Your web hosting provider?

I apologize for the possible off-topic. Guys, could you tell me which web hosting company you are using at the moment? I have a problem because my current web hosting company hostrator.com is kicking me off. They say that our website is using too many server resources. But our website only gets 300 visitors per day..

Anyway, what would be your recommendations? Are you happy with your web hosting providers?

I am checking Hosting24.com - First Class Web Hosting Services at the moment, but is it real that they can provide unlimited disk space?
I have contacted them and they say something like "1000GB disk drive costs only $30 per month, so if some day we will start running out of disk space we will simply add a new 1000GB drive so can continue uploading..".

What do you think about it? Any ideas and web hosting company name suggestions are much appreciated.

There are a lot of hosting services... try to find one for your needs. In case your site is not really big just use a hosting for $10-$20 cost per year. This can save your money. Then you can easily upgrade your hosting plan which will affect bandwidth and servers speed. Try to find servers placed in the US... still there are a lot of good hostings in Europe. It's up to you what to choose.

You might want to spead some time figuring out why the website is using too many server resources and what, is it a script bug or SQL querys, etc and if you can fix it or at least reduce the footprint. In the future with more member you will have major issues overwise and it would save on the upgrading.

Hostgator is quite good service for it's cost.

For me hostgator is doing fine, and ixweb hosting even better. But I must admit it, on HostGator, too many sites are packed on one little server, where some of them can be adult websites, that could kill your seo efforts.

I am actively looking for virtual private server hosting for game site. Does anyone have experience with VPS Virtual Private Server Cloud | UK / USA ?
