It's been a bumpy couple of years for me and my attempts to maintain a website and archive of my reviewing.
In May of 2016 that the 150M server died and took Splash Mountain with it, and didn't even give me the courtesy of an email or phone call. I spend a week calling and emailing the host, which probably bordered on harrassment. On July 1st, 2016 I launched my own site with my own domain name.
Fast forward to April of 2017 and my host, 0catch, decide to completely vanish, leaving me with a website that I'm able to access, but not make any updates for. My phone calls and emails go completely ignored. Including me going full on Jim Cornette and ending with a Thank You, Fuck You, Bye!
In mid July of 2017, I switch over to Hostwinds, who have been nothing less than superb! They have a very easy to use UI, 24/7 support, and are much cheaper than 0catch. I imagined that I'd be up half the night transferring over all of my files, but it took me 20 minutes!
Since the switch everything has run smooth. No downtime or tech issues, and according to the hostwinds stats section, my hits are as high as they've ever been.
The last year or so has been somewhat tumultous due to the move and various other things, and it's looking like that may be continuing over the next few months. But, my passion for this hobby of mine has always been constant, and I hope it always will.
