    If members can post who they host with and reliability that would be great.

    I hope members dont mind but could help others looking for reliable hosting solutions.

    We run our own servers and host a few customers on these, very rarely get an issue.

    If you have a number of sites, why not get a small dedicated or a reasonable VPS and remove the host from the loop?

    I've got a dedicated server with Krystal. No issues, although still new, only been with them for a couple of months.

    I've been with http://www.webhost.uk.net/ for coming up to 2 years.

    Shared plans and then a vps. Reliability/uptime is very good along with support.

    I've got a VPS with CWCS which has excellent support (live chat/ticket/email) and one with Rackspace. The CWCS server hasn't been down once in two years, which is incredible.

    I have had a hosting account with fasthosts for ages. It is really underused and I should have cancelled it sometime ago but never got around to it.

    Decided today to add fasthosts hosting for a few domains. What a pain in the ass the control panel is.

    Which reliable host has the simplest control panel ?

    Have a cloud account with TSOhost & they have been very good

    Also have a reseller account with Clook, started off well but over the last 6-9 months they have gone downhill big time. Would avoid now

    depends on needs

    for a money site unitedhosting.co.uk very fast out of the box 03 .00 and managed

    junk filter is great on mail and they have great firewall

    £!20 with own ip silver package

    Heartinternet.co.uk has a good re seller account

    and is reliable ,


    xilo.net ok but have had problems with sites being compromised

    Site 5 are good but not been with them that long


    have got sites at all of the above united is best and most helpful


    best of luck :)
