I started looking for a Webhost May 2005. I looked at many host. and July 7, 2005 I decided on Surpass Hosting and have been very happy with them thus far.
I started out with a standard plan they had of $4.95 a month. That dose not exist any more but they do have many good shared, reseller, VPS, dedicated and collocation plans in place.
November 2005 I upgraded to a plan called OC5 a shared hosting plan you pay for my the year. No monthly plan. It is though a very good deal for what you get. For a price of $59.00 yearly. Have been most happy with this plan. I have my main domain on this and my 2ed on a addons setup available in the package.
In the next month to 3 months I may even upgrade again. Just not sure what I plan to do yet. But it will either be to go up to the reseller package OC10 which can also be used to maintain many of your own domains in one plan not just be a reseller. So a nice option for those who maybe have 2 or more domains they have in active use. Or I may go with VPS just not sure yet. Have to examine my needs.
But I do recommend Surpass Hosting as a webhost to anyone looking for a good webhost their for the customer on many levels.

Well back in May I did jump in and go for VPS. Not to bad at all. Dose not have the power I was expecting and there is some goofy mystery resource use now and then server side but I can live with it for what I am using it for. Some static sites and 2 forums now.
Just spending $45 a month for the plan I am on and getting allot of nice toys. WHM, cPanel and all that. 15 GB Space with 500 GB Bandwidth and this is a Managed VPS.
If your not ready for a dedicated box and not a power user and a shared plan just dose not fit your needs I would say go for a Surpass VPS.

After this last jump to VPS just had one issue after another it seemed. Service was no near as good as the first year. I would drop a support issue for a problem and often be told no problem found. Shoot if I had no problem I would not have wasted my time. Just can not go on any more. Not happy with the VPS and don't feel like down grading and don't need a dedicated so just dropping web hosting all together. Was a educational ride but time to move to the next page what ever that may be. I just hope others have better luck and service with Surpass than I had. 1st year awesome, 2ed year poor and last 6 months just OK.
