Back from Dead | Troubleshoot slow page loads & 503 errors of WordPress blog

TL;DR: Read logs, delete useless shit, keep the DB clean. * Warning: A long read! * Oh well, I feel like a n00b while typing this but that's how things roll. I am not sure if I have any regular readers left, as to have regular readers one needs to be a regular author, which I am clearly not. (Yes, I wish to change.)

A story which might teach you a thing or two about hosting WordPress on your own hosting. It …

Back to the basics + rant against Godaddy! [Comeback]

Hey folks, If you are a regular reader of Bitsnapper, you may have noticed that I haven't written a post from a few weeks now. Well, you can blame it on my life (with stuff going on) and partially on Godaddy for not making the transitioning phase from one hosting to another seamless. This blog is powered by Wordpress, and I began with something Godaddy likes to call Wordpress Managed Hosting as they claim that these servers have virtually 0 downtimes and are optimised to work with Wordpress hosted blogs/websites. The entry barrier is pretty cheap as you start with ₹99/month for any …

If you are a reader of BitSnapper from a long time, you can obseve the same pattern at my post for Den Boomband, Royal Enfield, MTNL and MTS. This platform was supposed …
