Day Eighteen

Friday 4th of October, 9:00am to 6:00pm

Today, I was assigned the task of redesigning the Error 404 page that appears due to broken links on the site.

Error 404 Page Design

• Consistent website navigation, footer and branding:

Connect the 404 error page design to the rest of est living both visually (logo and brand colors) and functionally, by including the top navigation and footer.

• Accessibility compliance:

All of the pages should reflect accessibility best practices, including the 404 page.

• Clear error message:

There should be no confusion that this is an error page. The error message should load immediately and be the most prominent element on the page.

• Recommended action(s):

Include at least one option—in the body of the page, separate from the navigation and footer. Include a link directly under the error message, or include a search bar to help users find exactly what they’re looking for.
