The Doctor needs a LAMP host

Hey y'all,

Need a good, solid, not-going-to-go-out-of-business-in-six-months hosting company for some PHP/MySQL code.

The last joint I hosted with went under after about a year, and left me and my little stable of website clients high and dry.

Let me know what options you'd recommend...

And, keep in mind that I'm a long-time Moderator on Devshed


Thanks...

- DrGroove

For now, looking for support for this platform:
php 4 and 5
mysql5
perl

w/ roughly this much space:
20gb DB / harddrive
multiple databases (unlimited would be best, as long as I'm w/in the designated space, there shouldn't be restrictions on the # of databases I create)

with the ability to point as many domain names to the account as I'd like.


not certain bandwidth/mo, or even how to begin assessing that.


I'm starting off w/ a very small project, but planning on growing over the next 6 to 12 months. So, I'll need the option to increase storage, bandwidth, etc as needed. I'd rather not have my account blocked if I exceed storage or bandwidth - if I go over the limit, just bump me up to the next suitable account, and I'll start paying more / mo. If I get shutdown for bandwidth exceeds, I'll get pissed.

Hope this helps guide the discussion somewhat. Links to websites where I can review packages, # years you've been in business, uptime guarantees, # of employees on staff, etc would be helpful metrics from the hosters. I refuse to go through another nightmare scenario like I did with Norm Sherman at Netacore...


Thanks everyone!

Are you interested in shared hosting or perhaps a VDS? I.E. Can you manage your own server?

Can I manage my own server? Of course.
Do I have time to? No. None at all, actually.

Interesting.

Unfortunately, I think its best that the host be located state-side... thanks for the offer, though.

Any US-based hosting companies out there?
