Leaving Rack0 Hosting

I’ve been using Rack0 hosting for few of my niche websites on a popular reseller package for some time.  Last week their servers were hacked and everything got wiped out including all of my sites and databases.  I couldn’t retrieve anything.  They didn’t even have  a backup.  I really liked Rack0 because of their fast customer service, but I’ve decided to take my business else where. SingleHop hosting has been great for my business for many many years. They are getting another account from me this week. :) I left SingleHop, although they’ve been great without any problem, because my server was getting old. I now have all my sites hosted at ServInt just because I got a better deal there.

Because my sites were built with WordPress, I didn’t have backups of the databases on my PC.  It was a great reminder to regularly backup your WordPress databases for events like this.
