Have you ever been on a site and clicked on a link that only led you to a "404 - Not Found" error page? These are called broken or dead links.

On the flip side, as a content producer of any sites, this can lead to many negative consequences like a missed opportunity to reach a potential customer or a chance for a new user to find your site.
