    The color variation you are using looks nice. I will be interested in seeing it with your new logo. Logos can really make the vBSEO template style pop.

    Just tried looking and keep getting diverted to the aim search page.

    But in the search results you have one easily put right bug showing.
    powered by vBulletin shows up in the search results

    Tried from my second PC which has a different browser set up and this is the page not displayed error

    The page cannot be displayed

    The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings.

    BLAH BLAH BLAH

    Cannot find server or DNS Error
    Internet Explorer

    works perfect here. and no there is no powered by in my titles.

    Think your ISP is having issues maybe?

    an if you mean this
    Code:
    This is a discussion forum powered by vBulletin. To find out about vBulletin, go to http://www.vbulletin.com/
    Thats because google index my site, within minutes... lol i didnt even have a chance to change it, im sure googles cache will update.

    If you still can't view the site, try looking through a web proxy http://w2.hidemyass.com/index.php?q=...w%3D%3D&hl=3ed

    that link should work, if not try typing in my URL

    I noticed my foot in mouth syndrome after posting that about the powered by vb part.

    Both web sites in your sig give the same page not found error.

    Which is strange. If anyone can suggest a web site to use to see if its this end or a genuine error of some kind, I will be more than happy to run the tests

    This is getting strange now. I reckon you blocked Spain
    I just block Chiina myself

    Both those web sites were not found, not even an aim page this time.

    Both kicked up these errors

    This problem can be caused by a variety of issues, including:
    • <LI id=errorExpl2>Internet connectivity has been lost. <LI id=errorExpl3>The website is temporarily unavailable. <LI id=errorExpl4>The Domain Name Server (DNS) is not reachable. <LI id=errorExpl5>The Domain Name Server (DNS) does not have a listing for the website's domain.
    • If this is an HTTPS (secure) address, click Tools, click Internet Options, click Advanced, and check to be sure the SSL and TLS protocols are enabled under the security section.

    I give up Where's the almighty one when he is needed for guidance

    I did try googling the error and it said people living in Ashford Kent are normally to blame for the error.

    There are several things that can cause this vague error message. The most common reasons we have seen are as follows:
    • A firewall or router is blocking access on your network on port 443.
    • The private key for your certificate does not match or is not associated correctly with the certificate.
    • The DNS entries for the web site are configured incorrectly.
    • The web server is not configured to run on port 443 for https requests.
    • The web site is not the IIS Default Website and has not been bound to an IP address for https requests. (IIS defaults this to "All Unassigned")

    I believe you have a dns error

    NS list mismatch: registration authority reports that domain is hosted on the following servers: 'dns2.dnsprotect.org; dns1.dnsprotect.org', but DNS server dns2.dnsprotect.org reports domain to be hosted on 'ns1.speedydns.net; ns2.speedydns.net'. Please make sure that you configure the same DNS servers in registrar database and on your DNS
    Run your URL through the following web sites to see for yourself

    DNS Quick Check - Online DNS Report Tool - Enter the domain to test realtime, Test your DNS delegation, DNS Servers, Mail and Web Servers, Network Admins, Webmasters, Hosting

    Check your domain dns health - DnsQueries

    A clearer view of the fault

    Same problem shows up on all your web sites

    Sweet as

    At a guess, if you had all your web sites configured the same way, you was missing out on a lot of traffic.

    Every web site came to life with no problems then
