Still no good for me on my connection here.

The page loads if I use other DNS resolvers though...

Weird!

I also now can't access it via Edge, but can view it fine on Opera (on my phone).

The only thing I've done in the meantime (since being able to access it via Edge) is to edit a bit of content on the website, and make it visible to search engines (a setting in Strikingly). That's all I've done, Tim, I promise!

Can now access it again from Edge; I flushed the Windows DNS cache in the meantime, but not sure if this made a difference?

@yitz - are you still having the same problem? Ta for confirming.

Still no go for me after flushing DNS cache.

I think we are the minority who it is not (intermittently) working for. I can get to it from other internet connections fine, just not this one.

I'm thinking it's DNS related, possibly due to caching even though there's a small TTL. Could be with routers or a particular ISP. I suspect given a day or so problems will clear up, but I can't be 100% sure. I've double checked settings and they seem fine.

It could be a problem with the host, strikingly, or Akami, but probably not.

It's working for me now.

For the record Akamai Reference #9. errors are to do with DNS and as above and considering the time frame probably due to stale/cached records.

That was my assumption, as everything looked ok. I'll look at that forwarding for you before long @jonathan18, got a bit of greenhouse work to do first :)
