Sorry guys. Terrible hosting problems today. The usual poor service just hit rock bottom…. we will be moving the site ASAP.

The site still isn’t working correctly after 13 hours. Even on a ‘good’ day it takes me twice as long to get things done here because it’s so slow. There’s no excuse for this level of crap service.
I emailed Zana a while ago when you had that issue with the ‘Categories’ section explaining that blue host is not a real host and not suitable for any kind of web site that expects to get any real traffic.
If you read a little about ‘shared hosting’ you can see why it isn’t suitable.
If you would like, shoot me an email and I can help you find a decent host based on your budget and the amount of traffic you get!
I’m being kind when I say Blue Host sucks. I’ve wasted hours and hours trying to open our site and publish posts. Just today it’s taken 5 hours to publish this gem of a post. The tool bar still doesn’t load and so I can’t publish a regular post. So, I thought I’d send a little message to Blue Host, whose been jerking us around for months. Of course there will always be a certain amount of downtime for maintenance, but our site cuts on and off every day. The clear lesson is don’t use Blue Host for your hosting service.

That made me laugh, thanks. To me it seems the mortgage industry is the ‘winner’.
I got the Economizer coloring contest lined up soon. Spread the word. We wants some kids involved. Maximum age is 13.
I often behave as though I’m under 13. Does that count? ;)
I hope you get a bunch of awesome pictures to stick on the front of the naturalbuildingblog fridge!
Glad I could bring a smile to your face on such a “sucky” day.

Thanks, Ian. I believe you. Let’s hope Zana has time to make the change. We’ve agreed to change and have talked about it for weeks.
