I Have Email Again!
If you emailed me in the last two weeks and haven’t gotten a response, I apologize profusely, because I didn’t get it. I had to switch over to my gmail account because my domain email was down.
If you tried to reach me and haven’t gotten a response, please, email me again and I will do my level best to respond with all due haste.
My (now former) hosting company was great when I first signed on with them a number of years ago. For the last 6 months or so, however, service has been going downhill.
This culminated in my email going totally down about two weeks ago after sporadic periods of uptime for about a week before that as well as their servers getting hacked (again), causing my site to be defaced.
To make matters worse, they were basically ignoring any and all trouble reports, so I was stuck without my main email, which I had been using up to that point during my job search.
Not exactly the best time for your email to take a dive.
About a week ago, I changed hosting providers, and taking the advice of Jeff Blankenberg, went with Crystal Tech.
Over that week, I’ve made more phone calls and written more emails to the two companies in question than I care to think about. The transfer process was, to say the least, not exactly smooth, but it’s finally over (I hope). On the upside, I can say that Crystal Tech’s phone support is both polite and helpful, which is always nice.
Hopefully their service is just as good as their support and their data center doesn’t explode.
