Now, Digital Space is an affordable sort of webhost, so I&#8217;m not expecting 99.99% uptime or anything, but this new thing where they apparently go entirely offline for hours at a time with no warning isn&#8217;t really acceptable.

The only real requirements are that it be U.S. based (I&#8217;m paying with the ever-falling American peso, and so would rather avoid having to deal with exchange rates), has MySQL available (preferably at no extra charge), and has an up-to-date version of PHP installed.  I prefer that their servers run on Linux (or BSD), rather than Windows.  Oh, and they have to let me install things like Moveable Type, WordPress, or pmwiki.<\/p>\n<p>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the second time in the last couple of months my webhost, Digital Space, has gone offline entirely for several hours, meaning not only could I not access any of the three domains that arcaedia and I control between us (all of which are on different servers), but I couldn&#8217;t even connect to the main &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/of2minds.org\/michael\/2005\/01\/16\/webhosting-woes\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Webhosting woes&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-65","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/of2minds.org\/michael\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/of2minds.org\/michael\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/of2minds.org\/michael\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/of2minds.org\/michael\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/of2minds.org\/michael\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=65"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/of2minds.org\/michael\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/65\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/of2minds.org\/michael\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=65"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/of2minds.org\/michael\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=65"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/of2minds.org\/michael\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=65"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
