    Who are you currently using to host your site and why?

    I am using HostGator. I use them because my sites speed is awesome and I love their support :)

    WiredTree, because I needed managed hosting. Started on a VPS with them, transferred to a dedicated almost a year ago.

    Always wanted a dedicated but their a lot. Wiredtree VPS's are a bit expensive compared to others, But their dedicated seem worth it including what they also configure the server with, And fully managed too.

    I use VPSLatch for my VPS, Cheap but service is amazing.

    We use Global Gold for our hosting on MK3OC, we have a VPS with them and they are very good, support is quick and efficient (when needed). We have had very little downtime in the time we have been with them. And a huge advantage for us was that they are UK based as we have speed problems when we used non-UK based hosts.

    WebzPro for one forum and just signed up with Namecheap, I'm hoping they're OK.

    Namecheap is not good for hosting, only for domains.

    I use WestHost because it's cheap, reliable, and fast. They guarantee over 88% uptime with their tier 3 datacenter.

    Justhost is not really good you can research them, after your site gets real active and popular... it will get laggy, and slow. They might even suspend your account as they are known to be trigger happy.

    I use VPS Latch for our VPS and then Hawk Host for our backup reseller. Both offer awesome services :cool:

    Yea I know, good choice, especially when they run decent promotions. Otherwise I'd probably still be stuck on crappy VPS & reseller providers as both services had ongoing promotions, which made me choose them :cool:

    I thought you guys strayed away from VPS Latch for some reason or other; or is this another VPS company I'm thinking of?

    HawkHost.

    I needed to get out of HostGator (which can't even give me a 128M memory limit) and all of a sudden, I had cash in my hands.
