More-expensive providers go down too. I would never put all my hosting eggs in 1 provider basket. That is asking for trouble. Even big-names like AWS can go dow

- JohnTHaller 13y agoTrue, but more expensive providers have better SLAs. Take Rackspace, for instance. You pay A LOT for their services, but they have more incentive not to go down. They credit you 5% of your monthly fee for each 30 minutes of network downtime. So it isn't just their reputation on the line when an outage occurs. It's quite a bit of money, too.
