    In the last week my website has had major downtimes. Once an 8.5 hour stretch.

    Any suggestions for web hosts that provide better uptime? $10 a month should be ok.

    Its depend on what kind of website you host.

    If you using WP then I would suggest webfaction dot com as I hosted with them so far no problem.

    I would recommend Bluehost or Hostgator.

    I've used Hostgator and Godaddy, and have never had an issue with downtime, however the godaddy control panel is very impractical.
