We have a few busy e-commerce websites and customers have now started to compain about loss of mysql conenctions etc whilst browsing. The busiest website also seems to be quite slow now at times. We're using the Netfirms Advantage plan with feature details shown here; http://www.netfirms.com/web-hosting/web-hosting-compare/ can someone please recommend a solution for us..our contract with netfirms runs out soon. Please post your best offers or advice here Thanks!
Our servers are fast, and we offer multiple domain hosting. We also provide you with your own mysql database instance, which means no more dropped connections and it can be tuned to your requirements. However we charge more than netfirms, and only offer 2GB of space and 20GB of transfer included in the plan. If you want an idea of the speed of our servers. visit our forums as we host them on our main webserver (http://forums.hostby.net) We may not be suitible for your needs however, so my other recommendations would go to twsites http://www.twsites.com/ or http://www.memset.co.uk/ if you are based in the uk
