 * Hi,
    I’ve been suffering from intermittent 500 errors for about two weeks now.
 * I think I’ve narrowed it down to three things, but is there any way to know for
   certain? Any insight into which of these three it could be?
 * 1. This error message that is in my Go Daddy error log. There are tons and tons
   of messages that are identical or almost identical: **Request exceeded the limit
   of 10 subrequest nesting levels due to probable configuration error. Use ‘LimitInternalRecursion’
   to increase the limit if necessary. Use ‘LogLevel debug’ to get a backtrace.,
   referer [http://ericaobrien.com/blog/chocolate-holiday-trees-four-ways/](http://ericaobrien.com/blog/chocolate-holiday-trees-four-ways/)**
 * 2. This error message that is in my WordPress backend:
    **Warning: Creating default
   object from empty value in /home/content/06/11499706/html/blog/wp-content/themes/
   cleansale/ocmx/theme-setup/customize.php on line 596** The message above repeats
   for each line 596-626
 * 3. Too much traffic for Go Daddy? I get about 1,500 hits per day (when my site
   is actually working). Someone said I should switch to Managed WordPress, but 
   if the real problem 1 or 2 above, I don’t want to switch.
 * Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
 * Thanks so much!

 * Error #1: GoDaddy is well known as a low quality host; and this is a server error
   that is their issue, not yours. GoDaddy is also well known for intermittent 500
   errors.
 * Error #2: This is an error with your theme. That’s a premium/paid theme, so you
   need to get help from the theme developers. Googling that error leads to links
   in the forums at Obox Themes.
 * Error #3: Find a better host. See [Recommended WordPress Web Hosting](http://wordpress.org/hosting/)
