Every few months we get a call from a customer who is having trouble accessing their web site and emails. They have purchased their web hosting through us but registered their domain name elsewhere.

When you register a domain name, the email address you enter is used to remind you when the domain name comes up for renewal. If you change your email address then you don't receive the renewal emails and when the time comes, the domain name expires without warning.

Google is the search engine that more people turn to than any other. So to get Google to take more notice of your web site can improve the position of your site in the search results.

When someone does a search, the computers at Google uses the information it has gathered to display a list of web pages for that search. With many millions of web pages, Google's computer don't index every web page daily. Google works out if the web page has changed since the last time it was indexed. If it has not changed, Google won't bother re-indexing the web page for a number of weeks or months. However, web pages that change regularly are indexed on a daily or even more than once a day. Web sites from newspapers for example would be indexed by Google more than once a day.
