Domain doh!

Free whitepaper – Enabling Datacenter and Cloud Service Management for Mid-Tier Enterprises

Halfords.com is mostly unavailable today thanks to "a temporary administrative issue in our domain name renewal process".

Visitors to the site this morning - including a vast number of Register readers - were met with a holding page for Network Solutions and an invitation to renew the domain. In the meantime the page contains links to various alternative car-related sites.

Halfords said it the process was now complete and it expected the site to be available soon. It apologised to customers for any inconvenience. ®
