CornerHost.com Hosting About to Switch Off–Need Help?

I’ve just read an article over on Gizmodo discussing the imminent loss of data for previous customers of CornerHost.com

Gizmodo Article

Having helped a client before with similar problems I can understand how frustrating and worrying this can be,

If you’re one of CornerHost’s customers there are some things you can do now in preparation:

1) Backup!   If you can get a copy of all of your hosted files, then getting your website up and running on another host is going to be much easier!

2) Take a note of your IP address (from a command prompt type “ping www.yourdomain.com” to find out the address of your hosting server

3) If name resolution fails, you can always add a local hosts file to poiint to your server to aid getting a backup
