If I'm looking for a specific page on the site, I'm going to be confused and frustrated if a busy page with a bunch of links pops up, or a page that looks identical to the homepage ("what's this? I didn't want the homepage!"). I prefer a simple, friendly message with a redirect. If you want to use the page to promote some products, fine, but keep it simple. The main thing is keeping the visitor oriented to what's going on, so they don't get confused and leave the site.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5144366.post-67855700022594975392008-01-24T17:32:00.000-08:002008-01-24T17:32:00.000-08:00I had a huge giggle when I noticed some of the sites you pointed out in 2001 (as having awful error pages), are yet yet to change them. <BR/><BR/>Wonder if you should point out Google Alerts to them? :)Lidnoreply@blogger.com
