what the heck are you talking about.
I have always hosted my own server.
spent 1000s on server programs.
I'm not about to throw that away and have someone else serve it and steal data.
my data is confidential only to me and my server.
I'm referring to your network provider. If you want to host your site at home, that's fine, but you'll need the following:
- a server properly configured for hosting websites
- a network connection that is specifically for businesses and/or hosting websites on a server
You've had nothing but trouble connection-wise, which can be due to a number of factors, including a router (if in use), firewall, and the supplier of the network connection itself. You can have server-grade hardware, but it's useless if the network isn't designed for the purpose you're using it for.
I should also mention that your website is loading much faster now, but it's still somewhat slow compared to other sites being properly hosted. I looked into it, and it would now appear that you've switched from Shaw Communications to Telus Communications.
I would look over the entirety of my operations, from hardware, to software, to network, but that's just me. I've hosted resource-intensive sites (like Dolphin 7) on computers far less powerful than the one you're claiming to use, and have served content far faster than your site. It all comes down to configuration (software) and network.
