We have all experienced 404 pages on websites, they can appear for various reasons, and at different times.

Imagine you have searched the Internet for hours to find a solution to your problem, you know you can't be the only human being in the world with this problem and suddenly you stumble on a resource. Hours of researching could soon be at an end.

But Argh!The link you clicked on doesn't exist.

To Improve SEO why not add a search function to your 404 page. This will give search engines and users something useful instead of the "Oops! Page".

Try it for yourself, tackle those pages that are cached in Google and turn broken links into a resource.
