OK it's all my fault!! I procrastinate way too much! I leave things until the last minute, I've done it dozens of times. I'm sure there are a lot of people that do that as well. But I do it to myself. I get some overwhelmed with things to do, that I forget about the deadline to some and then I feel like I'm running around like a chicken without a head! I really need to prioritise and use my time wisely or this will continue to happen. Make lists perhaps? That could be a solution. If I set a list of things to do for certain days, I can achieve more. For instance, today I need to move 2 of my websites to new servers. I have done a lot of the backing up of databases, so I have that part covered. It's the content that I'm trying to move, and my old host is being a pain in the a$$ and it's really annoying me. So while I go in between Continue Reading
Service Interruption Due To Server Move
After about 7 years with Steadfast, they sold the shared hosting accounts over to Fluid Hosting, we weren't really aware of it, until they had already decided to sell, the accounts we're moved with no disruption, which was great, but it was time to move hosts. They are top notch!! So why am I moving? Well they are so expensive lol. Sorry but it's a fact, we are all in a financial crisis which is why I find that at this stage opting for Pay monthly websites will be much better for the company as it is cost-effective and let's change anything as per my wish. Ok I won't exaggerate about the crisis, but inflation and all, I just can't afford those prices. So instead I am moving to Web Hosting Buzz, I know it's a silly name hey? But they are fantastic, I went in with 2 others and bought a reseller, I could host all my websites there, which is Continue Reading
Less Than An Amateur
I finally got my photography website up, I just have a partial gallery, I need to gather my photos, well at least the ones I want to use. But I'm excited about it. You can find that at lenscapture, isn't that a great name for a photogrphy website? Well I am no professional by any means. I love to take photos, and sometimes, I get some wicked cool photos, and sometimes I don't, you can do so much with a little digital, actually what I need to do, is learn how to use it better. I'm sure if I learned how to use it better, I can get some pretty awesome photos. So if anyone has any suggestions maybe classes online, that would be a great tip. Like I mentioned it's new, and I only have a partial gallery, but hopefully it will fill up over time. Oh yeah, finally got the reseller all set up, and happy to have moved my collective thislove.nu, Continue Reading
In 5 Months
Looks like there is a change of plan. My hosting here doesn't end until May 2012, so I am going to finish out my time here, and then move. The hosting here has been exceptional. I have never had any problems, and if I did, they were quick to take care of the problem. So that makes me really happy. But I will wait it out until the end of April, and then transfer. No point in letting this go to waste, since it's been paid up for a year. I'm happy to see the new reseller domain is up. I won't be selling hosting, that's now why we got it, but it has to be a mutual decision, since it was 3 parties involved. So for now we are just using for ourselves. Of course if family or friends needed some hosting, we probably would do it, but again, it's not only my decision its all 3 of us. I think we are going to be happy here. On to other things.

Warmer Days Ahead
I think winter will be over soon. We are suppose to have some spring weather coming, so that will be something nice to look forward to. One of my websites was down for awhile or maybe most of the day yesterday. There was some problems with my usage, I'm being told that my website is using up a lot of resources, I'm also told that it's probably one or more of my wordpress plugins, so I need to find out which ones take up the most, and I will have to probably stop using it or them. I know it sucks, but with my personal site, my hosting plan is a small one, and I am in no position to upgrade at all. So I am going to try to do this, a few plugins shouldn't make a difference. Anyway so now I need to go through my plugins see what I really want to keep and what is not taking up the resources so I'm not suspended again lol. I know it's not Continue Reading
