Up & Down & Away we go
So evidently the servers all of my sites were hosted on crashed and I had to change the IP’s to the nameservers. This happened Monday night after I came home from class and crashed so hence why my domain went down. Hopefully things will be back to normal. *crosses fingers* It seems I have really bad luck when it comes to servers lately and I am really regretting the switch but hopefully things stabilize. The one thing I cannot stand is my site being unstable and never knowing if it’s going to be up or down. That drives me completely bonkers.
I have a lot of important decisions to make financially very soon. My brother is selling his Tahoe and is willing to sell it to me for $5,000 less than what he wants for it since I am a student and getting married. So in the next few days I need to look up car insurance reviews and some quotes on the Tahoe. This will be my first vehicle purchase since my mom bought my current car. I’m really scared and worried because that’s a big deal. I also need to decide on what to do about my wedding. I am stressing about the cost of it and trying to make it look nice without spending an arm and a leg. I need to finalize what I’m going to do for food at the reception and how to do my flowers as well. I also need to decide on a photographer so I can get my engagement pictures made ASAP as well. I have so much on my plate but I can’t worry about that right now because I need a good night’s rest before my test tomorrow. It’s a geography test on a map of the Ottoman/Papal States during the middle ages or whatever. I suck at maps but I have studied my heart out. Hopefully I can score an A! So it’s time to head to bed. Please bare with my ever changing server state and hopefully my sites are up for good!


I feel your pain on the domain front hon! I was only with Holdfire for a grand total of 3 months (all of which I didn’t have to pay for since I was comped the money due to downtime) before I just couldn’t stand it anymore and cancelled my reseller. I ended up back with HostGator on a normal shared plan. I really miss having WHM and CPanel for all my domains, but it was a small price to pay to be with a company that doesn’t have downtime / crashes every week or so.
So in short: Its not your bad luck hun. Its your host.
But I hope things get better! It sucks having to always wonder “is my site up or down right now?
