why is DP online 24/7 ?

    I'm wondering how come DP is always online 24/7 specially during DNS propagation time on my ISP (happening every 24 hours and happening now) when i can't reach any site on the internet except DP (and some of my sites with dedicated IP :D )

    Is there something technical that makes sites always reachable ?

    i m also seeing the same thing here.when my internet is down i can open DP easily but other sites can't

    shown is investing lots of $$$$ to keep DP running all the time.
    i think Server on which DP is hosted gives high bandwidth for upload download the data.

    i don't understand your point!!
    every site in online 24/7, all my sites are, unless you have some problems, they are online.
    i don't know the technical reasons that you give, but then most sites are online always.:)

    "8everything" got my point now but still it's strange thing that other sites don't work for me but DP does

    Also now i realized some webmasters here really need some free lessons about "DNS" and "DNS propagation" Wikipedia ?

    DP was actually unreachable for me for a couple hours last week, but that's the only downtime I've ever experienced with the site, even before I signed up :)

    Your ISP is screwed up!!! If a site doesn't have any nameserver changes, nothing should go wrong, hince no one else has trouble, cause we are all on good ISPs. :D And even changing nameservers shouldn't take da site down, but only change from old to new server on what da visitors get...unless you mess up in da change!!!

    its always up, you can also say that "DP never sleeps" I never see a single time when the online visitor count of Dp showed me less then 1000 visitors.
