hey guys Im in a dilemna as my current host has shut me off and I need to get my site back up and running ASAP.. this is what I need..
Approx 500megs
Between 50-100gigs per month bandwith
PHP and mySQL
Server strong enough for 150 active users at a time
6000+ member base
I dont think Im leaving anything out.. Ive looked around and around and around again and cant find anything.. I need to know the cheapest place with reliable service that I can find this..

I dont know if I need dedicated server or not.. I dont think the site requires the strength of a dedicated server as it appears to run fine on a shared server but the bandwith requirements are killing me.. For what most hosts want to charge for the bandwith I could be on a dedicated server. I just need an idea of what price is good and where to get it..

yes, you will need a dedicated server with +150 members online, thats why they kicked you out ;)
try www.venturesonline.com or www.verio.com

Try www.he.net, I hear they have a decent setup. Also, www.nacio.com if you are in the bay area.
BTW, I have never used either nor shall I gain from either choices.

You might want to consider a Virtual Dedicated Server.
Do a search on the forums at http://www.webhostingtalk.com for "VDS" or "Virtual Dedicated Server" for more info.

http://www.rackshack.com provides dedicated servers and is probably going to be more in your price range than the hosts posted above.
Though if you can afford it VenturesOnline.com would be the absolute best to go with.
