We were in the process of upgrading the Blog to latest wordpress and moving the host. Now we are back.

You have been an outstanding driving force and motivation for us writers to keep on producing content, we look forward to your continued support for building this a platform for bringing change and launching initiatives for every ones benefit.
Stay tuned for more updates.

Why did you move back to bluehost? I know Mediatemple isn’t really very good but you should have moved to a better host.

@Sanix, dude how did you find out we went to blue host scary
MediaTemple package that we had was a little bit expensive for us at the moment, plus I realized that the issue we first need to resolve is to make the site more optimized (less heavy), then if we get enough traffic that blue host can’t manage then we probably might think again.
you have any recommendations??

@Qazi, That’s simple. Your site’s IP address is in the bluehost owned subnet. Bluehost is really good but the problem with them is that they don’t offer any extra resources for extra money. They provide the same standard service to everyone which may be good for small timers but when you get big, you have to move out and look for bigger players.
If you get a sudden burst in traffic, bluehost will not be able to manage it and your site will keep on displaying 500 Internal errors and ultimately end up in your account being banned by bluehost. To avoid this, you must make sure that you aren’t getting enough traffic
Alternately, if you still like to be on bluehost, you can use a CDN for your resources. Amazon S3 and Rackspace CDN are two popular CDNs. As you’re on the latest build of WP, you can use CDN plugin for wordpress which will take care of the distribution of resources between bluehost and the CDN.

@Sanix – the switch was because Qazi took over the assets and site of green & white and moved everything to his server. I just made the announcement today. My other sites etc are still on MT although M5 sounds like a very very good host.
@Qazi – yes do look out for those 503 errors… remember those are the issues we faced when we moved to MT in the first place… but hopefully the optimizations will work too… like heavy caching which we didnt do much of earlier.
