HostRocket (http://www.hostrocket.com) is having a gig-sale and roll-over bandwidth check them out.

www.viperhost.com

www.rackshack.net and www.viperhost.com

But like sabe said - webhostingtalk.com is BY FAR the best resource for questions like this (which are asked here regurlarly too btw )

None of the suggestions so far are useful to you, sc4r3d, because you haven't said what you're looking for in a host. Are you looking for quality bandwidth? Great support? Phone support? 99.9% Uptime? Uncrowded servers? A reputable established company (2 yrs +) ?

We need to know these things first .

From personal experience, I wouldn't recommend Viperhost.

If you post a request on www.webhostingtalk.com you're bound to get some very good offers.

That shouldn't be done either. 90% of the time, there's just a load of random hosts surfing the requests forum, most are not reliable.

Look at the web hosting forum, read posts. All the things you need to know about hosts is in there .

Reliablility doesn't come cheap. If you're not willing to spend a reasonable amount monthly you won't get decent service, it's as simple as that.

If you don't have a lot to spend, asking for offers is the way to go - after people offer packages, search the forum to see what experiences people have had with them. (And pick the best one, obviously.)
