    hello dprs,

    My problem doesn't lasts for much long, but its creating a little trouble for me. My host is daily moving their data centers and in doing so my site hosted on their servers stays down at any unknown time, this happens for very less time though, however every alternate day i see my site down at any hour for a little time. I am in great confusion about how to solve this thing. I m not interested in moving to new host as my budget doesn't allows me to do so and the present one is the best one, only thing with them is they are temporarily facing some technical issues which is making them to update their data centers at often times..

    besides i had heard about cloudfare somewhere, so will that service help to tackle this problem or its just useless for this particular case?

    do u people know any method to use a free hosting in down time to backup site? coz some people say that free hosting removes the data if you dont keep it activated for long time. Since my primary host is some other, i wont be able to keep free host activated 24 hours.. i only want it to support my site when it is down.

    how i should keep my site 24 hours online for viewers with present host and domain...let me know if there is need of using any extra service for this

    in a nutshell.... leme know every possible way you can help me out...

    thanks in advance

    best
    vita

    We might help by displaying a cached version of your site, if one is in cache because of our Always Online feature, but it isn't going to fully fix the issue with your host taking the back end server down frequently.

    Move to another hosting company, hours of downtime everyday is unacceptable.

    Simply, move to another host which is most reliable.
