Have you typed in our old website domain name, and the error 404 has shown up last May 2023?
This was due to the domain needing to be renewed on time.
Even though we have been permitted or given access to manage the website account ourselves to edit the contents, unfortunately, we do not have total control of our previous website as we asked someone to create our website for us using HTML management software around May 2020.
The one considered account owner was the person we paid to create the website for us, Mikechael of Lenolm (not an actual company name) He also made several websites of other Thai massage businesses around Auckland, so we asked for his services during the mid-2020s.
It was easy to communicate with Mickecheal of Lenolm in the past few years and when we needed to renew our domain license. But last May 2023, Lenom was hard to contact or pretend to. Unfortunately, We cannot renew the domain license ourselves because the HTML management company (Wix) does not consider us the account owner. That was a desperate moment as we depend on online bookings but do not have a running website.
As a solution, we created our new account and a website overnight, which is under our complete control without any third party. Unlike in 2020, we learned to create a website using HTML management tools.
We are curious if Lenolm just played busy and hard to contact, so we could not renew our domain and be down online for longer period of time, as he may be favoring other Thai clients with similar business with us. Fortunately, we already know how to create our own and are ready for this incident. Aside from this, Mikechael K. also plagiarized our blog post, changed some wordings a little bit and used it for the social media boost post for other similar business located in Mt Eden in which website Lenorm manages. It is not about spawning negativity but creating awareness among other business owners or anyone planning to develop a website to know whom they will ask to create a website and what could go wrong if they have biases towards other business operators which is also their client, leave the website services business or for any reason and mostly, we have to explain why we changed our domain. Get a website developer who is totally independent of any favors and biases towards other similar businesses whom they also manages their websites and this is mostly applicable for any Thai Massage or Thai restaurant businesses with a Thai website developer who also does a website for other similar business such as Mikechael of Lenorm like what if someday, the business operator have to renew the domain silence but the website developer guy refuses to cooperate or pretends to hard to contact keeping the business operator he favors less to have an offline website which is frustrating. It is like asking and paying a contractor to build a house, but the contractor has their name in the papers and the house's title, giving you the spare keys to enter the home you owned but not in the documents and the title.
As of May 2023, Khunchai Thai Massage and Spa is now using www.khunchaithaimassage.co.nz . It is longer than the previous domain.
What is a domain? In networking, the domain is similar to your home or posting address, which the internet user enters to visit your site.
Why do we use an HTML management tool like Wix rather than coding on our website? Because it will be easier to manage and make changes instantly. We do not need that website complication of amazondotcom or a fortune 100 company for our small business. Customers are not website connoisseurs as long as we provide honest and good service. We are all right.
