Hello, experienced vBulletin users,
I have recently decided to migrate my SMF forum to vBulletin. My site has around 500 members, and at peak hours, there are around 50 active users. I've been pretty satisfied with my current host, but I want a change, especially since I'm also changing to vBulletin. So, I need some recommendations. I've read the entire "recommendations" post and also searched for vBulletin hosting on WHTalk, but all to no avail. Finding a good web host is so frustrating, my eyes are popping out already. I've discovered that what people recommend are usually their own experience, not necessarily a very objective review of web hosts (e.g., average user satisfaction). This finding web host business is such a hassle, so if anyone (probably someone knowledgeable) could just point me a couple of reliable, popular web hosts that I simply can't go wrong with, can manage vBulletin, and is less than $200 / year, I would be very, very thankful.
I was very close to choosing Steadfast Networks, but I looked at their forum and found very few posts. Perhaps their support just isn't through the forum, or I am use to seeing a lot of posts on my own web host, who has a very effective discussion forum for all sorts of topics. I've also read some bad reviews about them on WHT. So in other words, I just need a really reliable / popular web host that's also affordable. There must one of these kind of providers out there, but I can't just find them!! Here's a customer waving at you! I think if I spend like a week reading WHT, I may have some idea, but that is just too time-consuming...
Thanks a lot for the help.
