Thanks Mik,

Actually there were 2 threads on the topic, discussing but not answering 
David's question:
And I've been meaning to expand on this because I am still looking for 
an answer.
Subjects:
             Hosting/Common logic after SiteGround"
             [Hidden-tech] Siteground does serious screwup of web sites

The discussion is at: http://lists.hidden-tech.net/pipermail/hidden-discuss/
Under Jan or Feb (view by thread)

The most common element is that hosting companies will all crater 
eventually as the market and technology change.
The most comprehensive answer was aimed at more 'serious' commercial 
sites that can justify.
        Rob Laporte explained that in details, although I don't quite 
agreed with some of the layers a quote he provides describes.

Also there were 2 lower end suggestions:
          hcoop.net - which is fascinating and might be a good answer if 
you have the technical skill and desire to mold it to your needs,
                      (I have the first and probably not the 2nd)
          Hostgator - suggest by Shel - on review their cost might be ok 
for a very few number of CMS sites (WP, Joomla, Drupal) Not for more 
complex needs.

Personally, I am drifting to the solution being a VPS setup and look at: 
hostinger.com
            ($12/mon for reasonably powerful vps but still researching - 
esp looking for experiences)

Anyone else with Sites hosting or VPS suggestions ?  personally I want 
an option under $15/mon (for VPS).

Stay well all
Rich
