Well then why is it that when ever I goto my websites through IP it comes up when it says it down when I goto the domain? Its complicated, but my website is almost always down, but the web server itself isn't down. Could it be that the host has all domains pointed to one domain that uses a system or some type of software that then directs it to the address given by the user? I'm not sure what it is, but its getting on my nerves.


Probably your web host's nameservers then. See, the domain points to a nameserver that your web host provides, which resolves the domain into an IP url. The reason is so that web hosts can use the same IP for multiple clients with different domains.
Thats basically what I ment by domain host... but what ever. Anyway...

So heres to final plan, not sure when its going to be done, but:
SurpassHosting (+1 point for kllr, haha)
and GoDaddy.com for domain(cheaper then my current ^^,)

But the people you buy the domain from DON'T provide that service, it is the people you buy your web host from - that was my point. You were blaming the wrong people Razz
Oh ok. Its odd that both on Alex's server and Canaca's server it happened. I canceled Canaca service because I figured it was their shitty nameservers, but then I kind of felt that maybe there was another reason for it...
