    TLD ??

    hello
    i have just aquired http://www.dropship.uk.to/ but when i go to add it to my sites in google i get this error
    General HTTP error Domain name not found
    i assume its to do with the .uk.to domain but why. Could someone point me in the direction of a tutorial or information on creating my own extention and having it recognised by the search engines e.g www.mysite.something.something

    Google does recognize the .uk.to TLD, and has numerous sites that use .to indexed. This can be confirmed by doing a search for site:uk.to and you will see a range of results. One possible issue is that you left of either the www, or the http://.

    EDIT: On rereading your post, are you trying to add the page to Google's index through the Add your site form, or are you trying to add it to something else?

    I tested it, going to the Add your site form and entered your domain exactly as it appeared in my browser window, and got a message "Your domain has been successfully added..."

    Are you guys sure they are configured to handle uk.to domain TLD's?

    I have added co.uk fine in the past, never tried uk.to.
