Cloudflare issue now resolved. All websites are loading normally.

We posted earlier today about a major issue with the third-party Cloudflare service, which stores DNS records for many websites.

They experienced an outage that caused sites to be unavailable for around three hours. Not all sites were offline for the full duration; some were down only briefly, and others weren’t affected at all.

As this was an external issue, we had to wait for Cloudflare to resolve it. The good news is that they confirmed everything was back to normal as of 2:42pm.

All our client websites are loading normally again from what we can see. If you’re still experiencing any issues, please reply here, email [email protected] or call us on 01738 700 006 and we’ll look into it right away.

You may also see mainstream press coverage of this global incident, as millions of websites were affected, including Twitter (X) and ChatGPT.

Global Cloudflare issue affecting many websites.

There is a major issue right now with the Cloudflare service that is affecting millions of websites, worldwide. Many of our Inspire websites are included in that. If you notice your website offline at the moment, that will be cause.

The issue is not related to the server the websites are hosted on at all. It is do with Cloudflare, where the DNS records for many domains are held. It's normally one of the most reliable services in the world and it's extremely unusual for it to go down like this.

We are monitoring the situation closely. Cloudflare is providing updates on https://www.cloudflarestatus.com too. The specific incident status link is https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/incidents/8gmgl950y3h7

We have to wait for them to resolve and update the issue as we have no control over it from our side. We'll keep you posted here with further updates as they become available.

If the outage lasts longer than one hour, we may move DNS records away from Cloudflare. This process takes time and does not update right away, which is why we are waiting to see how quickly Cloudflare resolves the issue.

We will keep you updated as soon as we have more information.

We're thrilled to announce that the new recipient of Inspire's WEST Scholarship at the University of the West of Scotland (UWS) has been chosen! Sam, from South Lanarkshire, started his journey into the world of business and entrepreneurship at the young age of 14, inspired by the book "Shoe Dog." His passion for understanding the broader impact of business on society is a testament to his forward-thinking mindset. 🌟

Sam is pursuing a BA in Business at UWS, with aspirations to start his own business and work in finance after graduation. He shares his thoughts:

“I like to look at the bigger picture, how organisations operate and how business plays such a huge role in society. Receiving a WEST Scholarship from Inspire Digital will allow me to focus more on my studies and help me to afford resources such as a laptop and books. Thank you to Inspire, I am really grateful for this opportunity.”

We're proud to support Sam and students like him who are driven to make a difference. By removing financial barriers, we're helping to pave the way for their success and enabling them to fully engage in their educational journey. 📚💼

🎉 We're thrilled to share a case study about our work developing the Bellmans Auctioneers website! 🌟

As Bellmans shifted their focus to online auctions, they partnered with us to revamp their website and ensure all operations were seamless, providing excellent user experience throughout their customers' journeys.

The key requirements for the project were to create a well-designed website that could run live auctions and handle high volumes of traffic without slowing or crashing. We worked closely with Bellmans' third-party partner, Snoofa, to ensure complete integration and consistency across the site.

Our team successfully delivered a website that showcases Bellmans as the high-end auctioneers they are. The client was extremely pleased with the finished product and signed up to an ongoing SEO package with us.

We're thrilled to continue working with Bellmans to improve their search visibility and boost traction for their auctions and sales. 🚀

The narratives of 𝐔𝐧𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐀𝐈’𝐬 𝐏𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚-𝐃𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲: 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐀𝐈 is 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 underscored the conference's vision—integrating AI to revolutionize marketing growth.
