Hi everyone, this is our first post here.

We are currently trying to find the VERY BEST company out there for managed dedicated hosting. Cost isn’t an issue as we run a couple of very profitable adult sites. We are really only interested in:

Modern, fast and reliable servers with knowledgeable admin.
-
The absolute maximum possible uptime.
-
EXCELLENT 24/7 365 support and being able to contact support through ticket, phone and ICQ with a FAST response when needed.
-
A real understanding of the need for both server/website modern-day security.
-
A company that is used to working with profitable and professional companies and share the professional attitude and understanding which makes the website profitable in the first place.

We are presently with a hosting company who seem to have gone from 100% reliable to 100% cost driven and its starting to cost us a great deal or money and even worse it is having a negative impact upon our own business reputation.

Anyone have any thoughts or personal recommendations?

Thanks, Jaguar

Rackspace.com, they're expensive.

usi.net, they'll run you about a quarter of a million per quarter.

It definitely does, however, some companies sell a lot of servers which means they can afford to give it cheaper.

You might like to post a request in the appropriate forum.

I'm with ServInt and they are great. They don't offer ICQ or ticket based service but they answer their phones within a few rings and my emails to them are answered in less than 15 minutes average. Just by dealing with them you can feel that they are a very professional company. They are fully managed. Not the cheapest, but I feel they are worth every penny.

They recently had a special on WHT, so you should do a search for BobFarmer or ServInt to find the thread.

I second that. ServInt's a great managed server provider. Rock-solid network with amazing tech support.

I've used CIT (http://www.httpd.net/) for the past few years and have built a sizeable prescence in their datacenter. The support is beyond amazing and phone support is also available, but rarely needed. Their networks are even better... And most of all their specialty is managed services.

Lastly, if it's security you're looking for, they are definitely the people you would want to talk to. They offer managed firewall services too.
