Hello all,

I just realized I ran out of b/w space from my hosting company and they are asking me to pay a lot more than i can afford at the moment and by the time i can convert to a newer host, it seems it might take about a week or week and a half. What will happen to my Adsense earnings when the site is down? or the URL is changed?

Will googlebot come and see no information and kick me out?

Please let me know ASAP thanks.

"What will happen to my Adsense earnings when the site is down?"

Are you asking how many people will click your ads when no one in the world can visit your site?

No Downtime will not get you kicked out of Adsense. As it stands now, at least.

Sites go down and it is nothing to worry about.

Far as change of url--no biggie you can use your code on a myriad of sites so URLS/domains make no difference.

As far as your bandwidth prob sorry to hear that had that happen to me once and a 5 dollar hosting month turned into $27. Learned from that mistake that you should check your stats at least once every 3 days.

You don't have your own domain name?

If not, why not? USD 10.00 or so is not too much to pay surely?

Then you could move it to whatever host you want to without fear of getting lost in the SERPs!

it seems it might take about a week or week and a half.

What on earth are you moving, Wikipedia? :-)

This should be a few minutes job.

No, I do have a domain already (duh) it is hosted at one company but i need to transfer it now to another hosting company.

It transfers within 24 hours but it taks about 5-7 days before it gets registered etc. which is why i was asking.

Moreover, i was very keen on that because will lets say
admin@john.com was my adsense email, but i transfer it and again create an admin@john.com, will adsense recognize that by then or not?

Thanks a lot for your help

That is why I use my gmail email in my AdSense account, it should be easy to switch.

As for down time, I once went down for weeks by an incompetent hosting company, interestingly I was still making good money from ads on my Google cache, and no I was not kicked out.

Registered where? Once you register a domain name, you don't need to change any registration information if you change hosts, except the DNS information. Your new hosting company can change add your domain to their DNS servers in a few minutes. After that, it may take up to 48 hours before the changes filter out to the rest of the world, but most people should be able to see the new hosted domain within 24.

If your new hosting company is telling you anything longer than that, I would definitely look for yet another one!

admin@john.com is admin@john.com- no one will know any difference, unless your new/old hosting company's mail servers were blocking some domains or if your new hosting company's IPs are being blocked by other servers becasue they (hosting company) hosted a lot of SPAMMERS.

I lost last year one of my clients.

He did all sort of mad things with his domain.

All his pages had been indexed under
http://example.com

But the new host brought no DNS found,
worked only with http://www.example.com

He stored his old site in a folder some where else
[other-domain...]

He put a complete new site on example.com

Later his old domain got looked by his new host,
only to see

Sorry, this page is not more available.

But very strange, he has still about 70% of his old traffic after all this mad actions.

No time at all to change over.
My record is having an idea to one page site in about 10 minutes. That included DNS propagation (sp?) for me.
