Getting fed up with asmallorange
 

Hello,

My site has been going down constantly.

I have a Joomla frontend and Vbulletin backend. Using bbpixel to link the two databases. I have average of 5000 hits a day and max of about 200 concurrent users.

My hosting plan is enterprise@$135/month.

Any recommendations for alternatives pleas?

VPS is still consider as another shared hosting except with a little more resource that can handle than a regular shared host.

It's time to move to a dedicated server.

for $135/m you can get a nice/decent Dedicated server...

Any recommendations?

Softlayer.com

I've been with asmallorange for three years on lowly shared hosting, my stats are slightly less than yours but not significantly and my total accumulated downtime over those 3 years (due to them) is about 2 hours.

I'd request moving to a different server is all.

I think it's time for you to move on to a dedicated since your forum is huge. I can hook you up with a great and best host but the question is, how much is your budget? Are you willing to pay for something that is even higher than $250/monthly?

$250/Month ? can you give us some server specs ?

I use dediwebhost.com and only pay $95 per month for mine with cpanel and WHM. I love it, and the server uptime has been great. I admit, though, I use PlatinumServerManagement for support and security.
