Broken links can be very frustrating to a user and are also disliked by the search engine crawlers. If a 404 error is displayed this means the page can not be found or the page is not working correctly.

Also ensure that images are displaying correctly and are working across all the browsers. All the text should obviously display correctly and be readable. If text is not displaying correctly (example: text is running over images or is over lapping other text).

There maybe some very complex coding issues which need addressing with your site or they maybe be just a few simple tweets which need adjusting.

The goal of your site is for the user to navigate your site as easily as possible and for your site to be displayed in search engine results pages as efficiently as possible.
