Godaddy.com down?

[bankajac]

Is Godaddy down? Does this happen often? I have been using them for a few years and don't remember this happening.

[Harrison H.]

They are having DNS issues right now. We host our domain's DNS with them and our sites are not reachable.

[bankajac]

Cannot ping.

My business!!! No!! **** Godaddy!!

[bankajac]

What's wrong with Godaddy other than the SOPA thing?

Them having issues with dns they host is not the same thing as the godaddy.com website being down.

What is your domain, and can look to see if it resolves. PM if you don't want it public - but godaddy is clearly up

Mine is down too, slightly annoying as I wasn't able to get onto my VPN, lucky I wrote the IP of my server down.

_{They are definitely down.}

[+BudMan MVC]

They are definitely NOT DOWN ;)

And check your PM, I queried your domain just fine - from the owning nameservers run by godaddy.

Anyone else having the same issues I am. Website and DNS down?

I just sent you a pm, checked from multiple regions in NA. San Jose, Chicago, Jax FL, I can bounce off pretty much any region on the globe you would like EU, Asia, South America, India, Australia -- have not tested them all, but clearly is an isolated issue since you can see the website and I did a query directly to their name servers for your domain.

I don't have a connection currently in Vegas area, but new customer has a DC there - so when that vpn is online in a couple of days I could test directly from there ;)

Status Alert: Hey, all. We're aware of the trouble people are having with our site. We're working on it.

Not completely isolated.

[bankajac]

Can you try Vegas. Above looks like someone in Florida is having issues.

[nominak]

I tried to ping godaddy.com.. Keep getting request timed out

[bankajac]

Just saw on CNBC that it is down. Anonymous claiming responsibility.

[+BudMan MVC]

Clearly is not DOWN ;) since again I showed you their website and a query for your domain - under a DDOS??? Maybe that could cause all kinds of issues, but not "down" ;)

Do you actually use them for hosting of your site, or just dns of your domain?

GoDaddy's services are clearly having issues. We get it, their site isn't "down", but their DNS is having problems. I can't get to my site via the domain name I purchased through them, nor can anyone else.

[bankajac]

Just DNS.

_{I can't even get to their site.}

[+BudMan MVC]

I just PM'd bankajac on this - this is why you don't just have your nameservers with 1 service. Host your dns on multiple services on multiple networks. This way even if one of the services comes under a DOS, you can still resolve your records from the ones that are not.

They aren't loading for me, but I do concur that if they are having troubles, then surely they are working on it. :)
