Our new server is now breathing and we are ready to move some live clients across.
Clients will be migrated onto the new server platform 'serversaurus' in accordance with the schedule below. We intend to forward all DNS records which will result in zero downtime. However due to the complexity and size of this operation many users may find the server running slow at periods of the weekend and we appreciate your patience and understanding with this.
Once work is complete we will post an announcement here.
We strongly advise all customers to store a backup of your website, databases and emails at some point during the next 24 hours. For advice please visit: http://www.simplehostingsolutions.co.uk/portal/knowledgebase.php?action=displayarticle&id=26
In the mean time please sit back and relax.
