Why a new Website?

Well I will state the obvious first, the current site is four (4) years old know.

With the new site I will have total control over updating the site, If I create the greatest image I ever made I can load it up soon after it’s creation. It should greatly increase traffic and hopefully business to my site.

But wait what was wrong with the old site, basically it is old and static. Also I need to say a bit about the host of the old site.

For the life of the current site I had been happy with the host (whom I will not name here). In the last few months they have been transferring all of their hosted sites to a new platform. Ok should be smooth and easy like it always had been, wrong! After they transitioned my site things started going badly! First my e-mail just stopped working. I spent many hours over two weeks trying to resolve the issue several times I would find that they declared the issue resolved with out ever contacting me. I would again contact them and they would promise that some one would call be and no one ever did until two days ago. Finally a supervisor calls me back and we work on the problem for almost an hour and finally he admits they do not have a clue as to what is wrong. All along they inferred it was something on my end. Mysteriously later that day it started to work again sort of.

Sometimes the best solution is to totally erase the board and start from scratch, and that is what I have decided to do in this case.

By the way the phone center for Ipower is located in the Phillapeans. Whoops I’m bad I said I was not going to mention the host Ipower (I did it again).

Any how I am finished with this rant!
