So you might be asking yourself “What is a Server Header Response?

Whenever you visit a web page, your computer will request data from a server using a HTTP protocol. Right before the requested page is received and rendered in your browser, the web server that hosts the web page will return the HTTP header that has the status code. The status code provides information about the condition of the requested resource. If everything’s ok, a normal web page gets the status code as 200. Of course, we don’t tend to see 200 responses – it’s only when there’s a problem that we see some of the other server header responses, like a 404 Not Found.

I’m sure that was as confusing to some of your as it kind of was for me… for a better understand on how server header responses work, check out the infographic below.
