Need Reliable Hosting Company

    I have been with the same host for about a year and it was just a private one, nothing big at all. The host was great and provided good support but prices were a little higher. However, in Decemeber, it seems the server was having problems hosting my site due to the bandwidth and it wasn't a great experience on my end. This month, I switched to Hostgator since I use them for my other sites but they only allow 200 emails an hour and I need to send out way more than that.

    My question is does anyone know of a good hosting company that has the following:

    Proven track record
    At least 500GB plan/month with room to grow
    At least 10GB storage
    I only host one domain on it
    The ability to send out at least 10,000 emails in bulk is necessary

    If anyone knows of a company, please let me know! I am desparte to get a decent host and the email thing is killing me this month!

    The email limit is very common and I'd recommend looking into a separate mass emailing/newsletter processing solution.

    I agree... Constant Contact seems to be pretty popular.

    I use and am an affiliate for HostGator.com. Not sure on the mass mailing part, but they have been reliable for me and anyone that I have sent to them.

    Thanks everyone for all the recommendations. I ultimately went with a VPS plan through HostIcan since they offered a lot and is what I was looking for.

    you may need a vps or a low cost dedi for it.
    knownhost.com is pretty reliable for vps and really great support

    eliterax.com and versaweb.com are good for dedicated servers and super fast deployments.
    with free features/addons!

    i can ofer you rebate on these as well if you desire.

    I use hostgator and I just throttle the email so it sends out the proper amount during an hour so I don't get banned. You can have 10k emails sent out in 48 hours or so. That's not too bad and very easy to set up. If you need help, just ask.
