RankingLinux changes server (hosting)

Two days ago I was having trouble accessing RankingLinux.com ; in fact, I wrote an article about it yesterday 

It turns out RankingLinux has changed its hosting server. I haven't seen any announcements, posts, or anything to tell, but a few tests are enough to figure it out 

Previously, RankingLinux was hosted on the servers of redcoruna.com , with an IP address of 92.43.17.155 . Here is proof from a dig at rankinglinux.com :

;; ANSWER SECTION:
rankinglinux.com. 8468 IN A 92.43.17.155

;; AUTHORITY SECTION:

rankinglinux.com. 15838 IN NS ns1.redcoruna.com.
rankinglinux.com. 15838 IN NS ns2.redcoruna.com.

While it switched to HostMonster.com 2 or 3 days ago , and now has an IP address of 74.220.215.64 , here is the result of a host -v rankinglinux.com :

I don't know the reason for this change, but I personally consider HostMonster a better provider than RedCoruna.com 

Let's hope this change is for the better 

RankingLinux.com should now be working without problems for everyone ; however, if someone still cannot access it, they should just wait a while (hours or a few days) for their local DNS (the one from their ISP) to realize that RankingLinux is now on a different server with a different IP address.

Greetings 
