My Site has been off the net for about 7 days. It is because I encountered problems with my database. And since I am new to WordPress It took sometime to figure it out. I will share you the experience that I have encountered during reviving this site.
I would like to thank Jeff from Snoobhosting.net my Hosting provider for helping me revive my site.
I lost all my database from October 10,2007 to date. So if you have any links to my site, I will gonna repost it via the back p up that I have thru Windows Live Writer. So it will take time.
I don’t want this thing to happen to all of you guys so, I will share my experience to you later.

@ Blue..
Oo nga but sayang yung mga comments.. Comments from my site makes me happy since I know that somebody is reading my blog.
@ lestat

@ Jaypee
Thanks for the suggestion of WP-DBManager.. I will check it all out.
Thanks guys for all your suggestion
Hi Dex, sorry to hear about what happened. It really sucks when something like this happens and you don’t have backups. I’ve experienced this several times before and I know how it is. Oh well, atleast your blog is back.
Btw, you might want to install a plugin to backup your database. Try WP-DBManager, it’s what I use and it works for me. Aside from manual backups, you can schedule a backup and have it emailed to you.
Happy New Year! 🙂
Welcome back Dex…
I think you should install skippy wordpress database plug-in so you won’t lose your precious comment just in case something bad happens..
