Domain Reclaim

Radio Lutterworth press release week commencing 16th March 2009

The following statement was provided for the local media

Radio Lutterworth Reclaims Domain – the return of WWW.RADIOLUTTERWORTH.CO.UK

Although Radio Lutterworth was last on air in September 2008 there has been a lot of work going on behind the scenes in advance of another proposed 28 day RSL broadcast in 2009.

This is currently planned to coincide again with Lutterworth’s Feast Week celebrations during August 2009.

 Unfortunately, in November last year, Radio Lutterworth was subject to a case of “Web Theft”.

The web site domains for the Radio Station were hi-jacked, stolen, and shut down which withheld content from the team meaning that supporters seeking to access information relating to Radio Lutterworth over the internet were unable to do so.

This type of crime is all too common in the current technological age, but the Radio Lutterworth team were able to implement a quick response, reconstituting the site on a new domain (radiolutterworth.webs.com) and paying for an advertisement that would enable visitors to find the new location via a web search within Google.

Not only had the web site content been shut off but the owner’s (Joe) contact details had also been changed to a third party address.

By working with the Domain registrar, station manager Joe Dodson was finally able to confirm legal ownership toward the end of February. This has since enabled the “webmaster” to sort out suitable hosting and see Radio Lutterworth go LIVE again on the internet.

For further information about booking the Radio Lutterworth team for your events, you can email joe@radiolutterworth.org.

If you are interested in sponsoring part of Radio Lutterworth or advertising through the website, please contact ian@radiolutterworth.org.  

The only official Radio Lutterworth website exists at www.radiolutterworth.co.uk
It is important that people do not get misled by any other websites that have not been entered directly through our site, and are not endorsed by Radio Lutterworth.

 On the official site, if you click on the "Home" link you will always return to -

 http://radiolutterworth.co.uk/index.htm

The management team of Radio Lutterworth actually feel very sorry for those people who might seek to work against a community focussed project, but accept that sometimes that provides even more incentive to operate in an open, honest and inclusive manner.
