It's time for me to get a new host. Right now I've got a Gold Reseller account with Steadfast. ( http://steadfast.net/services/reseller.php ). I have connection problems with my sites several times a day. If I work on the site for half an hour, it's almost guaranteed that I won't be able to access it for 1-2 minutes during that time.

Currently I use about 300gb bandwidth/month. Traffic for all of my sites is 1500-2000 uniques per day.

I'd like to switch to a host with good support and reliable uptime. Somewhere that I have room to grow.CPanel is a plus. Unlimited domains is required. I'm not sure if I need a dedicated server yet or not. I've looked at a few sites, but I really don't know what is good and what isn't.

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I was looking at their site before I made my post. I don't really know what I need when it comes to hosting. They have so many packages. I also know nothing about managing a server.

Maybe a VPS with another company would be good enough for now. Based on the info I provided in the original post what do you think?

i would reccomend nexcess.net Ask to speak with Chris or Greg. I have referred a bunch of people from here to them. They are a fantastic company. If you speak with chris and let em know Michael from MoviesOnline sent you they will take good care of you. I send alot of business his way.

Any questions about nexcess ask. I can help, Westech here can also help. Its the first company I have ever referred people to and I have been with them for many years now.

I got a managed dedicated server with Nexcess. So far it's been great! I ordered it at about 5PM and they had it setup by 10:30PM. All support responses have taken less than 15 minutes via email. Many of them have been within 2 minutes.

I'm with Hostmysite.com... a big company that has near instant 24/7 customer service with people who speak/type good english.

They have unbelievable service for a cuople of my high traffic'd sites. I also have a VPS through them. Not cheap, but the instant customer service is why I'm with them.

Drupalvaluehosting.com is one of the web hosting companies that have many positive customer reviews. My own 6 months experience with their shared hosting lives up to the expectations, both in terms of uptime and customer support.
Here's what people were saying about them http://www.drupalvaluehosting.info/forums/dvh-user-raves
