Our web host for Oakland Local is flaking on us bit time, so I asked for recommendations that people liked. Here's what I have so far:
- Dharmishta @susanmernit I <3 mediatemple--I've called them day and night and they're always helpful.
- bLaKtivist @susanmernit Hey NY transplant :)
- webhostinghelp @susanmernit I host with loads of companies and can help u pick the right one for you. How many sites do u have to host?
- Gotekky @susanmernit Hi Susan, sorry to hear that. Take advantage of our holiday vps specials to try us out, 30 moneyback http://gotekky.com/vps.htm
- pearlbear @susanmernit Slicehost is our favorite. Linode is good. As is Rackspace Cloud servers.

I've been using BlueHost and their customer service is pretty good. My second go-to is DreamHost.

We
use a smaller firm named Contegix for some of our mission-critical
stuff. They're quite pricey but support and up-time are top-notch.

I've had good experiences thus far with WebFaction and Slicehost. You can launch a site almost immediately with WebFaction as they have application installers for most content management systems, and Slicehost has better tiered resource offerings.
I am a Racker and would be happy to point you in the right direction! @eganskinner - Twitter. Our Cloud/Slicehost offering is great, as is our dedicated managed hosting suite. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions!
