z*i 发帖数: 58873 | 1 According to the Dallas Morning News, the team forgot to renew the
dallascowboys.com domain, and the site was left blank. The Cowboys'
marketing arm, led by one Jerry Jones, Jr., quickly renewed the domain,
but that process can take up to two days to go through, and for a website
to propagate on a domain -- even if it's been there before. The site is
up, but until Tuesday morning, there were people on Twitter reporting that
they could still see the "fail" page on certain browsers.
The most alarming aspect of the failure to renew a domain (especially one
of this magnitude -- only the NFL's official site is a more popular
league-approved portal) is the astonishing lack of attention to detail it
represents. Domains can be renewed for multiple years at a time, and
Network Solutions (or whomever you might establish a domain name with)
generally sends multiple email notices as the renewal date draws near to
the person listed as the primary website contact. It's a set-it-and-
forget-it process that takes about five minutes. |
