Web sadness :(
So, it’s happening again. I should have made the move sooner, but got lazy and didn’t want to do it. My reseller account rehosting company - vizaweb - is down for the count again. It’s been 2 days. Last time they blacked out like this, they gave me a heavy discount to stay with them, so I stayed thinking that things would be better. For a majority of the year they were (with minor hiccups here or there). I stayed mostly because of my job and income situation. I would have had to pay more and spend even more time moving everything and getting situated and it just wasn’t worth it. A year later, I know a lot more involving web stuff, have a better job, and am better off financially. And now I might be screwed.
What stinks even more is that my “yearly subscription” with them is set to run out today and re-new. I tried to change my CC info so it wouldn’t auto-renew, but… their site has been down for 2 days.
So here is to hoping they at least come back up so I can start re-backing everything and making the manual move. I have never done the process before and I’m sure it sucks hardcore. I wish I was on an M2J level of being consistant on backing things up and fluent in restoring them. I know he’s guru-like when it comes to PC’s at least. I’m sure I have almost all the files I need to make the moves now (except for up-to-date databases). It might even be great for me if they never come back seeing it could give me credibility to start some things from scratch and light a fire under me. Yet. I don’t want that fire lit. I’d rather get my files back.

Vizaweb is a heel!
