Looking for new host

[setishock]

2 weeks later and NinjaLion is still not responding to emails or phone calls. I found which server farm has their servers but was told the NinjaLion servers are managed by someone else and there was really noting they could do. ^%%#^%*&)()(*(^^$$%$#!!!
Ok so after getting to the files from the FTP end I made copies of the important stuff. That's every little thing to those that run forums.
I am resolved to having to start from scratch. More &%%^%$#^%*&^!!!
In the mean time I have WAMP set up on my laptop and have been playing around with 4.1.11.
Interesting stuff.

Ok I'll cut to the chase. I'm in the market for a new host that I can pay by the year. I don't need a lot of room as this is just a hobby endeavor. If after 4 years of dinking around with this it should happen to take off, I'd have a stroke and fall flat dead in my tracks. (Ok you can get off the floor and quit laughing)
I've been reading reviews that say be wary of unlimited this and that. Jeeze I'd rather listen to what you guys and gals have to say. So please would y'all point me in the direction of a great host that some of you use? Nothing fancy, shared will do.
Thanks
Seti

I am with www.site5.com for the past 5 years, i won't say they are cheap. But they are reliable & their support is awesome. Never had problems with them so far. They get 5 stars from me. Also they have a 30 day free trial for you to try.

PS: IF you want my affiliate link pm me

vBulletin.com has a forum for discussing vBulletin Web Hosts: https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/foru...osting-Options

I use http://www.ufhosting.org/ never had an issue with them. Not a big hosting company but forum hosting is their specialty.

I use www.urljet.com but if your looking for a cheaper host try http://www.mddhosting.com/

I did my research and they basically offer the same great service. Good reviews for them both.

Try host1free. They're pretty good and offer paid hosting at a good price!

I work with HostGator. Have a reseller account and also a VPS for my admin forum (the job board requires a VPS). Overall pleased with them. The support is pretty OK and you can chat with them, so it doesn't take them a lifetime to respond.

Heard good things about Hostgator as well.

If it's really small and not a lot of usage. Dreamhost. Yeah they oversell, but we've been there with some high traffic (not resource intensive) sites for over a year and never had a problem.

And at 9.95 for an entire year... you can't beat it.

There are many bad reports about Hostgator.

They have a reputation as one of the worst organizations to remove scammers and fraudsters from their sites.

I personally had a very bad experience with them. I would recommend that you look elsewhere for hosts.

If you work with them maybe you could ask them why they are so reluctant to remove obvious scammers and spammers when they are reported to them ? In this regard their reputation is abysmal.

I understand they have a lot of complaints that have been sent to ICANN and more are in the pipeline.
