Nothing beats Bluehost when it comes to speed and support
For my forums at https://community.centminmod.com/ been using Linode 8GB 4CPU KVM VPS plan running my Centmin Mod LEMP stack with Nginx + PHP 7 (with PGO enabled) PHP-FPM + MariaDB MySQL since almost the start of the forum in 2014 so 5yrs this month Ample resources, only went with higher Linode plan for disk space but extra memory is very useful for various cache implementations across the serverI would like to know what hosting company everyone is using, and what kind /size/cost of package they are on.
well, what world are you living in if you have not heard of Bluehost after their terrible ads targeting !!!I can honestly say I have never heard that before
Haha, and I assume altavista is your go-to search engine?Nothing beats Bluehost when it comes to speed and support
Well, in the case of my forum, it was. Basically because with a managed hoster, I had too many restrictions and choices foisted upon me that crimped what I could do with my forum. For example, being able to install ImageMagick, or Elasticsearch, or getting close to the limitations on inode count, or database size restriction......or wanting to run a more current version of php or apache than a managed hoster allows. Or file upload size restrictions for images.So if I would save $40 per month by switching, and my time is worth $40, would it be worth it?
you win!!Haha, and I assume altavista is your go-to search engine?
Apart from just a regular vps instance, ideally options for content spaces, CDN, load balancers, dedicated backends for DB, private networking, kubernetes clusters. All things I don't use for my own site but they're all there if needed At minimum the ability to extend SSD storage or attach block/space storage.what would you guys want to see in a hosting package that maybe you usually dont?
You want to make sure that the server attachment size is big.what would you guys want to see in a hosting package that maybe you usually dont?
With a VPS or dedicated server, this is easily changed. With shared, the host would need to change it: submit a support request.You want to make sure that the server attachment size is big.
Hetzner. Don't think anyone can beat them for unmanaged. Probably the best EU company. (Prices shown are without VAT though)

And if you need more disk space, you pay extra 4€/100GB. You can scale up your storage with any plan however you want (0.4€/10GB).
