what are the main reasons why a website cannot be accessed?
Some times when we type a website address in the browsers address bar ,we are not able to access it, we get a "Page Cannot be displayed" Error messege.
Generally the reason why we cannot access a website is because either the Web Server is down for maintenance and other reasons, or the address that we type in the address bar of browser is not correct? Can it be possible that the DNS Server is not able to resolve the web address into IP address? |

Could be many things:
- Webserver is down - Webserver does not have the headers configured correctly (if the host uses shared hosting), but this usually gives you an "Invalid Header" error - DNS is incorrect (use http://www.dnsstuff.com) to run tests - Domain is unregistered/expired - Incorrect spelling - The hosted site is stopped (but the webserver is running) These are just off the top of my head, there are tons of reasons a site can be down. |
