What's new at Money Making Blogger?

I guess I'm pretty much caught up in researching for keywords and making a list of them so that I can use up keywords in each of my future post. Besides that, I'm also 'discovering' everything new about Wordpress.org be it it's Widgets, Plugins, hard coding things on my theme editor, checking out on my server stats, checking on my error stats and stuffs like that.

Choosing the right Web Hosting

To tell you the truth, there's no 'right' web hosting out there not until you have a go at one yourself. I spent quite sometime deliberating on the 'best' hosting provider between Hostgator, GoDaddy, BlueHost and a few others and finally I settled for hosting with BlueHost.com.

BlueHost a.k.a BH easily becomes the 'perfect' choice because it's highly recommended by Wordpress and of course noobs like myself (I'm a newbie in both WP and hosting) will go for it too. So far so good, until this week I was having a short downtime but the problem resolved almost immediately and I did chat with the online support team and he explained me 'stuffs' or suffice to say, nothing that I should worry about.

However, what got me worrying was this warning :

  • Your account is actively experiencing CPU limiting factors (throttling).

  • During the past 24 hours your account has been throttled for a total of 81841.459 seconds.


And throttling keeps on increasing every seconds.

I'm not quite sure what effect will it have on my site. I've read that page load will be slower than usual and some people are experiencing a decreasing number of traffic too. At the moment, I've raised a ticket and waiting for the support's feedback. Worse to worse, I'll ignore the throttling issue completely and see how long will this site last before it's either suspended or crashed.

Oh well, that's the cost you have to pay for shared hosting eh.=)
