SELaplana >> Technology >> Pinoy Top Blogs: Dead

I noticed several days ago that the Pinoy Top Blog button wasn’t showing at the footer of this blog. I thought, there was just problems with the server.

But then, Yuga announced on his blog that he really suspended the Pinoy Top Blogs because he can’t financed the operation of this ranking site.

I’m suspending the Pinoy Top Blogs project indefinitely. The total number of blogs (2,283) it currently tracks is already too high that it crashes the server almost everyday. That’s the reason I also stopped approving additional registrations there.

I’m already spending $200 a month for the dedicated (with almost no income, well if you consider $6/month from Adsense an income) server. The rig is an AMD Opteron 246 (2×2.0GHz) with 2GB of RAM. An additional 2GB of memory will cost me a $600 (one-time) and hopefully that would solve the current server crisis. So, unless I could get a sponsor or an advertiser for that site which will cover the amount for the upgrade, I’m shutting it down indefinitely.

Well, running a website that doesn’t earn something for the maintenance of it is really a big problem. That’s what I actually realized with my Pinoy Bloggers Directory site. But I think, suspending a site like this is not the remedy. And just think that my Pinoy Bloggers Directory is not as useful as the Pinoy Top Blogs of Yuga.

Yuga should consider first the suggestions dropped on his blog’s comment section, before killing it.
