Bad Bits bit the dust
OK, it’s official. Bad Bits is history for the time being. The host, webmasters.com has said they will not reinstate the domain hosting unless I remove WordPress, which is what makes it run. So, I canceled service with them.
I’m now in the process of trying to find another host at a reasonable price that will allow the content I had there. Maybe I’m wrong, but I don’t see how a site that generates 7,000 – 8,000 hits a day (average) with spikes to 20,000, can’t run on a shared server. Bits & Pieces runs on a shared server and it gets more than 30,000 hits a day – every day. I’m using the same software and mostly the same plugins on both sites.
I’m not giving up on this. ( I had a busy weekend and had no spare time to really work on this, but things are clearing up now.) I may not be able to use the Bad Bits name, (because I canceled the service without unlocking the name) but I’m working in the problem.
Stay tuned….
