    So google crawl shows me this error
    <!-- WP Super Cache is installed but broken. The path to wp-cache-phase1.php in wp-content/advanced-cache.php must be fixed! -->

    I have overloaded my hosts server twice in the last 2 days and been shut down for TOS

    I tried just switching to w3 total cache and now I get this

    Database caching is not available: db.php is not installed. Either the /hsphere/local/home/c316569/reveretaxi.com/wp-content directory is not write-able or you have another caching plugin installed. This error message will automatically disappear once the change is successfully made.

    Can anyone help me?

    I'd suggestion starting by uninstalling your current caching plugins and reinstalling. There are a variety of different reasons this could be occurring.

    But this would be best as per the "or you have another caching plugin installed" reference in the error.

    Google crawl shows this error on the sites I never switched plugins with? Any ideas now?

    I don't really have any sites with the wp-super-cache plugin to test this, so it makes it hard to troubleshoot, and like I said there could be numerous issues causing this, but you could try to do the following:

    "Open the file wp-content/advanced-cache.php in your favorite editor. Is the path to wp-cache-phase1.php correct? This file will normally be in wp-content/plugins/wp-super-cache/. If it is not correct the caching engine will not load."

    Try disabling all your plugins, emptying the cache, re-installing your current version of Wordpress and turning on the plugins again one at a time, checking after each one, see if that will fix the issue.

    Deactivate all caching plugins and delete files and folders associated with the plugins.Then install the plugin of your choice.

    I went with hostwinds. New company but the guy running it is top notch.

    As far as unique the only thing I go by is adsense unique page impressions and thats around 500 a day. I dont think that is alot.
