How I migrated away from WebHost4Life

If WebHost4Life has migrated your website to their new hosting platform, you are probably at your wits end in dealing with the problems created by the migration process. Advertised as a better platform than the old one, you are now dealing with email problems, database problems, missing file issues, missing subdomains and the list goes on and on. In other words, the new platform is a lot worse than the old one… and trying to get competent support from WebHost4Life is a huge waste of time.

By now, everyone who has or had their website hosted by WebHost4Life is probably well aware of the infamous word “migration”… because your website has either been migrated to their new platform… or is in the midst of being migrated to their new platform… or is going to be migrated to their new platform in the near future.

Webhost4life and my website migration nightmare

Webhost4life is in the process of migrating all of their hosted websites to a new hosting platform… a platform that is supposed to “provide me with a wide variety of new tools and services”. My website was migrated to the new hosting platform on May 11, 2010… and the only thing that I’ve been provided with is aggravation, poor support and a very time-consuming process in trying to get my website working properly.

When will IE6 just go away?

As a website designer I would really like to see Internet Explorer Version 6 disappear from the planet. I’m tired of having to write special html code so that my web pages display properly for IE6 viewers.
