Parkingpanel.com needs an upgrade ?

[dotnom]

I think Parkingpanel.com needs any upgrade.
Maybe another database or another/more servers

I'm having similar problems and thought it was a problem at my end.

I also can't say i'm impressed from their site in general
Their interface is very heavy without a reason

I liked namedrive's better but of course not their cpc rates
Not so pleasant experience so far...

Let's see. I will update the topic if i see anything interesting

Yah... I dont like this - and Customer Service is not answering the phone.

Hopefully they're getting everything fixed soon. I'm at work so I can't check in with Britt on AIM...if anyone here has him on AIM, I'd suggest sending him an IM. That's not to say he shouldn't answer the phone, but may as well try all avenues of contact. Definitely unfortunate timing with the discussion getting really heated about new parking programs vs. the old established.

Spoke with Britt - sites back up and functioning fine.

I spoke with Britt yesterday about some needed improvements; he described some features on their upcoming version that are great...and is looking into some other changes we discussed. Maybe it will happen sooner than later.

Yes it works ok, however don't you find their interface too heavy
When i select to display my domains per 100 the page almost freeze the browser

Did he explain what happened? I just shot him an email and said he should probably take some time and make a post or two here explaining what was up.

Yah, its not perfect, but it'll get there. So far, these guys are the most receptive to new ideas and concepts, and are trying to be as flexible as possible to grow. I love their attitude and I love the increase in Rev im generating.

Landing pages resolve very slow here.

I had explained to him an issue that a DNFer had pointed out about how their site is set up with their servers and that it was likely a cause of a lot of the lag and whatnot, and wouldn't be surprised if those issues snowballed and caused the crash. He said back then that he had informed their department that handles that stuff, but if their department is anything like the IT department in the company I work for in my day job, a snail moves a mile before they get even the tiniest things done it seems. Oh well, sometimes something like this can help them vs hurt them and get them to make everything more stable and make some necessary changes sooner rather than later. It did hurt to see the site down though.

He's supposed to call me in a little bit - If I hear from him I'll post the basics of our discussion here.

Same here.

However so far looks promising so let's not shot them at the head..... yet

(wish to fix ther interface, i have to open FF alone with Parkingpanel and work the net with Opera while i'm in PP)

UPDATE to the topic : The problem was a DDOS attach as Britt said

Now regarding the NS settings of parkingpanel :

With some registrars when i tried to use the
NS1.PARKINGPANEL.COM
NS2.PARKINGPANEL.COM
they didn't accept them because they said they are not valid

The DNS of parkingpanel.com is :
name class type data time to live
parkingpanel.com IN SOA server: ns1.parkingpanel.com.parkingpanel.com
parkingpanel.com IN A 64.195.235.56 86400s (1.00:00:00)
parkingpanel.com IN MX preference: 0 exchange: mail.parkingpanel.com
56.235.195.64.in-addr.arpa IN PTR www.parkingpanel.com 86400s (1.00:00:00)

DNS report says :
Missing nameservers 2 ERROR: One or more of the nameservers listed at the parent servers are not listed as NS records at your nameservers. The problem NS records are:
ns1.parkingpanel.com.
ns2.parkingpanel.com.

Did anyone notice the same thing ?
So far web redirection works but not the NS

ns1 & ns2.sedoparking.com for example didn't have the same problem

I think the most pressing issue is the slow server speed. My site takes almost 2-3 mins to load. Considering that the servers are in the US, I'm wondering how much time it would take for visitors from other countries. This would surely be affecting the CTR more than anything else. I hope Britt can look into this.
