Okay, we seem to be happily up and running on NSDesign.
The loading speed is incredibly fast now compared to the way it was on Thinkhost. So far so good, and a huge sigh of relief.

Changing Hosting Providers
I’m moving this site away from Thinkhost. My next post will be made from a real hosting provider.
I will keep my static sites on Thinkhost for now, since I’m still stuck with another 18 months of “service” from them, but no more Wordpress on Thinkhost.
I reckon that’s gonna save the NHS a lot of money because my blood pressure should go down a bit now.
Thinkhost issues again
This site’s been down three times within the past 24 hours. I’m beginning to wonder if I’ve bought a hosting package or a virtual yo-yo.
Good thing I’m not trying to run a business site on it. I wouldn’t dare, with this kind of “reliability.”
So it isn’t just this site – Thinkhost outages
I have hosting with Thinkhost. I thought I was doing the right thing by going with a provider that advertised “green” hosting and expounded upon their progressive agenda. But this site has been up and down since I started it a few days ago. I couldn’t access it at all for several hours last night. And I had something scathingly brilliant to blog about, too. Of course, now I can’t remember what it was.
Anyway, I think it’s a database problem. I have static sites with Thinkhost and they aren’t having a problem. But this is a Wordpress install. I was getting the same error message when attempting to access the backend and the main site: “The page you are trying to access is currently not working properly. This may be due to server maintenance or a software error. Please try again in 5-10 minutes.” Get the whole story
