Sign up with GoogleAfter receiving a not so useful "Your site suck" anonymous message via my web feedback form. I decided to do some changes to my website.
So to my horror I found that when I type in my url I still get my old home page. That would have still been fine, but I found that not all the pages are sitting on the proxy and now it seem as if many of the links on my old site is broken.
So besides not looking so good, (I admit I'm not an experienced web developer and the old site, well did suck ) it also look very much like an abandent non functioning site.
Any ideas how long it will take for TelSCUM's D.. proxy to fetch the new pages off my site? Any thing I could do to force the proxy to fetch the new pages? I've added expire meta tags and even some code I read about in htaccess to hopefully prevent this from happening in the future. But the pages that Telkom is sitting on, does not contain that code. I always thought that proxy's was suppose to check the date of files with the original server before serving the cached file, EVERY TIME.
When I use www.aalwyne.co.za? then I get the new site. I also thought that this would make the proxy realize that the site has changed, but no. Anything else I could do besides just wait it out?
Could you guys out there with Telkom accounts perhaps check if you get the old site or the new one when you use www.aalwyne.co.za. The new site have a menu listing to the left of the page.
The strange thing is when I type in only aalwyne.co.za then I get the new site right away. But all my pamphlets and stuff has it listed as www.aalwyne.co.za and the average internet user won't stick ?'s all over the place to make sure they get the latest page loaded.
Thanks and sory for the rant, but for the first time I also feel like joining the mob and whack Telkom over the head.
PS. I've started making changes to my site at the beginning of last week and the page the proxy deliver is prior to that.
