how old is your last backup?

This site was backed up March 6th of this year.

SSL issue is on Trinicon
This forum is based on simplemachines software that uses php and a mysql database.
First i'd check how big is currently our database and how much disk space is currently taking the site.
I'm not in USA and you may find easier to check hosting services in your country
I had a rapid check and it seems Hostinger (.com) offers very good value per money solutions even with its base hosting solution (the one under the name "premium")
if I get it right it's a 25 gb hosting with all we need. multiple php versions, multiple mysql db, SSL unlimited bandwidth and 99,9% uptime guaranteed for 2,99$ a month
you can check other solutions here. Some of them are almost too good looking on paper. I'd try to find some more reference to confirm the validity

GlisGlis here are my email responses from Trinicom. His reply seems to imply I am to take some actions on my part but I dont see how?
Honestly, I dont know what most of this means. If someone could tell me what to do with my mouse and keyboard ill happily do it.
willie:
you got a big job ahead of you if you want to fix thing right. two different jobs really.
one is to update the server operating system to a version that supports the newest version of simple machines.
then you can reinstall and update the forum software.
there may be some catch-22s however if you try to do both at the same time on the same server
simple machines is an open source software project. they have a forum that supports their project and volunteers offer advice, much like what we do here for new bowyers. you might be able to find out at their forum https://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php how to best procede
