Domain woes…
September 26, 2004 on 8:31 pm | In Uncategorized |A little rant about my domain woes.
I’d had a couple complaints about http://inventblog.com not working. Turns out (according to the 3 people at GoDaddy I talked to) that the only way you can do that is to forward the domains to TypePad. So, I decided to try it out. Immediately, the site goes dead (over the weekend inventblog.com was dead). Of course I freaked. GoDaddy THEN tells me (note before I changed the setting) that the site will be down for 48 hours. I again freak.
Well, www.inventblog.com (and inventblog.com) came back online again today (Sunday). Annoyingly, I realize that all Google indexing (and posts by other bloggers) to www.inventblog.com/blahblahblah are now dead. Additional freakage.
So, I don’t know what I am going to do…undo the damage and go back to the old way (and be down for 48 hours in the process) or stick it out and apologize to everyone with dead links. I don’t know. I suppose I’ll leave it alone at least until the weekend…rather than have the site be down for 48 hours again. I’ve been talking about migrating to Movable Type. Maybe I should leave everything at nip.blogs.com until I make that move.
UPDATE: www.inventblog.com is NOT working, whereas inventblog.com is. ARGH! Back to the drawing board.
UPDATE #2: Looks like they are fixed. GoDaddy.com tech support is pretty good…sometimes you have to ask a question over again, but they’ll eventually get you the correct answer.
