    Well, we can probably deal with this issue later.

    We should probably discuss the experiment.

    No, Bob. It goes directly to "page cannot be found"

    Bob,

    What is the IP address? I'll see if that resolves for me.

    What a bummer. It seems to work for everyone else in the world. You have two locations I believe. Ask some one to try it from the other location.

    Also if it goes to "page not found" that fast it sounds like that message is coming from your cache. Have you cleared your own cache?

    BTW - and I don't know if it's for this thread or not...

    I have been adding loads of links with my KW1KW2 into my site and it's made no difference to my rankings.

    Just before I did this I had been setting up links with Company name KW1KW2(plural) and this moved me up.

    I had 14 links with writing a KW1KW2 and I shot up 27 places to#18

    So I wonder if just KW1KW2 is working (I have had a look at all my competitors above me (I'm 6th) and they've hardly got any pure KW1KW2 links pointing at them at all.

    I've changed my sig here and in other places so I'll let you know

    Food for thought

    Yes, I tried clearing my cache a few times already.

    Nobody is at my warehouse at this time, so there is nobody else around here to test it.

    I just tried your page on a third computer (a Mac) and I get the same message.

    Granted, these computers are all networked and are accessing the internet through the same connection.

    Sorry for the delay!

    I tried the ip and got the following...
    Not Found
    The requested URL / was not found on this server.

    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

    I should have thought of it before.There is something unique about our Apache setup that prevents you from reaching a site on our server via an IP.

    So all you guys who are trying the IP try the URL instead http://www.online-poker-rooms.nu.

    I'm going lunch with a friend. Won't be too long. Back in an hour.

    Foxy, You may be able to view that page BECAUSE it is in your cache.

    Have you tried clearing your cache and trying again?
