To Prevent this from happening in the future, follow these great guidelines

Guideline #1: Do not install any third-party plugins during the weekend. Make sure that, if you are going to upload one, you do it during our business hours. The reason for this is that any plugin that you upload will run the risk of causing issues with formatting or breaking your site and causing an error 500 rendering your site down.

Guideline #2: If you check your site and it redirects you saying that you are not able to access it, grab your smartphone, turn off the WIFI so that you are using data only. Then go to your site on your phone. If you see your site on your phone, it means that you have an IP block and your site is not down, your IP is blocked from the server.

Guideline #3: Try to keep your edits to your site until the week. This way if you accidentally delete all of your content on a page or delete a page altogether we can assist you in possibly recovering what you have deleted.

Guideline #4: If you see a white screen notification that your website has been suspended, that means that your Sharefaith Membership needs to be renewed. If this happens that means that your automatic renewal was either turned off or that your automatic renewal failed because of an issue with your card on file.
