It may be that which I read. Buyer beware!serowe wrote:Whether you register your domain name and host it through the same company is purely a personal choice - there is nothing sinister about doing this PROVIDED you read the fine print.
There are some companies that will sell you very cheap domain registrations and hosting and it is only when you decide to move the hosting elsewhere that you get around to reading the fine print that states that the registration company/hoster actually own the domain name and not you.

'It's a jungle out there' is the title of the theme music of 'Underbelly' an Aussie TV mini series

That's OK, then--I thought it might have been rude.

It's actually the word(s) from a song used as a theme.

Despite my site being hosted by Dreamhost (oh the irony!!) I was not affected by their shutdown.
Whilst I'm very thankful I am a bit mystified why I wasn't affected. If you can throw some light on my situation I'd be very grateful. Am I living on borrowed time?
Your site was never on DreamHost and you are still on my own server space -- you were never on the DreamHost offering so you were not affected. I still have six live sites from my original setup.
Also, re:domains -- I may have registered a domain on your behlaf but it is always yours and you are free to move it around as you please. (just to clear that up).

Thanks for clearing things up David. I've also replied privately.
