ESM Website

Post by silloyd »

Tried to view http://www.morrisminorspares.com/ this evening but just getting a page stating 'This Domain Name Has Expired'!!

Anyone know what's going on?

Probably a glitch with their Hosting provider, or someone forgot to renew the Domain registration. I'd be surprised if it's not back within 24 hours.

Looks like they were a bit slow in renewing the domain name.

Even after clearing my browser cache and trying another browser, I'm still getting 'This Domain Name Has Expired' bizzare! :-?

Can take a while for the DNS to propagate and some ISPs cache them for longer than they should. It will come back eventually.

Mine has cleared and reset OK after I took a look last night on reading the OP, and I haven't cleared any cache at my end. Must be your ISP caching it.

Internet Services Provider - the phone company that gives you broadband.
Domain Name Service - translates friendly names like "morrisminorspares.co.uk" to numbers that allow your computer to communicate with the web site that you're trying to reach. Think of it like a phone book (who's old enought to remember them?)
Most of the time you don't need to worry about them.
