 * I have upgraded from Mailpoet 2 to Mailpoet 3 this week, initially for one day
   I ran it through my site but on receipt of my key, I ran it through you as recommended.
   Since then my Webhosting CPU Time Usage has kept exceeding the allowance causing
   my website to be taken down. Siteground said it was because of Mailpoet.
 * At the moment I only have 10 subscribers (most people follow using social media)
   so I am sending 10 email 3 times a week.
 * They suggested I change plugins or remove the Chron?
 * I am a capable computer user but I am not a programmer so I’m not sure what they
   mean by the Chron.
 * Do you have any suggestions how I can continue to use Mailpoet 3?

 * Hi [@susanpearson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/susanpearson/),
 * Since you’re using Siteground, you should read this article [http://beta.docs.mailpoet.com/article/131-hosts-which-mailpoet-task-scheduler-wont-work](http://beta.docs.mailpoet.com/article/131-hosts-which-mailpoet-task-scheduler-wont-work)
   and then follow the steps to use the “Visitors to your website” option

 * Thank you, I originally saw that but because I have limited users at the moment
   I read it to mean I would have to go to the site at 6 pm to trigger it to send.
   For now, I have swapped back to my previous email program. But may well come 
   back to Mailpoet down the line as I grow a bit and will remember this option.
   
   Thanks
