I used to spend a lot of time at www.webhostingtalk.com and this would come up every now and again. There are quite a few companies who do this. The good thing about the business is that it seems to be heavily based on word of month. I remember a friend was looking for someone and I referred him to a place that kept being mentioned with comments like "Steve from XYZ is really good"

That's actually an issue I worry about. Sort of like how everyone's plumber is the best. I could be wrong but there's no good way to tell if a sysadmin is good. The sysadmins I know are the types where, if they're doing their job properly, you don't even know they are there or anything happened.
