In the evening of the first full day of our vacation in the Virgin Islands I finally obtained the password to my great aunt’s satellite wifi so that I could get back online and check my email. Apparently, my web host had finally shut off my account as I had been requesting for the past 6 months or so. That meant that I had around 40 or so websites that went down on the 15th of last month.
“Wonderful, wonderful…”
I used to hear Lawrence Welk say it all the time, only he meant it. I, of course, am joking.
I spent some of my time on vacation getting a few websites back up, but I wasn’t going to sweat it. The satellite internet was just too slow and reliable to worry about all that I had to do. It was a leisurely vacation and I attacked it at my leisure.
My main site, Domain Hostmaster was running fine. But I have a variety of web hosting sites. The reseller package where I cancelled the hosting 6 months ago (or more) just wasn’t selling.
The first full day back I was able to get my wife’s Violin & Viola Teacher website back online at my Apache Website Hosting site. Since then, I’ve been working on all the other sites so much that I hadn’t bothered to stop and blog about anything, much less this fiasco.
Part of the trouble is that when I thought I had the time to take care of this I didn’t. I was distracted and the websites were all staying up, online and available. So I started taking care of a whole different list of things. That’ll teach me! Now I’m running around trying to put out fires everywhere.
OK, let me go through my list, now…
4GZ.Net & 4GZ.US are back online with pretty much the same starter page, for now (these 4G domain names are available for sale, as a package).
8TLD.com ($8.00 Top Level Domains) is finally resolving to W3DN.com (Wholesale Worldwide Web Domain Names), now.
9TLD.com was always fine.
I still have a lot of work to do. A Bit Of All Right is still pretty much down. Add URL Engine needs some work. ADGTW needs help.
I have a few sites under the A Dog Is A Mans Best Friend brand that seem OK where they are at, for now. That service isn’t right for many other domains, though.
ADTDA has an actual page, now (I hadn’t gotten around to putting one up before).
I put up a little spot for A Man’s Home Is His Castle.
AutoTruckUS.com has it’s own page, now.
And of course I stopped in and added this post at Blare.Info. I have to add a photo or some kind of a logo here, I see.
Bracelet Poker has a new home. I need to add a logo to that one, as well.
Hmmm…. still lots to do in the B’s. I’ve already been through the list once, this is my second time through. Some of these single home page sites are totally new, but as I am working on my websites I have been trying to get everything straightened out, not just what’s wrong.
OK, gotta get busy on some of these, now…
Wonderful, wonderful…
