seems to be broken from google. You can set the page to go to your home page or set up a page that says I'm sorry this link is broken. These are the norms and should definitely be the standard for corporate sites.

We on the other hand can have a little jovialty since we're creative beings.

Ours is: http://www.elizabethgleason.com/404.html

Since the CMS manages all your content, you don't have to. It allows you to add new pages yourself.

  • Government applications

Web Banners

We suggest you get out there and start some online advertising. Banner ads are relatively easy to produce. Go surfing to relative sites and see how much they charge for placement of a web banner. I prefer these over traditional print advertisements for two reasons.


  • Number 1: Cost effective The printing cost is eliminated which means you're really just paying for the advertisement itself and well of course the design charge. But the thing is you can check to see how much traffic the site is getting before you commit.
  • Number 2: Worth Many times in a print advertisement you may not know exactly how many leads you receive from an advertisement. But with a web advertisement you can pin point it pretty close with google web analytics (or whatever statistics you have). Check your referring traffic and see exactly where your hits come from. If you want to get very finicky with your web traffic analysis you can set up a page on your site which you drive that campaign too. That way you can count how many times that page gets hit. Voila... divide the number of hits by the cost of the ad and you're on you way.
