Every day you visit one of them. The pages, which don't exist any longer, have moved to a new server or have never existed at all. Once you've missed your intended destination, either through a bad or outdated link, or a typo in the page you were hoping to reach, you'll hopefully get an internal error message from the server. However, by default these messages aren't that helpful - after all, you are looking for the information, not for the reason you can't find this information.

Good news - it doesn't have to be this way. You can style server error messages just the way you style any other pages. It's not only a more elegant way to deal with errors, but is also extremely useful for keeping users on your web-site, finding new clients or communicating with the old ones.
