The Blog Peoria Project gets its second wind

I wanted let current and potential users know about the new and improved specifications for the Blog Peoria Project. Our new host is a company called WPWebhost. We are using the “Buddy Plan,” which is designed for WordPress Multi-User sites that powers Blog Peoria.

There’s never been a better time to sign up. If you are very concerned about preserving your anonymity, I can work with you and still benefit from blogging on a local blogging/social network.

The size of this site if far, far, far less and my monthly transfer rate does not approach this.

I resolved previous problems with down time by reducing server load. I did that by moving my personal blog (which you are reading now) off the Blog Peoria Project and onto it’s own server. I also removed a TON of plugins that added functionality and extra features for member bloggers.

I’ve reinstalled BuddyPress (much more stable than previous installations) and added some new plugins and widgets that users might want to play around with.

This website uses IntenseDebate comments, but they are not currently loaded because either your browser doesn't support JavaScript, or they didn't load fast enough.
