It gives the company an opportunity to further their theme. What is a 404 error exactly? A 404-error page is also known as a &#8220;page not found&#8221; page. According to Mailchimp, a website may display the 404-error page by a server when a user tries to access a URL that does not exist or cannot be found. That is not the only reason one may see a 404-error page. This could be a result of a page that has been deleted, moved to a different location, or because of a mistyped URL. Now that we have a solid understanding of 404-error pages, let&#8217;s look at a couple of creative ones!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">20th Century Studios<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.pagecloud.com\/kS9SJBt0jKwA11sAW-97plj52sE=\/1000x0\/filters:no_upscale()\/web\/Screen_Shot_2022-08-16_at_1.32.15_PM-ia934.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>20th Century Studios embraces the use of puns while also referencing one of their films! This adds a moment to laugh while also being reminded of some of the content produced by the studio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My Codeless Website<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.pagecloud.com\/PuTTJR_7vehl79rzSQA2BdHQ2j0=\/1000x0\/filters:no_upscale()\/web\/Screen_Shot_2022-08-16_at_3.03.32_PM-u25a8.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This 404-page acts as a great method for a visitor to interact with the page and the tools the site has to offer. Their 404 page creates an accidental but also purposeful opportunity to engage and connect with the visitors of their site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pixar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.pagecloud.com\/EN2xx0mJIZ3tkqvFTpi74a-YBGE=\/1000x0\/filters:no_upscale()\/blogmerge\/ae47c510-6a5f-4b5a-bafe-7382ba9e69c3.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Pixar embraces the use of appropriate characters to fit the situation. They use references to their own content which is super interesting and put a creative twist on it! They also embrace the use of white space which can often be overlooked. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">LEGO<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/img.pagecloud.com\/jJcVTerA_5Wbq0TJOLfkxAc1txg=\/1000x0\/filters:no_upscale()\/web\/Screen_Shot_2022-08-16_at_1.45.13_PM-a6695.png\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar to Pixar, LEGO also embraces the use of a well-known character of theirs. With a simple image and text, they are able to create a fun and efficient page without over complicating it. It was also smart to have a button to send users back to a familiar part of the site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are interested in looking at some other 404 error pages, follow this link: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pagecloud.com\/blog\/best-404-pages\">https:\/\/www.pagecloud.com\/blog\/best-404-pages<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other sources used: <a href=\"https:\/\/mailchimp.com\/resources\/404-page\/\">https:\/\/mailchimp.com\/resources\/404-page\/<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many websites create and design 404-error pages in a manner that fits the aesthetic and mood of the site itself.
