I normally use Zamzar for file conversion. You can even convert videos from YouTube directly to .mp3, very convenient.

You are right, my blog's traffic dropped considerably these two days. There is really not that many lifeless people spending their Christmas in front of their screens.

The first two months was totally awesome, with 99.93% and 99.97% of uptime respectively. But it suffers a little for April, with 54 minutes downtime to date, meaning it will definitely not make it to the promised 99.9%.

I will try to ask for a refund that month, see if they keep their promise.

And according to the second email I have attached above, they claims that my CPU usage is acceptable, but it is my traffic that they are not happy. Read the part under "Connection/Traffic".

It says "only certain amount of connections can be accepted in a shared hosting server", and they claims that my blogs used up the connection quota, causing difficulties to visitors wanting to connect to another website on the same server because they will need the current connections to disconnect first before they can establish new connections.

I suppose all that they are trying to say is, too many visitors are trying to connect to my blog at a time. This somewhat translates to visitors limit, since if you have decent traffic to your blog, there will anyhow be visitors that are wanting to connect at the same time right?

There's only 24 hours per day after all. It's impossible to keep concurrent connections low with high amount of traffic.

I have reported the so-called "verification website" to its host and domain provider. It's just a matter of time before any of the both pull the plug.

If you're not convinced it's scam site, just click on the "Submit" button without entering any of the bullshit raffle draw number and batch number. Heck, you can even enter your dog's name there and it will still say you won 850,000.00 GBP.

You might be right. I have no issues at all after moving to HostGator. Both uptime and response time are better than WPWebHost. cPanel is showing that my account uses around 0.1% CPU and 0% of memory most of the time.

That's why it puzzles me why HostGator can handle my blogs without any problems and WPWebHost is complaining about my traffic, CPU usage, etc.

Here's HostGator's uptime - http://www.pingdom.com/reports/rl79x2oke0lr/month...

But then it's only the first month I am with HostGator, maybe they just want to keep me happy within the 45 days of money back guarantee.

This is Twitter's reason for the 2nd February password resets, apparently it's related to torrent sites - http://status.twitter.com/post/367671822/reason-4...

But I don't remember having any accounts on any torrent sites, so I don't think this attack is related to that. Any idea?
