RIP 000 Website Builder! | Plans For The Future!

            Well I think my website has finally come to it's last legs of existence as now I cannot edit whatsoever, nor post up the podcasts on there and I have had response from their staff and/or Mods, they are looking into it. If it is not corrected in a few days, I will be walking away from their platform and once I am able to edit, the website will be put into maintenance mode for good and will remain in maintenance mode until the domain expires. So I will be only using the blogger page for the meantime until I can get to another provider by the end of the year. 


              Honestly enough is enough, I have had nothing but problems for the past 3 years and I am honestly done with 000webhost and their  service. They use to be good at the start but honestly it has gone hill since they changed the entire CPanel and the website mail system was changed to a forwarding system, I am been very unsatisfied with them. Also noting they have down time too, their server hiccups, web builder problems the list is endless with the problems. I knew at the end of last year, I knew my domain was to expire after 3 years.


                So what is the plan for the website? I will be renewing the domain but will be going with Hostinger and got a plan already in tact and excited to truly rebuild the website from the ground up and start fresh and away from 000webhost. Once the domain is officially renewed, then the re-coding process is underway and trust me it will be worth the wait once the website is re-coded and it will be the same layout as before, I may modify a few things but we will see how it goes when the re-code goes, but for the most part the website will remain as it is in it's current state. But I got a few ideas to possibly changing the system for Everything About Reality TV but yet you guys do like the current system I got so I plan on leaving everything as it is. What I could do is get chrisbontheweb.ca but then the website has to update on the back of my shirt, which I use as a advertising tool locally when I am out and about so that plan is kind of out the door. I am excited to talk about the future plans for the website finally. This website outage really started to make think of what I would like to do with the next version of my website. I am aiming to working on the site between December 2018 and aiming to launch the website on January 1st, 2019.

Website Ramble....

             You guys know I like a smooth running website, but yesterday was the complete opposite as I couldn't load the web builder and honestly I am starting to get sick and tired of being on this service if it is going to be always down for me and not able to edit the website. Mind you, the site itself isn't down it is still running, it is just frustrating to not be able to edit the site and get that new content out to you guys on time but majority of the time it goes down or something goes wrong with the web builder so I end up making that announcement if it seems to not work anytime soon, then I have to go to that plan B as a lot of you guys saw yesterday and had to remove the website link ChrisBOnTheWeb.com related and go with the other 4 Audio ONLY platforms.


               What drives me nuts though, it seems like every time a podcast comes out, something goes wrong with the website or the website builder and it sucks to not always have all 5 platforms promoted for you guys but today, I finally got a chance to edit and add the Big Brother Canada 6 Preview to the website as most of you probably seen my update Post/Tweet this morning. This is why I really wanna get the heck away from 000webhost and move to my new provider. however in order to do this I need to 1 have the domain expire so I can move it over to the other provider, yes I could go with the .ca but the .com seems to be more and more popular right now.


                Even with the malfunctions on my website, I still manage to bring out content regardless of the on going problems going on, nothing will stop me from giving you guys the content you guys want to see but like come on! Enough is enough with the problems, honestly it has to stop with the problems and yes I know there will be problems here and there but patience is truly a virtue and I have to show that and I know you guys are very patient during the times the website problems occur and I truly appreciate the patience.
