I've been out of the game for a while. I'm looking to get a dedicated server and I'm not sure where I'd get the most bang for my buck. I prefer big and trusted sites, obviously.
If we're just making recommendations on all-around good providers, I would say WebNX. They have some crazy good deals on hardware in their Web Hosting Talk threads and the quality is really good.
check out webhostingtalk.com A bunch of incredible Dedicated servers there, and since they're competing against each other, you get amazing deals
WebNX is our exclusive west coast provider, and they have always been top-notch. They might be slightly more expensive than some companies out there, but you absolutely get what you pay for. Tickets are answered in a matter of minutes, etc. Our servers have literally had 100% network uptime for years. Have yet to have a piece of hardware fail.
I believe you should use Newpush services which are experienced and quality. You can get discount with coupon code qua7rtos1Myt!
I am 100% sure that Hostzealot.com is the best solution for you. It offers really nice cheap dedicated servers along with many useful features. Good communication and customer service is key to a great web-host, and it has these qualities in spades.
WebHostingTalk is a place where most host participate and you may consider to check out by opening a thread but becareful as WHT is much more sensitive. Since the @OP, prefer the big boy and trusted.
I recommend you Hosteasier.com servers. They are time-tested host with fast stable plans and 24/7 support.
