We Have Been Evicted.

Hi folks, thanks for the influx of care packages. We were down for the past 2 days due to our webhost terminating our account without notice and 2 months prematurely from the expiry of our account. We shall not elaborate any further at this point as nerves are frayed and we’re in a very delicate situation since the webhost has given 5 days for us to find a new webhost. Yes, we got served the eviction order.
We have not backed up our site when the site disappeared into thin air, and you can imagine the horror that was written on all our morning faces, dreading the imminent fate that this blog was gone for good and we had to start from scratch.
Thankfully, they have not trashed the site, and with their gracious provision of a 5-day window, we’re having the site backed up now.
We’re again on the hunt for a good webhost. Our past and current research show that no one comes close to our current one which provides 5.1GB of webspace with 330GB of monthly bandwidth at $7.50 per month. This site requires that amount of bandwidth and unfortunately most providers will only support that under dedicated servers, which we can ill-afford with our humble teeny weeny budget.
Whenever we come across pretty attractive ones they do not allow adult content. Argh.
If you have any good suggestions that you think might suit our needs (we’re willing to pay a bit more in exchange for a peace of mind and health), please get in touch as soon as possible so we can look at a few more options before deciding where we will plant our roots.
Migration is going to be monumental due to the size of the site, so we wanna be sure the next one is reliable and cost effective at the same time.
Thanks goes out to Long Tran, Anthony, David Snyder and David Szostek for your help. We feel loved!
Wish us luck, babes.
