Ok guys, I need some suggestions on good Web Hosting services. Mine, Featureprice.com seems to be going bellyup.
Reasonable prices, reasonable bandwidth limits, and preferabley NOT a year long contract is what I'm looking for. With the volatility of these types of companies, I do not want to pay for a year and end up with only a few months of service before the company dies.

Last month I move from a dying featuerprice.com to http://www.f5hosting.com. I was hesitant to move to a new host, not knowing the potential problems I would encounter with a new hosting company. With so many to chose from, I decided to email 3 hosting companies (on a Saturday) with questions about operating a vBulletin Board. Only one hosting company responded in a timely and answered all of my questions. F5hosting.
No setup fees, you can pay month to month. The server has not been down one time in 6 weeks.
I made the right choice. I’m amazed with the incredibly fast support response and outstanding customer service! I couldn’t ask for more.

Go to ICDSoft.com. Seriously. It's a month to month contract. If you don't at least try them, you are missing the boat. They have great features, and very good price.
The longest I've had to wait for a reply to a support ticket was 10 minutes. DAY OR NIGHT! Heck, they'll even set you up for free if you ask them to.
So, at least go check out http://www.ICDSOFT.com
And no, I don't get a kickback. I've just used a bunch over the years, including FeatureCrap. This is by FAR the best host I've ever had.
**sniff** I think I'm in love.

I use hostsave.com and have been real happy with them. The rates are cheap (7.95 a month), you get 150 megs of space and 7.5 GB a month transfer. I really like them because they offer full Perl services. It's month to month as well, no year long contracts.
