After recovering from the largest Distributed Denial of Service attack in the service’s history yesterday morning, blog host WordPress.com was attacked again very early this morning, finally stabilizing its service at 11:15 UTC (around 3:15 am PST).

WordPress.com serves 18 million sites, many of them news sites which lead some to conjecture that the attacks had come from the Middle East, a region experiencing its own Internet issues at the moment. Automatic founder Matt Mullenweg said that 98% of the attacks over the past two days originated in China with a small percentage coming from Japan and Korea.

WordPress.com doesn’t know exactly why the site was targeted and won’t reveal the name until it does.

Mullenweg said the recent attacks have impacted not just WordPress.com sites; other servers in the same part of the network also caused outages. WordPress.com is collaborating with upstream providers to shift the attacks, TechCrunch reports.
