SpeedySparrow, getting a 403


Hi there,

I wanted to take a look at the SpeedySparrow website because they were recommended to me for shared hosting. I tried first yesterday, but their site just returns a 403 to me... Today still the same.

http://speedysparrow.com/

Anyone knows what's up there?
Any other suggestions for real quality shared hosting (budget is stretchable) preferrably with additional services in Europe?

Thanks & regards
-A

It works for me, 403 is forbidden, perhaps they blocked you for whatever reason.

Have you tried to contact them before posting here?

Our website is working perfectly fine.

If you can PM me or Sean on your IP address we will be able to check if your IP is being blocked by our firewall and the reason for the block.

I am deeply sorry, I am on a dynamic IP and did not expect it to be blocked. I will reset my router to get a new IP and see whether it works then. If not, then I will contact you via PM.

It seems that it is an isolated problem on my IP range... :-(
Could someone post some screenshots until I gain access myself? ;-) Just kidding!

However, it would be nice if I could see the website too...

Also loading fine on my end as well.
Have you tried viewing it from a proxy?

I just thought I'd chime in with everyone else and say it's working here too!

P.S: Sean, don't forget to remove the RatePoint logo/link from your website footer.
