Who solved my website migration nightmare

When your web hosting company closes you down unexpectedly, that’s one big challenge. When you’ve got 50 sites, that’s a huge challenge. When something goes wrong with the process of restoring the backup files for 50 sites, THAT… is a nightmare.
And that’s what I’ve been wrestling with these last few days.
Here’s why.
My old host suspended me for having too many files on my unlimited disk space hosting account. Yep, it’s in the fine print that you cant have too many files… but it would have been nice if they had given me the 14 days they wrote to me about. It was 14 days to remove the excessive files or they would close me down. TWO DAYS LATER, they suspended all my sites. Not nice, if you ask me.
