Just wondering if anyone else is having problems connecting to CorbinFisher.com tonight? I've tried on two different ISP connections but no luck so far. Hopefully its just a temporary issue.

Looks like DNS problems. When you query the authoritative nameserver for the domain (ns1.domainpeople.com) it returns
66.11.148.30
When you put that IP address in your browser, it brings up Corbin Fisher with no problem.
That IP block belongs to Canada Web Hosting. I know CF used to be with Sagonet, so perhaps they just changed ISPs, or maybe their load balancer took a dump.

Looking a bit odd. It loads now but it redirects you to:
http://66.11.148.33/CFSplash.aspx?ss=1
Not exatly pretty..

BTW, the load balancing they implemented a while back with mars.corbinfisher.com and earth.corbinfisher.com, etc. turned out to be as awful as I predicted (http://www.gaydemon.biz/showthread.php?p=42099). It's probably behind whatever is happening now, but when you google 'corbin fisher' (http://www.google.com/search?q=corbin+fisher&pws=0&hl=en) they have a measley 1 page that was last crawled in February. Most sites have at least two pages plus site links, and often pages on subdomains. In other words they've lost nearly all their organic traffic. The SERP for their brand name is now a complete mess - it's got tons of torrent sites and curiously almost no affiliates. I remember seeing big affiliates like Gay Demon and JUB in the first two pages of SERPs back then now I don't even see that anymore which I just don't understand - I get how they screwed up their own rankings but I don't understand what happened with the big reputable affiliates. It's truly a mess...
Bjorn - You used to rank for Corbin Fisher - would you share the trends in searches on their branded keywords? If you just look at new visits I think it will be most interesting since Google Analytics keeps crediting the original source of the traffic making it look like there's less of a problem than there is in cases like this.
