- byoung2 16y agoI've been politely asked to leave 3 different shared hosting companies. Most advertise unlimited disk space and bandwidth, but they never offer unlimited CPU cycles or disk I/O. For the past two years, I've been hosting with Rackspace Cloud (Cloud Sites, Cloud Files, and Cloud Servers). Cloud Sites is nice because it scales with demand, and there is no upper limit to CPU cycles. The one caveat is that the databases don't scale (basic master/slave setup), so you'll have to go heavy on the caching for DB based sites. This tradeoff is worth it to me because I don't have to worry about server administration or scalability. http://www.rackspacecloud.com/?id=605 http://www.rackspacecloud.com/?id=605
- ra 16y agoSlicehost share out CPU cycles based on the size of the VPS. e.g. a 521MB VPS has 2x the CPU of a 256MB VPS. They also do 64bit distros, which may help your CPU load. I assume you have investigated where that CPU goes and consider refactoring, caching etc.
- v4us 16y agoI use thishosting.com . I'm not sure that the standrat planes are situated for you, but this Guys are doing their job very well! So, check it up!
- ptm 16y agoI use ASmallOrange (shared), Prgmr (VPS) and App engine for hosting my sites. At 60K alexa, you should really be looking at a VPS.
- adora 16y ago+1 app engine. It's pretty great.
- slig 16y agoFor generic sites(wordpress, forums, clients websites, etc), which run php/mysql, I use liquidweb. For custom applications, I use and recommend Linode.
- MDX 16y agoWe use the exact same 2 hosting companies. I can't say enough good things about Linode :)
- shadowz 16y agoI second Liquidweb. We've used them for over a year now and our servers runs like a champ. I'm actually going to test their new cloud product, Storm On Demand, soon. Hope it's also awesome.
- markkoberlein 16y agoI use Cloud Servers on Rackspace Cloud. You have to know how to setup a server but the per hour costs are pretty good.
