  I’ve been contacted and told that my website is down. I can view it just fine from where I’m at so I thought it might be a localized problem with the reader that contacted me.

  Here’s what he received:
  This webpage is not available

  The server at minnesotasportingjournal.com can’t be found, because the DNS lookup failed. DNS is the network service that translates a website’s name to its Internet address. This error is most often caused by having no connection to the Internet or a misconfigured network. It can also be caused by an unresponsive DNS server or a firewall preventing Google Chrome from accessing the network.

  He contacted his internet provider and they told him this:
  I contacted TECH SUPPORT at Hcinet.net and they have the same problem that I have. The tech says that the problem is definitely something on the server end of the website. He tried form his personal pc and the Hcinet server to access the website. The phone number for Hanson Communications tech support is 1 800 528 7667.

  Any help would be appreciated!

  Actually now I can get into the admin, but not the actual website. I wonder if it’s a problem with mydomain.com…I’ll check into that.

  It was an unverified domain through mydomain.com because of the new Icann rules.

  Somehow I had an old contact email address in there, so I think I’ve got it figured out now.

  Thanks!
