Excellent, robust, cheap hosting (I use their Cloud Hosting but they do dedicated / managed etc as well), brilliant support - not just quick responses but also intelligent people on the other end of the line… also a great, usable, beautiful control panel. They’re also UK-based which I know makes a big difference to some people.
