Will VTOR need to move to another blog host?

Official news is out that BlogExplosion along with BlogCharm — which just launched — is for sale. I’ll say that again: BlogExplosion/BlogCharm/et al for sale now.

We have put our hearts and soul into BlogExplosion. It is our baby and we have poured our lives into this site. For members that have been with us for some time, you know we have done everything in our power to to make BlogExplosion the best site possible… But we are builders. We like to build new stuff. I am not sure we have the internal drive or motivation anymore to take it further as we have given it our best. We are very proud of what we have accomplished.

This might be one of the shortest “we just launched and now we’re selling” announcements in internet history. It’s the 7th of March and BlogCharm launched March 1! We’re not taking thie VTOR blog anywhere else yet, but from the beginning it has always been a possibility that we would need to move to a new blog home. Depending on how this shakes out, it might be sooner rather than later. On one hand I’m excited for the possibility of a buyout that would enhance the services and on the other I hope starting the blog on an experimental blog hosting service won’t turn out to be a mistake.
