    I have had amazing customer service from them and awesome performance from their servers.

    I have 1 dedicated (non-managed) and 1 dedicated+managed from them

    Why dont you get a VPS instead? Directory sites don't require much power and resources...so using a dedi box would just be costly with no performance benefits over VPS.

    Are you sure, you need dedicated server for directory.. I can suggest you check some of the following hosts:

    asmallorange.com
    hostgator.com
    hostmaven.com
    budgetreseller.com

    U do not have to go for dedicated cause it will need server admin, lots of resource wastage like excess bw, space etc. lots of cost . Just choose a better reliable host. Ask around at dp few hosts lurk at dp too :).

    Cheers

    If you want to host directories only,shared host is enough imo.

    I don't think you require a separate host just for a directory. At one time, I was hosting 50+ directories with hostgator without any problems :)

    If you want to stay with dedicated hosting then i couldn't recommend anyone but if you choose shared hosting i recommend hostgator, so far at least.

    just find a reliable host

    www.qoozz.com << have been using them for a long time and its going very good.

    HostGator is doing good tooo..

    so these are some companies which are reliable and i dont think you want a server for a directory and if you want it than you probably want different C-Class IP for each because people wouldn't want to buy link on Same IP you kno.

    I have my few sites + Directory on HostingZoom

    I dont see a reason to get a Dedicated boz just for a directory. (unless you are planning something like Dmoz ;) )

    So far, they are The Best for me :) ...... (Have tried 2 others)
