    Puzzling website traffic.

    Thanks for the replies. Aegean: No, no link from a website. Traffic seems to be direct, though find that unbelieveable with the domain in question. Don't think it's a DDOS, either. I should have been clearer previously: the traffic has jumped compared to what it was, but still no great...

    Puzzling website traffic.

    I have a site which is getting some puzzling website traffic. All of a sudden traffic has jumped, from a base of near zero. The majority of the traffic is not from any search engine, and most visits last no more than the page landed on. Quite a few (though by no means all) are from China. I'm...

    .UK Announced

    Another MP to add to those that have made representations to Nominet: my local MP Clive Betts (Sheffield South-East), who wrote to them after meeting me in early December. Just received an eMail the Head of Secretariat (whatever that is) at Nominet. Very polite, simply reasserting present...

    .UK Announced

    Suspect one of the main problems with any campaign to try to stop or change this is that this is quite a technical area, and that those not directly involved in domains may not realise the full ramifications of the proposed changes. Just had a reply from my MP that was mildly sympathetic, but...

    .UK Announced

    For what it's worth I don't agree with point 1) either. I'd prefer to keep things as they are, with perhaps some of the security processes applied to present domains if they're absolutley necessary. However I think it's a good idea to ascertain the level of support for an EGM - hence my signing...

    .UK Announced

    Signed. Assuming we think the 5% threshold is reached, what's the process for calling for an EGM?

    .UK Announced

    There might be another way .co.uks etc. would be devalued by the release of .uk domains. If due to the checks that Nominet proposes they're perceived as inherently safer, wouldn't it make sense for search engines to - ceteris paribus - give them preference over those suddenly unsafe .co.uk...

    Anyone heard of app.net? New paid, ad-free (for now) rival to Twitter. Details here: https://join.app.net/ Global feed of alpha version here: https://alpha.app.net/ So, what do you all think? Does it have legs, or is it doomed to be an elitist walled garden? Should confess here that...
