So I’ve moved my personal accounts over to a new host. I’m very unhappy with my current hosting situation and as of right now would just prefer to mark it down as a loss. I had to fight to get my database released to me because for some strange reason it magically was deleted off of the server, even though I hadn’t touched it in days. I was charged $15 to restore the back up and given an attitude about it the whole way. So I went to Sean and basically said “move over, I’m coming to dreamhost”. Now, I personally hate this host, but there isn’t any reports of them deleting databases and charging you to restore them.
So after extracting just my comments/posts/categories – I installed a clean wp installation under a dreamhost account and now I’m back to where I need to be. All old plugins are gone, the only thing left is the barebones of just the important stuff. I could care less about stats or anything else considering I’m never getting my PR4 back and that’s something I’ve learned to except.
Its a good post. and I am really glad you got all back working for you….Last year I had my site hosted in Ireland, with a web hosting company there, but due to the server problems, I needed to shift all my site from their server to a new server….their server crashes every-week and people keep telling me they cannot pay, do online coach booking, cannot see gallery and so on.
So, shifting site from the old server to new server without server to server transfer, it was kind of pain…..I also want to tell you, because of their hosting problems, many of our keywords like, coach hire, minibus hire, limo hire and airport pickup and airport transfer lose rankings in Google.
But now I am satisfied with the current hosting.
Anyway, Blessed Xmas and Happy new year, and do post some entries regarding transportation and travel and tours too
Thanks

Hi Kirssy,
As a matter of fact I have/had been going the same issues, but now I am hosting my site on my own designed server and it really works fine now. No issues at all. You should too.
