Link to SGL on my site

[sanmatt]

We have knocked together a fun little site for our gazing group. Is it ok to link to SGL on it? I have seen SGL links on other people's personal pages so I'm guessing it's ok?

A work in progress: http://www.witney-astro.co.cc/index.php

If not, please let me know and I will remove it.

Far as i know..............its fine to link to SGL.

Nice site so far. Needs adding to obviously.

I have a few sites (non astronomy) and was thinking of setting up a localised astronomy site for people in my area, the only other local group site never gets updated.

Uhmmm

Nod32 blocked access - are you hosting on some free webserver or something similar ?

[Tribal-Wolf]

over enthusiastic anti virus lol

[Beulah]

No problem on my system.

[Kai]

Out of courtesy i would ask one of the Admins if its ok

Don't think so !

Google search blocks 11 million .co.cc websites to fight malware - TechSpot News

Seems that a lot of AV companies added the sub domains to their list of harmful sites, with an "opt out" submission to those who felt their sites should not be on the exemption list.

The other issue is that as Google have deleted all .cc domains off their directory, the OP web site will not show up in any searches.

Love the link 'The.Witney.Astronomical.Telescope.Society. goes live' - very good! Like the web site too - an excellent start.

Sorry for the delay gang, just got back from Sainsbos and in dire need of curry now. I shall answer you all properly when my tum is steamingly full.

*burp*

Yeah its a free and easy site, Korean or something, but if its known to be spammy or something then I'll just buy a proper domain and host it elsewhere.

I have also PM'd the admin boss to ask. I'm guessing its fine as I have seen plenty of poeple link to SGL on their personal astro sites, I can't see mine as being any different?

Lots more to add for sure yes, want to get a gallery up of Witney Astro's images. And maybe some beginner's info. I dont know really but thought it might be nice.

Hi Malcolm,

Am using ESET version 5.

Been an ESET user for many years, primarily because their software has never been as much of a "resource hog" as Norton or as "blinking annoying" as McAfee.

So far so good.

I posted this question for my site a while back and the mods said it is fine so I presume it is still the same

[garethmob]

URL's arnt that much sam, iv bought mine for £2.99 for 2 years on LCN.com but one would need a hoster then for the site i do think LCN is reasonable, otherwise i bet names.co would be pretty good too (as they are one of the big url name companys nice site though:)

[sanmatt]

Yup Gareth, I've seen a co.uk for £6 for 2 years. I shall do that then ask my nephew to host it or buy some cheap hosting.

San.

Hi Sandra, need any help or advice, give me a shout. Have a look at our local website: Swindon Stargazers

[sanmatt]

Lovely, thanks so much

[Nillchill]

San, take a look at these

Cheap Web Hosting Services. Free PHP Website Hosting By UK Company

just costs 12.99 for setting up and the hosting is free there after, also they can handle your domain registration also

The acronym just made me drop my Easter Egg, brilliant! Also if you need any web help you can drop me a message if you like I'm a web designer
