Not a problem.
No need to move. The only problem we have now is lack of support.

But we dont really need it.
If anything happens where we need them, we'll get in touch with them somehow.

I think we've got a solution in place now.
For the price you can't expect great support.

We have a pretty decent uptime and other than losing posts we haven't had any trouble.

Now with the auto backup running if they drop our db we can just restore it ourselves.

Since the actual site itself doesn't change much there are only 2 master site backups, which at the current rate of update should pretty much suffice for the foreseeable future.
