Blog and godaddy loading problem "

    I tried to visit my wordpress blogs since last night, but it always failed to open my wordpress blogs. So does godaddy. Since the other site like yahoo are working fine, I decided to wait a while and try again later.
    12 hours later, I try to visit my blog and godaddy again, they still can't be open. The msg shows "safari can't open-help-anchor:ibrw1071" because Mac OS X doesn't recognize internet addresses starting with "open-help-anchor:" Since I can't contact godaddy by phone since I am traveling in Asian right now, I try to ask the question through its tech help forum. However, it shows the same msg when I try to visit Godaddy!


    I am not sure is it the problem from my end or go godaddy hosting. Can anyone help me?
    Can anyone check godaddy hosting or my blogs to see if it works from the U.S.A.? (now I am traveling in Asian) one is my blog from my Signature area anyone is brand new still working on "1jutebag"
    Has any one faced the same problem before and how did you solve it?


    Please help me! Thank you very much!

    Note: I am not sure if this info helps...but it happens after I updated mac software the first time after I arrive China.

    Thank you very much, Sensei.Design...so that means something wrong with my end. This is very strange. I can not only open yahoo, but also this forum. but I can visit godaddy. I saw the apple logo on your image, so I assume you use apple as well. Have you ever faced the same problem with safari?

    Your blog times out from Beijing. It displays in Shanghai and Yunnan province.

    That's not making sense...My site used to loads fast before. The first city I visit in China was Beijing and my blog worked fine then. Now I am in Yiwu but it only working in certain area in China. Is that means it's not the problem of my laptop? I am so lost.

    That actually makes sens, keep in mind your site is hosted in AZ, China is a long way from AZ, so it wouldn't surprise that your site would be inaccessible in some areas of China.

    Not only that, but as Ray mentioned, the Great Firewall of China does some serious blocking of sites. There are a lot of sites (particularly from the US) that never make it into China.

    That's the connect problem ab' blogspot and godaddy
    Because blogger (blogspot) had prevent from some Asian countries.
    Final, TIPS to fix this solution is connect to your godaddy account and update DNS.
    Here's how:

    Thank you for you help, k3lvinmitnick.

    I am able to view my godaddy account now. However, the VPN service seen very unstable and I still can't visit blogs that host by blogspot and wordpress (though the independent wordpress blog works now). I guess I will just have to wait...
