The last time I saw Kokidokom going down was like a whole month and a week ago as told by Author of Ani-Nouto. Unfortunately, the site went down again today as a result of BlueHost suspension. The suspension of Kokidokom’s host brought down anime blogs like Simplicity, Anime Princess, Hey Say Anime, Anime^2, and Metanorn.
When the sites grow bigger, shared hosting may not be feasible anymore. In some cases, site suspension can be the shared host’s fault depending on their strict policy on resource usage even if they provide “Unlimited” bandwidth and storage. Zzeroparticle of Anime Instrumentality Blog experienced this for several months when his host complained about the excessive RAM usage. The strange thing is that his site was only generating 400 visitors per day. The number of visitors that size can’t possibly generate a very high CPU and RAM usage even with a caching plugin enabled. Eventually, he moved the site to WPWebHost and haven’t had any problems ever since.
Perhaps Kokidokom needs to switch to a more reliable host to get rid of this suspension problem once and for all. After all, BlueHost were the ones caused havoc to anime blogs when they took down Hinano’s blog for instance.
Update: Kokidokom is now back up.
