badboyhouse.co.uk downtime

Unfortunately the web forwarding service at my host 123-reg has been down for most of the day which has resulted in www.badboyhouse.co.uk getting a page cannot be displayed error.

www.badboyhouse.blogspot.com (where my domain forwards to) remains unaffected.

Sorry for any inconvenience if you tried to view the site whilst it was down.

If anyone's got any ideas as an alternative to web forwarding let me know. I'm all ears.

At the minute I dont pay for hosting with 123-reg - I just have the domain registered with them and web forwarding enable to point to my blog.

Hey again!

I've seen in blogger you can set up an external domain...now I don't know what that does exactly, but that might be better than letting 123-reg handle it?

Or are you already doing this?

Anyway, it's in the settings, under the publishing tab...it says you can "Switch to: • Custom Domain (Point your own registered domain name to your blog)"

Hope it helps,
Soupy

i've sort of got that already. i have 123-reg forward any traffic for www.badboyhouse.co.uk to my blogger page.

i've just made the setting you mentioned though as well - this way it will divert any existing visitors to my blogger page to my domain - which is where all my traffic monitoring goes on.

cheers mate!
