Common HTTP Error Status Code

Have you ever seen a weird code pop up while browsing a website? It’s like finding a secret message! You know the website isn’t working right, but figuring out what’s wrong can feel like solving a puzzle.

For folks who own websites but aren’t tech experts, this can be confusing. Who should they call for help? The hosting company or the website builder? It’s a bit of a mystery!

Let’s dive into this topic and clear up some confusion, shall we?

When a website fails, it usually shows an error message with a number or code. These codes help identify what went wrong. Here are some common ones:

404 Not Found: This means the server couldn’t find the page you requested.

500 Internal Server Error: Something’s wrong with the server, but it’s not clear what.

503 Service Unavailable: The server can’t handle your request right now, often because it’s too busy or under maintenance.

403 Forbidden: You’re not allowed to access the page for some reason, like lacking permission.

502 Bad Gateway: The server received an invalid response from another server it tried to communicate with.

These codes help troubleshoot website problems and figure out what’s causing the issue. Hopefully, this will make things easier for all of you.
