Webkinz Site Troubles Fixed!

There was a bigtime overload on the Webkinz website on the 26th of December. The site was down due to major traffic on the two busy days following Christmas, when new Webkinz owners were eager to log in and register their plush toys!

According to newsday.com, Ganz' director of operations, Elaine Parsons said the site ran into a "programming issue that was unforeseen". Since the site had been having problems off and on for that Thursday, it was taken down at 3:30PM to fix the problems. It was back up and operating at 4PM Friday.

Other popular websites such as Sears, Land's End and Walmart.com reported problems in the days following Christmas, so it wasn't just Webkinz!

Bad timing for this trouble, but luckily everything is now working in the land of Webkinz!
