I also had some other sites on the same account which were also getting good amount of traffic with Technix Update, due to which site server went down. I got a notice from the hosting account that your site has caused our shared server to get down twice a day, please remove your site from this shared account or upgrade to $40 VPS account.
As per the revenue in overall I generate I can afford the VPS account charges, but as I have never tried or used VPS servers till now I was quite not sure to move to VPS. So, I decided to move the blog to a good bandwidth account at hostgator. By this time my hosting has suspended TechnixUpdate.com on my account, but all other sites on my account were up and running

Now, the next thing was to request my hosting to unsuspend So, that I can take the backup which they responsded quickly. I started taking the backup of database first with PhpMyAdmin as my host did not support SSH access with which backing the database could have been simple.
I took the database backup through PhpMyAdmin by exporting the current db by exporting the my sql db as long Insert query, which i tested many times and failed to import. I was making a mistake by not selecting the final sql file as gzipped due to which size of the sql exported every time was high and not all the queries added for creating all the previous tables, I am planning to make a post on the same soon then i would tell the problem and solution in detail.
