List of domain name status code

By David on May 9, 2009

After the recent incident (domain name expire and status changed to Redemption period), I decide to find out what are the domain name status actually mean. It is important for all the domain name owner to know what your domain name status and also the expire date in order to avoid any down time occur at your site.

The following details I get it after Googleing for some little time, hope this will help you to understand better your domain name. There are difference status codes use for .com and .net domain name extension compare to other domain name extension, such as ORG, BIZ, US, INFO, and NAME Domain.

COM and NET Domain Name Status Codes

These are the 6 domain name status codes used for COM and NET domains:

ACTIVE: The registry sets this status. The domain can be modified by the registrar. The domain can be renewed. The domain will be included in the zone if the domain has been delegated to at least one name server.

REGISTRY-LOCK: The registry sets this status. The domain can not be modified or deleted by the registrar. The registry must remove the REGISTRY-LOCK status for the registrar to modify the domain. The domain can be renewed. The domain will be included in the zone if the domain has been delegated to at least one name server.

New domain name – tech.david-cheong.com

By David on May 9, 2009

domain name New domain name tech.david cheong.com

Last weekend I found out that my site no longer accessible, after few email conversation with the hosting company tech support, then only found out that my tech.david-cheong.net domain name has been expire.

Domain name expire is not a big issue actually, but the big issue is that the domain name is not registered by my self, so I cannot renew it or recover it. Besides that, after I keep in touch with the registrar company (1 & 1 Internet Ltd) they require for USD 40 just to recover my domain name.

Because I’m just blog for hobby, so there is no point for me to just get a domain name with USD 40. Imediately I decide to register another new domain name – david-cheong.com (it only cost me MYR 40, about 3.5 times cheaper then recover back my old domain name)

There are good and bad thing for a old site with the new domain name. The bad thing is all the SEO link will become broken and most of the reader will not get directed to my site from that link.

The good thing of that is I need to redo all the SEO stuff, after learning from all the SEO guru around the world, is time for me to apply my learning into the practical.

Anyway, today will start with all the inbound link creation and also the forum posting to announce my new domain name
