Cyber Renegade asked:

Hello,

I found this code that can display a visitor’s name. However, there is an extra bit I don’t want, the last visit date of the visitor, can someone tidy this up a bit?

NewCode:
this code is rather long can someone tidy it up a bit? I do not want the last visit time, just the name and the option to change the name.
thanks

Please get read of parts that is not needed e.g the author.

Thanks!

Best way to backorder a domain name?

Thursday 1 December 2011 @ 10:06 am

Lazyboy asked:

There is a domain that I want to buy that is expiring next month.

The domain registrar is currently a no-name domain seller. It looks like the person is not going to renew it. Should I backorder it through the no-name registrar (will they have first dibs or something?) or should I go through bigger names like pool.com or enom

Is there an archive of old DNS records somewhere?

Monday 21 November 2011 @ 8:48 pm

Couman asked:

Kind of like the “Wayback Machine” at archive.org, but for DNS (domain names). It would be really handy, like when somebody accidentally let’s their domain name expire but the website still exists, you could just look up what IP address example.com resolve to last month and go there.

Does anyone know if such a service exists?
Thanks Fed, but that’s not always true. DNS and web hosting are completely separate things. It’s common to get both through one company, but not everybody does. I have personally encountered cases where this would be useful.

How would I go about transferring my Domain to another Domain Host? (Full details inside)?

Thursday 17 November 2011 @ 6:37 am

The Academic Activist asked:

My website domain is soon to expire and will enter a “Renewal Hold”. I don’t wish to renew the domain name with the current host I am with (Streamline.net) as I find them absolutely shambolic. How would I go about transferring the domain to another host whilst in this renewal hold, and then renewing it with that new host?

Renewing domain name problems -.co.uk domain?

Monday 17 October 2011 @ 11:36 am

Errapolis asked:

I have a domain name which expired around a week ago. The company i had transferred it to want me to renew it (it is appearing as a renewal on their site) with them but the fees are too much.

I tried to repurchase it at another website but its marked as “taken” and won’t allow me to reregister.

I have carried out a WHOIS check and no-one else has taken it, the domain is still appearing as registered to me but expired a week ago.

Why won’t it allow me to repurchase it, is there anything I have to do to fix this?
I have also attempted to “transfer” the domain to another company (the one i want to repurchase from) and it wont let me as it’s expired. Totally confused now?

I bought a domain name that a company let expire. How much is it worth?

Tuesday 4 October 2011 @ 8:03 am

Ray asked:

I bought a domain name that a company let expired and now the company says they are going to sue me?? My friend says they are just trying to scare me because they let it expire and once it expires then it’s up for grabs. He says I can resell it to them for a lot of money? if that is true than how much can I resell it for? Let’s say the name is Nike, Johnson & Johnson, Boeing or Pepsi just to give you an idea.

Friday 23 September 2011 @ 4:56 pm

Bankerfelix asked:

I have a good dot-com name i created 10 years ago and 6 months ago, i forgot to renew and it got expired and immediately picked up by somebody (ouch and dammmm). I can’t do nothing about it. So I am planning to file trademark on the Dot-Com name for my origional business concept since the new owner has not done anything to it yet…Trade Mark Attorney pls advise. Because I am the fist to trade mark and copyrighted the domain name not the owner of the domain! Right?
