Slow Server
Hey, we are still having problems with our host..Aplus. I always hesitate to name names, but I have to say I'm just so disappointed. And I'm curious on what people have to say about other hosts who use Miva, and are efficient. When you go to our site, and click on a product it's SO SLOW! We are dropping Lots of orders and it's really upsetting. I am going to go in tonight, and start deleting obsolete files and old stuff to make it faster and leaner.
According to our tech support, they feel that we've uploaded some new modules that could be problematic. The three new modules I've turned on are: Swaplink, Template Data Feed, and Metatags Helper. All of a sudden our server is just crawling, and I'm concerned that it has to do with any one of these. I really don't want to switch servers before a big holiday season.
I am curious who knows what about switching servers. How quickly do the search engines respond? How easy is the transition? Are we foolish to do this two months before xmas? I can't keep going on the way I am because I'm losing sales by the minute in our current situation. Tonight I'll dump a lot off of our server and we'll see how that works. This is HUGELY frustrating!! HELP!
