I woke up this morning, ready to get busy. I wanted to prepare a few posts for over the weekend.

I go to log in and check my stats and what do I see… NOTHING!!

I can’t log in my account has been suspended by hostgator. Totally my fault, I’ve been so busy I forgot to pay the invoice. OH *#@%^!!

I’ve been with HostGator for a year and really like everything about their hosting plan. My website has never been down, the cpanel is easy to manage, they have a lot of great features, I can unlimited pretty much everything through this account… It’s a really great plan.

This is the one thing that has always bothered me. I am on the “baby” plan. It’s kind of the middle of the road, I could go smaller, I could go bigger. However on this plan, they don’t do auto billing. I don’t like when people don’t do auto billing. I mean really, are we back in the ’80’s?

You’d think it would be way easier for them to autobill as well. Then they wouldn’t have to worry about dummies like me forgetting to pay the invoice. It’s only ten bucks a month. Not a big deal.

But when I woke up to a screen that says “This Account Has Been Suspended” and so did everyone else wanting to view Home with Heather, I have to say I’m not too happy!

So of course I logged in right away and paid the invoice. Then I sat here and waited, and waited. One cup of coffee… two…three… OK I’m on my fourth cup of coffee and my account is still locked. This is not a good thing.

I will be checking into how I can get my billing plan made easier with them so this doesn’t happen in the future. What if I was away on vacation, like I will be next month. My account and all my blogs would be frozen until I got home to correct the problem. I won’t be taking that chance again.

Alright, I’m done complaining… and I feel better. Thanks Michael for getting me back up and running.

Sorry if you tried to view HWH this morning to find that it wasn’t there, it’s back and life is good.

AND It’s Friday, so smile

Expect the Best,
