Notice to Hosting Customers: Server Upgrade

May 21, 2010 by   

News


One of our servers, called Swanky, will be undergoing some upgrades starting at 1am EST on Sunday, May 23. The server will be offline for 3-6 hours while these upgrades are taking place. The upgrades will add more processing power to the server which will help increase it’s speed and performance time as well as make it better suited to run process-heavy WordPress powered sites (which most of our customers have).

If you are not sure which of our servers your account is on, you can find out by logging into your cPanel and looking for the server name under the Stats heading on the left side.

All accounts on the server will be checked after the upgrades take place and the server comes back online, but if you notice any problems with your site after 7am on Sunday morning, please contact us to let us know.





Notice to Hosting Clients: Billing issues

July 1, 2009 by   

Clients,News


A problem with our billing software since mid-June up until today has been sending out erroneous invoices and notices. This includes things like duplicate invoices or overdue/soon due notices on accounts already paid. We fixed the issue today so this won’t be happening any more. A bunch of emails went out early this morning before we found this fix, though, so if you received an invoice or notice on something you already paid, please just ignore it.

Sorry for the inconvenience and please feel free to contact us if you have any questions about your account. Thanks!
