Earlier today there was some downtime on the server for a few hours. All is back to normal and you should all see your websites again. My host Holdfire have posted a blog regarding the issue.

Dharma’s motherboard unexpected died on us earlier this morning with no hint that it was going to stop working. Since we house our servers in a datacenter, we do not always have immediate access to them. There was a long delay with having the motherboard replaced which results in Dharma being down for more than 60 minutes (which is our own SLA we have from our provider.) Unfortunately there was nothing we could have done to sped this up as our provider did not have any extra motherboards for our specific server processor on hand. As a result they went out of there way to purchase a new mobo and as such was the reason why our server was down for several hours this early afternoon.

Dharma just happens to be the server Floriental is on. Thank you all for your patience during this time!

I do need to have another check that all hostees are linking back. This isn’t such a huge deal but for those who haven’t linked back for quite a while, I will be emailing you. I will also be looking at inactive hostees who have not emailed me regarding their inactivity, and just doing a general checkup.

Since the price of .com and .net domains has increased, I’ve increased the prices of those domains by a dollar, which isn’t very much difference.

I might have a domain giveaway in the near future. I’m quite busy so I can’t really hold anything huge – it might be a small Twitter contest, or it might just be a domain contest at random. I won’t be giving away many because at the beginning of this year, I did give away 10. (I also don’t want to buy domains for people who won’t use them or will ditch them later down the line.)
