So first off, I want to say welcome to all the newcomers from Allan. Welcome!

Secondly, I want to say “Damn you, Allan! All your readers broke my website!” I kid, I kid. I love you, Allan! And I love YOU new readers! It was not your fault. It was my webhosts’ fault (webhostingpad.com)

Here is the problem: My webhosting service apparently sucks and cannot handle more than 2,000 visits a day (awesome, right?). So right now only this front page is working. You cannot read the archives, can’t read the cast page, the about page, none of it. Just this front page. So this really screws over you new readers, you can’t read the rest of this comic.

I’m currently in talks with my webhost to fix this problem, so hopefully that will be taken care of soon. Hopefully. Then in the next few days I am going to try and transfer to a different webhost (because webhostingpad.com sucks). I don’t know if there will be downtime for the site, I don’t know if I’ll have to rebuild everything from scratch, don’t know what will happen to my e-mail account. I don’t know, I never switched hosts before. But I need to transfer because any webhost that cannot handle more than 2,000 views in a day is a joke (again, that’s webhostingpad.com). So I don’t know what will happen over the next few days. I hope there’s no downtime, but be ready for it just in case.

I would ask for suggestions on webhosts or how to transfer hosts without losing anything, but the comment function probably won’t work until the rest of the site is fixed (webhostingpad.com). Twitter me with suggestions or advice (I’m @pranas).

EDIT: The site seems to be working fine now. Cross your fingers, who knows how long it will last. I’m still going to do some research and transfer to a new host at some point in the future. I’ve gotten some good suggestions and advice from people in the past few hours. Feel free to post some more in the comments if you want.
