I got a note this morning from a loyal reader who stated point blank: The MSPMentor site performance has be slow lately. My response: You’re right and we’re fixing it. Across the board, Nine Lives Media Inc.’s web traffic is up 140 percent in October 2009 vs. October 2008. We thank you for your growing readership. We’re taking two steps to improve site responsiveness: A hardware upgrade from our service provider plus a few of our own software architecture tweaks. I will post a follow-up comment to this blog entry as soon as the adjustments are completed. In the meantime we appreciate the honest feedback. We’re listening and responding.
