DreamHost = peace of ****. I stayed with them for 6 months, roughly 4 of which were down...

Currently, I am using www.BeTheHost.com - I have two sites hosted there and there was only one outage for the past two years that I am hosted. The support is awesome, too. And they do daily backups.

I'm with Servint right now, paying $50 a month for the Essential VPS plan. The service is great and support is amazing!

You guys must work for be affiliated with 1&1! It is well known that 1&1 is one of the worst hosts around. Don't believe me? Check out all the complaints at consumer organizations like the Better Business Bureau! ;)

A general rule of thumb, if it seems to good to be true, it probably is.

I don't know of a single company that will actually *give* you a *full* 25-50GB's of disk space and 100GB, 500GB or 1TB of bandwidth on shared hosting package. Needless to say, you wouldn't even be able to push 500GB-1TB of bandwidth on a shared server as you'd load it up so much it'd crash.

The offers like the above are there only to reel you in. When you're in, you begin to notice downtime, service interuptions, downtime, server issues, high loads, etc.

Think about it, do you honestly think they could afford to pay their support tech's if customers actually used their quotas? They'd be out of business quicker than a dropped rock would hit the ground.

Large companies no doubt get discounts on bandwidth, however I don't forsee .01/GB pricing or even .10GB pricing, even from Cogent.
