1. Retry the web page by pressing F5, clicking the refresh/reload button.
2. Check for errors in the URL. Often times the 404 Not Found error appears because the URL was typed wrong or the link that was clicked on points to the wrong URL.
3. Move up one directory level at a time in the URL until you find something.
4. Search for the page at a popular search engine. It’s possible that you simply have the entirely wrong URL in which case a quick Google or Bing search should get you where you want to go.
