Website news

I have migrated the website over successfully, and the 2009 images will be appearing soon :)

Also, we have a new URL: www.gothla.us

www.gothla.com will still be valid, but won't work for at least another 24-72 hours while we get the transfer taken care of.

Basically, I moved the website because I was fed up with the webhost - powweb.com. I had been with them for over 6 years, and was very loyal, recommended many clients to them, and in the last few months, they've been taken over by someone else, all of their support (billing and tech) is done OVERSEAS (I've never heard so many fake "whitebread" names in my life), and not only did we have two major outtages (that I know of) in two weeks, but I was lied to about our billing and plan set-up, was promised corrections and better pricing and kept going back to square one. You don't quote me IN WRITING what I'll be paying and then refuse to honor it. TWICE. It takes a lot to get me pissed off, and after MANY hours on the phone and "live" chat, I pulled the plug.

So after some research, I've moved the site over to hostmonster.com - and already the support and service has been remarkable. They actually called ME to check on the website and confirm, I got an immediate response from tech support, and the set-up was the easiest ever.

I'll be moving my own websites over shortly, and I will be recommending that any of my old/current web clients do the same. Powweb is going down the tubes, the support and service now leaves much to be desired.



So yes, this was part rant, but

    Yay new host site! I love HostMonster, myself. I was so pleased and surprised when they called me to confirm my new domain with them. So fabulous!
