Hey Everyone,
Thought I’d post a longer update for this since there’s a bit of stuff involved.
So most of you know that I got myself a proper site about 2 months back and moved out of my free wordpress site. Unfortunately, being very tired at the time and not really thinking about it, I basically just upgraded my site on wordpress.com.
Some of you have probably realised what my mistake was, but basically wordpress.com still limits a lot of what I can do. What I should have done is buy a domain on wordpress.org and then get the domain hosted somewhere else.
60 days have passed since I first got the silenttranslations.com domain and it can now be unlocked for transfer, so I plan to migrate hosting to Bluehost over the next few days. Ideally there shouldn’t be any issues, but this move may result in my site going down for about a week or so. Unlike the last move, you probably shouldn’t need to do things like resubscribe, I’m just moving files around and gaining the ability to use plugins, which was the whole point of upgrading to a paid site.
This post is a heads up that I will start the site transfer tomorrow which might take my site down for a week, hopefully shorter. I plan this to be the last major move I have to do for the site in…ever?
Thanks in advance for your patience.
