    For europe I use eurovps.com, it also has a nice ping in most of USA (Europe ping = 30ms, USA= around 120 ms)

    I try to test the speed with: host-tracker.com, it tests the download speed of a host at different locations around the world.

    Why more than one hosting account when hosting companies offer unlimited site packages under $ 10. Please let me know. I can't understand.

    Maybe you have more traffic, or more CPU grinding, than a cheap shared host will allow. Maybe you need more control, or better reliability. Maybe you need geographic diversity. I spend several thousand dollars a month on hosting spread across multiple vendors, and it's worth every penny.

    Hostgator is nice, but they are pretty strict with the TOS. Used them for half a year.

    I wrote their support with a pre-sales question. Basically I said that "unlimited" anything is BS, and I wanted to know what the real restrictions are. They wrote back and said the number of iNodes (whatever the hell that is... processes??) is limited, and you can't use a certain % of ram for more than 90 seconds at a time, or the account will be suspended.

    inodes are files and directories. If you hardlink a file multiple times, it only counts as one inode.
