Please help me in choosing web hosting - Treo Forum

Hi everyone,
I am sorry for possible offtopic, but I need your help in find new web hosting provider as soon as possible, because my current host (bluehost.com) is kicking me off, they say 'your account is using a lot server resources', but my website gets only about 200 visitors per day and my disk usage is 1500 MB (maybe they do not like that?)

Anyway, what would be your recommendations for getting reliable web hosting? Where are you hosting your websites? Are you happy with your providers?

I am now checking Hosting24.com - First Class Web Hosting Services - offer looks very nice, but is it real that they can provide unlimited disk space?
I have contacted them about this question and they say something that "These days 500GB disk drive costs only $30 per month, so if some day we will run out of disk space we will simply add new 500GB disk drive with almost zero costs and you can continue uploading without any problems".

What do you think about it? Maybe things have changed in last 4 years? With my current provider I get only 2GB of disk space for $10 per month..
Any ideas and suggestions are much appreciated.

That's very expensive..you may try routehost.com or http://lovinghosting.con for cheaper and more reliable services.

I use inmotion hosting (have for years). For $119.00 / year, I get unlimited space and 6 add-on domains. Love their cpanel, absolute server reliability, and, above all, their customer support has never had me on hold for more than about 30 seconds. They're competent and patient.
Besides my own commercial website, I also FTP a lot of stuff back and forth with Resco Explorer (on my 650.........I usually do bulk file / folder transfers on my notebook with Filezilla). email comes through my website without a hitch (Snappermail's my favorite client.......love the layout and, from what I can tell, it's functionally is the same as Chattermail until you get to push email, which you don't want to use on a Treo without having it connected to a small nuclear power plant stripped from a US Navy sub). The servers are fast.
Give them a looksee.

BTW, OxyGen.............. Welcome to Treonauts !!!
