Planned Maintenance and Server Changes

We are doing a thorough clean up of our servers and moving to our new hosting providers. Due to this, the site may temporarily be unavailable to you. As this also involves a change in our name servers, the unavailability would be experienced across different times across different locations during the course of the 36 hours due to DNS propagation time.

The new servers would help us serve pages faster thus reducing your wait time. This would also help us serve more users simultaneously.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused.

Thanking you for your continued support
Placement-Paper.com Team

[Update - 12th Feb 10, 20.00 Hrs: The migrations have been completed successfully.]
