    I have noticed recently that the number of links siteexplorer displays fluctuates a lot, going down, back up, and then down again.

    Which site are you trying to add?

    I saw this error when I was adding my new .asia domain.

    It does show you that if you are trying to add asia domain indeed. Its because, most probably they havent incorporated that yet with their system. Also it can be a simple problem with the DNS server of your hosting.

    Sometimes, doing a practice of adding or not adding the www before a website might be the cause for the fluctuations.
