Avoid the Sunday downtime.

Helpful website owner tip #47*:

Avoid having your website host bottom-out and crash on a Sunday. Tech help is replaced by automated responses from either actual automated email, or the tech reply equivalent of an answering service.

"But Julie, I can't control when my site will crash. I can't control when my host will go wonky."

Well, then. Tough bounce. Welcome to my world.

Actual response to my support ticket that my site was down:
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. I have asked a member of our team who specializes in Web Site Management to review your account. You should be hearing from this specialist within 24-48 hours.

My reply:
I appreciate that it might take some time, but I sure hope you're kidding that you're going to have someone get in touch with me in one to two days... I can't run a website business like that.

Obviously, it's fixed now. But, for the record, avoid Sunday downtime.



*I don't know where the other 46 went.
