What I’ve learned about moving to a new hosting company

My biggest fear was that my billing would get screwed up on my pay site, I use verotel. The new DNS propagated through sometime Thursday night no sales Thursday or Friday then 2 sales Saturday, one by CC one by Check the check seemed to go through but I got a email saying there was a technical problem with the credit card transaction I sent a support email to verotel (still no answer) then a check sale Sunday seemed to go through ok. Another CC sale this morning was cancelled because of technical problem, looked at my Verotel account and see the check transactions have been cancelled also. Got on the phone to verotel and find out that they need to change the server path when moving to a new server. (ARGH)

Cyberwurx has been great it took several emails and a phone call to get my e-mail setup (they called me) also emails to get .htaccess and MYSQL database setup and I couldn’t figure out the path to my root. One of those emails was at 3 in the morning and I still got an answer within 15 min. So I’m very happy with Cyberwurx..

I did have to screw around with file permissions. And said screw it and totally redid one of my hubs (it looks better now) and has the latest version of AutoGallery Pro.

I also got a rejection e-mail from Jennifer this morning she LOL at me all my recips on the free site were going to google somehow in the transfer I lost an </a>

About 5 or 6 months ago I was looking for someone to install a script for me and Cleo said I needed to learn how to do it myself (I’m sure I muttered something like Bitch under my breath at the time). Thankfully I took her advice otherwise I would have been totally lost through the move.
Cyberwurx A+ in my books
First problem with Verotel but they could take customer support lessons from Cyberwurx
