I'm a web developer and designer. I have learned everything from experience. My teacher told that "learn from others experience", so I would like to share mine. You could learn from me :)

In 2005, I was searching a best hosting service which one can handle a high traffic website. At the same time, my economics didn't allow me to spend a huge amount for it. I was searching, reading reviews, monitoring uptimes, ... Actually, I was researching myself. At last I found this FastNext.com. Their hosting features particularly limited features (e.g: 3TB bandwidth, 300GB storage) all are impressed me. Because, I already known how a few services misuse the meaning of "unlimited". As Isaac Newton's saying, genius has limit. Yet I too hesitate about their support and service. Finally I signed up with a (inner) fear.

While sending payment, my bank faced problem, and the settlement delayed. But FastNext's billing department has really generous people. They started their hosting service on time. It was amazed me! Because, I'm in India, they are in UK!

And then, I could understand they are a great team. I had contacted the support team for a few problems like a CMS installation, apache configuration, backup. They helped me within a day!

Now 2011! I still stick with them. I have not had any problems in hosting service, speed, domain management, support, transfer, billing, software upgrade, ... all are going smooth! If we seek a minus point at them, it may be their homepage theme! IMHO, they should upgrade a web2.0 styled theme :)

I always recommend them for my friends and relatives. A really great hosting service at affordable price.
