how to TAME your 404 traffic esp if you have a shitload of domains..
 

Here is what i do to TAME my 404..........

Send all 404 to one centralized domain such as ....


meow.com/404.html

OK now all your 404 is flowing to that centralized page now lets say one day you want to use your 404 to feed a new project instead of going to every htaccess in every domain you just go to the centralized one and 1,2,3 wallaaaaaaaaaaaaa


Seems obvious but might help out afew nOObs in here

wtf? :1orglaugh
Those noobs who can't do that probebly got no idea what htaccess is.

I sale juicy's 404

Wow .. that's a really good tip! Thanks juicy! :thumbsup

do you have any advice on what to do to keep my glans shiny and fresh

Use a brillo pad once a week then use a show polisher

use one .htaccess below the domain root in the users folder will control all the domains in that folder.

/usr/home/user1/.htaccess

True

But if you have domains spread across multiple hosts and servers that wont really help

I'm using a whole range of domains for my 404 purposes.

I've got a bunch of servers, every sever has one single domain that recieves every 404 hit from that specific server, this way i can track all my 404 hits per server.

The only thing that the domain does is redirect to a central uberdomain, wich gives me a total figure of all 404's i'm recieving, and from there all the 404 gets redirected to whatever i want.

Kinda neat if you ask me :Graucho

I had some traffic from your 404 page showing up in my stats yesterday. Thanks!

On top of sending your traffic to one domain you can use one .htaccess for thousands of domains you know damn well there is some fool uploading 50 copies of .htaccess out there.
