Looking for a new host.

I am looking for a new host for my vBulletin forums. I would like one that is fast, reliable, and with good customer/technical support. SSH access is a HUGE Plus.
Gonna have a few other things so I need at least 5 gigs of web space, and a nice chunk of bandwidth wouldn't hurt. I have about 50 active members and my site is growing. My budget is 10-15 bucks a month. I can maybe spring to $20 if it looks well worth it.

Can you all reccommend me a good host(s) that might work for me?

Thanks in advance.

You want 5-10% of the harddrive for 20 bucks a month? I doubt you are going to find reliable hosting at that price for what you want.

Well, I was kind of looking at this plan from RealWebHost, http://c.net/hosting.php . Anyone have any experience from them, and know if they are good?

Also found a few cheaper VPS's, but dunno if I can fit them in the budget. What do you guys think of these ones?

Before choosing a webhost i do suggest you research if there are any user experiences posted at either vbulletin.com or webhostingtalk.com

Ive been doing some research and I think as far as VPS solutions go I think I am going to go with PowerVPS. I just want to know which package would be sufficient for my site. I was thinking about getting the LINUX WEBMIN POWER-0 $25 dollar plan. I just want to know if any one else has this plan and would recommend it, or something better.

I wish I could afford $60 a month. Thanks anyways bashy.

Do you think thier June Special plan would be a good solution for me? It really sounds almost too cheap to be true.

visit www.webhostingtalk.com

asking for SSH access unjailed is something you wont find on a shared hosting account.. your best off going for a managed VPS. I suggest jaguarpc.com VPS (very affordable, and well managed). A shared host most likely will shut you down for using up too many resources on the server..
