Big time hosting?

    I've always gone with the little and cheap hosting, but pretty soon (well actually probably not for a few months) I'm gonna be looking for some real big, reliable and fast hosting.

    What do all the big daddy's use? I guess I'm gonna be looking at 500,000+ hits a month. I think reliability is more important than anything to me.

    Somebody suggested Site5. But for 110GB space, and 5TB bandwidth for $5 a month that seems a little unrealistic. I was expecting $30+ a month.

    Edit: Just noticed the catch on the 5$/month deal, you have to order for 2 years, but that's not a problem.

    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    If you're getting 500,000+ hits a month you probably should be looking at a dedicated server. Otherwise you're going to either have a slow site or end up being suspended. Shared environments are not too friendly to very large sites.

    if you really wanna use that and that also on site5 then you will be here again very soon, you will surely need an dedicated server to use that much. however 500,000 hits are not going to be a problem if you site isnt database intensitive :)
