You may have noticed one page which we all seem to land on, and yet 8 out of 10 times we don’t use this page at all, the page in question is our Error 404 Page.
What is a 404 Error?
According to Wikipedia
The 404 or Not Found error message is an HTTP standard response code indicating that the client was able to communicate with the server but either the server could not find what was requested, or it was configured not to fulfill the request and not reveal the reason why. 404 errors should not be confused with “server not found” or similar errors, in which a connection to the destination server cannot be made at all.
So you have typed something in the URL or clicked on a link and all the sudden you have found yourself in the middle of nowhere, so welcome to the world of the Error 404 page.
But what have you done wrong?

Let’s look at the real world, we all have our dreams in life and to reach them we all do one thing in common we PLAN. To get to these dreams we set ourselves targets or GOALS. These goals can come in various forms, we can set ourselves many short term or immediate goals which we use to gauge our final objective.
So if we look at our blogs are they much different?

What, Why, When, Where and How of Comments
Comments are probably the best part about blogging and at times the most rewarding, you find me someone who doesn’t like to hear “that’s an inspiring article” or “you really helped me”.
