Can anyone please make my day with this domain
-
Hi i have been waiting for a long time to buy [removed by admin] as i have the .co.uk name and it is now up for sale for 12 dollars. but here is the problem. i am in spain at the moment and not due back for two weeks, i have joined go daddy as they say they have it up for sale at 12 dollars but after joining the site and trying to buy it i am coming across major problems as the screen is just coming blank. it is not taking me direct to the auction or buy now section of the site and i do not know what is going on. spent nearly four hours trying to sort this out.
would anyone please help me find out what is going on as i really need this domain name for my site so i can start using the .com for the site and replace it with the .co.uk

This is EXACTLY why I see your work as such an invaluable part of the SEOmoz Q&A Keri. You rock!

Diane, I have removed the domain in question from your post. You are much more likely to have someone buy that domain and then try to sell it to you for a large amount of money than you are to find a random person buy it and sell it to you at cost.
I suggest calling GoDaddy (if they are the ones offering it) and work with them on the phone, or find someone you trust to buy it for you.
-
I suggest calling them or trying network solutions.com

There is no way for us to troubleshoot the problem without being there or gaining a much better understanding of the issue you are facing.
Some basic suggestions:
-
check to ensure you do not have a pop-up blocker turned on
-
check to ensure you do not have an ad-blocker turned on
-
try a different browser (IE, Chrome, FF). If that does not work, try a different pc.
-
if all else fails, call someone you trust and ask them to purchase the domain.
This Q&A is likely already in search results, and not everyone is honest so you should purchase the domain asap!
PS. Edit your Q&A and remove the domain name asap. It should not have been mentioned publicly.

Similar Keywords on Addon Domain
Hi all, I'm looking at setting up a second website targeting some similar keywords to my existing blog. I host the site through bluehost and am considering hosting the other website as an addon Domain. Whilst the content on both websites will be different both will target the same keywords. Does anyone know if because I'm targeting the same keys words using an addon Domain this could impact my existings site google rankings? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Move from 4 Domains to 1
Hey Moz Community We are running 4 domains at the moment. www.rapturecamps.com www.surfcamp.travel www.surfcampbali.com www.surfcampinportugal.com We started of our business with 1. after a view years in business we got the option to buy the other 3 domains which have ranked quite well with certain keywords. As its quite allot of work maintaining all these websites with two languages, we where thinking of actually moving number 2, 3 ,4 all to number 1. All domains receive still some good rankings as well as daily hits. So we kinda like would like to keep the SEO Juice. Therefore we where researching for some time what would be the best practice todo so. For us there are two possible options We go trough all posts/pages on the domain 2,3,4 and copy the content over to domain 1. After thats done we create 301 redirects on the domains 2,3,4 linking them back to domain 1 posts/pages. We do do so by manually adding the 301's into the htaccess file, so we are able to delete the Wordpress installations. Our we just copy the Pages/Posts from the domains 2,3,4 to the domain 1 and then kill the 2,3,4 domains afterwords, and let google index these Pages/Posts on the new domain. This way we think we would loose the whole SEO Juice from the old domains. The reason we are asking this one here, we have been reading that this method could lead to red flags at google if we redirect to much Pages/Post back to Domain 1. Hopefully someone here can help us answer that question.

Different Domains on Same IP
Hello I'm just wondering how much of a difference it makes having links to a site from 2 separate domains that are on the same IP, compared to if the domains were on separate IPs? Thank you! Sam

Moving most (not all) content to another domain
Hi there, My company website has 3 main sections, two of those sections (each containing approx. 50 pages) will be moving to a separate website. The new website will also be owned by the same company. The new domain does not yet exist. I read this guide http://www.seomoz.org/blog/seo-guide-how-to-properly-move-domains , its very good, however it refers to moving the whole domain to a new URL. Are there any specific differences to consider in my situation for a partial move? Many thanks in advance! Nigel

What can we do to improve our site
Hi. I am hoping that some of you can help me with the in2town site www.in2town.co.uk The site is a news/lifestyle magazine site. The site is a cross between, huffington post, digital spy, female first and the sun newspaper. Basically the site is a news site as well as covering showbiz news, travel news, health news and advice etc What i would like is for people to look at the site and let me know what they feel i should do to improve the site to make it better for our readers and to gain more readership. I would also like to hear from people on how they find moving around the site as well as the speed of the site. At the moment the site is with an american hosting company and i am in the process of talking to UK hosting companies to move the site. The site is currently on a dedicated server. It would mean a lot if people could give me their advice on how to improve the site and make it a beter experience for our readers while at the same time being able to generate income with the site. Just a quick note, all content is original and we have a number of people who write for the site. many thanks
