Amen to that! You would think that considering this is a "mostly" pay site that some of that cash would find it's way back to "The Alley". Meez tinkin dat aint gonna happen!
No it goes into the pocket of the new crappy owners instead of helping the alley or through IPODS and other gifts. Kinda crappy we sold it to a marketing firm (I believe if not I apologize)
I think the VA core site speed is average. It is the downloading of the banner ads that slows the site down. It looks like it receives pay ads from two or three different sites. It looks like autoadsforum.com is the main offender.
Internet Brands owns the site correct? They are having server issues. I'm a mod on another forum they own and that is what they told us.
All their sites have issues, they bought one of the business sites I'm on and right after the site went to hell, slooooow, always glitching, stupid errors. Bought over a year ago and still haven't fixed certain things.
As of the last few weeks the Alley has been working very slow or I have to reload the page multiple times to get it to work. Some one go tell those new slick handed owners to stop in and wrench on the site server a bit.
Doubtful but maybe Smackie could step in with his canyon of computer wisdom to help things out.
