This site will be down for a day or two starting within the next 24 hours while I transfer to a new and less expensive webhost (and upgrade the CMS at the same time). I moved to this shared host a couple of years ago at near double the price of my previous host, primarily because the new hosting was more reliable, particularly with the database services. That database service has gradually degraded over the last year or so, to the point where there is little difference from the host I was at previously for half the price. When I entered a ticket for this issue, the only solution they could offer was a dedicated MySQL db - which would more than double the cost for hosting (or quadruple what my previous host cost me).. since they could not offer any other option, they have lost my custom, and the custom of two others who have sites hosted there. Sorry Media Temple - you were good for a while, but I guess all good things must come to an end, and this is yours, as far as my custom goes.
