Step-by-step instructions
- Step 01
Test your domain from another browser/network to rule out a local cache or connection issue.
- Step 02
Try the temporary hosting URL if your provider offers one.
- Step 03
Identify the error type: DNS resolution, connection refused, SSL warning, HTTP 404, 5xx or missing content.
- Step 04
Check the host's service status and deployment/uptime logs.
- Step 05
Inspect recent changes: domain expiry, DNS edits, deploys, plugins, PHP settings or certificate renewals.
- Step 06
Roll back the last risky change when a safe rollback is available and you have backups.
- Step 07
Contact provider support with exact URL, time, error message and steps you've already tried.
Before you finish: important checks
- Avoid changing DNS as the first response to a host-side 500 error.
Common problems and fixes
- 5xx after plugin update? Check server error logs and recovery mode.
- NXDOMAIN? Check nameservers and domain status.
