Hey guys, Reigokai here!
So…as you can read from above, the issue about the website? I am technically paying a premium for this site without getting any premium benefits. Isn’t that great?
I was told to wait and they will investigate if most of the traffic is non-human, and IF most of it are actually majorly humans, THEN they will do something about it; if not, I am fucked. No countermeasure was given to me. So I just wait and see, and am basically in a situation where it is more like “hey, you got lost in the desert? It would be great if you had something so you wouldn’t get lost again. Too bad, we don’t do that. Okay, now go back into the desert”.
It is the last straw. I was legit hesitating, not because of them, but because of all the comments and memories we have in this website, which I am pretty sure will be lost if I were to move somewhere else (if you guys have any ideas to bring them along, I would love to know). However, I feel like staying here will only make the wound fester and make it hurt even more when I eventually HAVE to move.
Because of all this, I am increasing the priority of moving. This will definitely affect my release schedule, and I apologize, but every time I press the publish button, I actually feel terrible now.
The moving of websites at first, I thought would be in 2 months or so, and maybe even stay if things got better, so the priority was low, only affecting the schedule lightly…but now…
Anyways, just wanted guys to let you know in case you were wondering why I am not releasing chapters when they are supposed to.
Any suggestions are welcomed!

I mentioned it before but i'd be willing to help you set up/vreate your own site and then you'll just have to host it somewhere. I'd recommend One as they are pretty cheap.
If you do it this way you'd get complete control over everything and won't have to worry about ashats like WP.
As always thank you so much for what you do reigokai, please do whatever you feel you need to do. Been reading for years and I certainly thank you deserve all the income they arent providing.
Hello, I don't really know much about it, but I think you can move the whole website to bluehost for "free", it requieres a subscription plan I think it is 10 dollar per month, I don't know if it was suggested before but here a link anyway
https://www.bluehost.com/
I am one of those that don't comment normally, but I been reading you for almost 5 years, it will be a big loss for us if this places desapears, I hope that even if this doesn't help, you can find a solution that is suitable for you, thank you for your hard work (お疲れ様でした)
Sorry bro i have problem with blue host that you need to know they have bad costomer service and down time if you not a pro or try ing new hosting i suggest you chose another provider i love hostinger cheap and reliable most importantly they have good costomer service that will response in Less then 3 minutes guarantee but you need to buy service first and they will do set up for you or fix you trouble trust me they are very provisional just one minus they usually have hidden cost for free stuff like ssl and cludflare integration but overall they still cost lest then most providers
Huh? how do they even make sure the traffic is human? i re-read a lot of tsuki ga michibiku isekai douchuu, not just once in a while, but whenever i have free time
Do what needs to be done, we will always be here waiting and willing to help the ways we can
i think you need put captcha on comment section
Whatever happens, we will be behind you. I hope this helps relieves the stress.
How about asking out LNT(lightnovelstrasnlations.com)
A handful of other translations I'm following migrated and have their translations there.
or light novel bastion, I assume he knows them cuz yoshi did the side stories(or maybe chaps when regokai was absent) there
Didn’t they just purchase their own domain from Wordpress?
Really sucks you are dealing with issues when you are paying for the site. Don’t blame you for wanting to move and when it happens I’ll follow to the new site. Sucks the releases will be effected but sure most people will understand.
As a constant lurker of the site and a grateful reader, I want to first say thanks for all the translations you provide.
As someone with sysadmin background I would like to offer the following advice.
1) [!IMPORTANT!] Migrate your domain to your own registrar. This is the most important thing to do as it will allow you to maintain ownership of the reigokaitranslations.com domain for whatever hosting provider you choose to move to.
I personally use https://Domains.Google (and others) and would suggest it as it has a pretty easy to use interface, but it is up to you. Many people use godady or others.
Note that when you transfer your domain out, you will have to pay for at least 1 year at the new registrar; Google charges $12 for com domains. I do not know if WordPress charges you extra for the domain, but this will be a (new?) yearly bill you will need to pay, but it is better to own your domain directly than let another company hold you hostage.
See the following for how to transfer your domain out of WordPress.com. This does not mean you will stop using WordPress.com, but it will give you complete ownership of the domain name.

2) Once you have your domain under your control, you will need to remap back to WordPress.
WordPress provides instructions to do so, but they take over as your name servers, which is annoying.
I would just create the required A Records:
@ A 192.0.78.24
@ A 192.0.78.25
see the following if using google domains: https://support.google.com/domains/answer/9211383?hl=en&ref_topic=9018335
3) [Optional] Setup CloudFlare as a DDoS protection and CDN (this might help you with the current issue you are facing with WordPress.com). You can use others, but CloudFlare is free for personal use and has a very good track record. Also note that this will take over the name servers as well, making step 2 moot, but a required step anyway.

and: https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/227634427-Using-Cloudflare-with-WordPress
4) As stated above, if/when you migrate off of WordPress.com, if you are still going to use a WordPress site hosted elsewhere, then do your backup, restore, etc.
Lastly, if you do decide to proceed with the registrar migration and other steps and wish for help, I can make myself available; be it email, google hangouts, google meet, etc. I am on Pacific Time, but can make most times work regardless as covid-19 has me working from home.
