DreamHost, my usually awesome Web hosting company, has been down for most of the day. Apparently one of their network backbones suffered some sort of disruption. Access to Gibberish has been intermittent or completely down for the last sixteen hours.

As much as I love DreamHost, does anyone know of a good Web hosting company that has built-in support for WordPress and Gallery 2?

I’ve moved drfaulken.com, and by extension Gibberish and the gallery, over to a more dedicated server on DreamHost. The site has been slow lately. I’d like to think it’s partly from my traffic, but I think there are just too many other sites on my old server. I did have a 10,000 unique visitor spike over a two day period last week, but traffic has settled down to slightly-more-than-prior levels.

I did manage to move almost 15GBs worth of content last month, which is a record for Gibberish. Pretty sweet for a blog started for a dozen readers. :)

The move is supposed to be seamless, but if you notice anything weird please let me know.

Do you think the site is performing better than before?
