HI again everyone.
We have a house we let for holiday lets and a website for it.
https://www.trenthouselets.com We are in France and when I try to access the site through a Google search the site comes up in the little search window but is immediately replaced by this
http://www2.searchresultsdirect.com/parking.php4?domain=trenthouselets.com&registrar=348972&keyword=&eq=d98f795f7b57942cf59c3f17347bd51e67edda7e339c793555d57e8d8245c04526cf8e6c19d1b9441681e05c560396aaeaf165b512e073e1ce8b5e71c7bfe0f50e3104f3f0cd9a45ca8b6465668448b0b34df2b3f4eefdbf4861da7dc667aad3a143f8c17096ce9fbded37a8b854a366fe3229f6cc9f4e468428972bfc9e032e88d62715450c4016b13abe37c981af259698ed43edb4872cf44e6af5a694d33e06399d73ef2b40179e7baa98ed3b81f6f9341fd72c04084f371436984c8afdc3
Which takes you to a different site!!!
So what is going on, what can I do about it????

Has your domain subscription expired ?

RobTang

WHOIS Domain reports as EXPIRED (10 may 09). go back to your ORIGINAL registrar and renew it. http://www.whois.net/whois/trenthouselets.com

I cant remember what the procedure for .com domain expiration these days, but from what I remember the registrar should put it on hold for a certain number of days, during which time you can re-claim your domain.
They will probably charge you extra in addition to the renewal costs.

After the certain time your domain will go back into the open market, don't think this is a good idea to avoid any extra charges as people and companies pick up expired domains very quickly. you will then have to buy back your domain (at some silly cost) or loose it. they will hold onto it for years and years even if it generates no traffic for them whatsoever.

Looks to me that the company you registered it with has registered the domain for two years, but you have only paid for one, which ran out on 10th May 2009.
