I started out with globat a while back, their service was kickass, uptime great as well.
Recently site has been slowing down to a standstill, things not working, getting a bunch of errors...something is always going wrong.
I have looked at site5.com, any other reasonable suggestions?

I want about 1.5-2gb of space at least, maybe 10usd a month or around there? mysql databses, php, subdomains would be great.

How large of a forum do you have? How many posts? Users online at a given time and per day?

You may also want to take a look at aperfectorange.com, surpass hosting, geekydesigns.com and 10for10.com

At one time, Lunarpages banned Vbulletin scripts. Might want to look elsewhere.

Hey there,

For a new host, I'd go for Dreamhost (http://www.dreamhost.com/). They have huge plans for something like 7.95 or w/e. The thing is, your account increments each day so bandwidth and disk space gets bigger no matter what. Also, unlimited domains registered, etc. Not too shabby. Um, I dunno if that's any help...

Try to search at www.webhostingtalk.com (http://www.webhostingtalk.com) for good hosts. You'll find lots of customers reviews there. Don't forget to use the search feature.

Dreamhost is NOT vbulletin friendly.
