Frequent visitors to my blog and network sites over the past few weeks probably noticed a lot of ‘downtime’. The recent issues with my server forced me to cancel my account with JetNet and find hosting elsewhere. After submitting several support tickets (which JetNet was very good about responding to), they determined my server was fine and the problem was at the datacenter. JetNet would then send tickets to the datacenter, and they would respond with an ‘everything seems fine on our end.” The problem was never getting solved, so I had to leave.

I believe JetNet though that the problem was at the datacenter. I would look at my server in WHM and everything really would be fine. O well, I guess. I am now running all of my smaller sites (like this one) on a VPS hosted with ServInt and I’m running one of my bigger sites on a dedicated ValueBox from Spry. Both these companies are outstanding, as I have used them before and been very pleased. And best of all, by leaving JetNet and signing up with ServInt and Spry, I’m saving $10/mo!

Moving websites can be a complete pain in the arse, especially if you have 20 of them like me. It took me a couple of days to get everything transferred and sorted out.

It always seems like I have server/hosting issues. I really hope this is the last of it for at least a year. I would love to be able to sit back and have my websites just always be up and running without me having to be so involved.

If you have any questions about the hosting companies I’ve worked with, simply shoot me an email or contact me on MSN. I’ve already referred one person to ServInt (I get 50% off my bill for 2 months for each person I refer).
