I was interested in seeing what Cowells had to offer, the link from the sponsor link doesn't work, nor does trying to enter their website through Google?

Is anyone else having this trouble?

The website seems to be down at the moment, although the DNS seems to resolve
Is It Up seems to show the IP address OK https://isitup.org/www.cowells.com

www.cowells.com is up.

It took 54 ms for a 200 response code with an ip of 188.121.43.28.

Go back to check another site or save this as your default.


If you go directly to that IP address http://188.121.43.28/

you get

Web Server's Default Page

This page is generated by Parallels Plesk Panel, the leading hosting automation software. You see this page because there is no Web site at this address.


I presume they are re-loading a new site or something similar, as it's the time of night when that sort of thing tends to happen.
By the time you read this, it may well be working again.

Seems to be working, but it's fossilized, like Cowell's products. Mostly devoid of updates for 7 years (at least) and the FAQ page remains 'work in progress'.

Even longer than that; I checked the internet archive and the front page looked similar then.
The price list has though been updated.
I just spotted the jigsaw listed at £499 in 2010, and now comes in at £640, so some things do get an update. wink

I'd no idea how much they were, and I almost baulked at £25 when I bought mine second hand.
I only realised the make when I cleared the crud off the base when I got it home.
