Setting up camp

The move is nearing completeness. My blog has been up and running for the last couple of days, and I’ve been taking the time to test a couple of features on my provider. The move was a seamless handover, because I was able to setup all of my services before the move, up to a point which was only necessary to change nameservers. The largest chunk of time was actually setting up a couple of ssl configurations, which wasn’t in the original moving plan.

I’ve also managed to use my provider’s one click install for wordpress, but I had to manually update to 2.6, which works great over SSL in the admin interface (always nice to have).

On the down side, I had forgotten the nightmare that is operating a website through ftp and web interfaces. FTP takes forever to actually transfer files, how ironic.

Overall, the transfer was a breeze, and I didn’t see any relevant downtime. Did you ?
