Thats a hard one. I would say look up a buisness on the net see what there like and do some research on them ask them questions ask for refrences then make your mind up thats what I see alot. I would also look at the datacentre used then do some research on it i.e. look it up here and else where. And check the host out in the real world etc. See if they offer telephone support and that they are a registered buisness that will give you some safe guards. Also most hosts will allow you to trial them out if there any good and confident. But its up to them if they give you a free trail before buying etc.

Ive been asking things for a while I have done some research etc on some and have found yes to this no becuase of that.

Venturesonline.com (http://www.venturesonline.com/hosting/bulk-reseller.html) might be worth looking at. Unlike others mentioned, (correct me if I am wrong) they own their own data center (http://www.venturesonline.com/network/data-center-tour.html). Toll free (USA/Canada) phone number, and an off network support web site are pluses. All this and more with competively priced plans.

Ditto.

add www.idologic.com to that list.

SEARCH (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/search.php?s=) for any of these web hosts and you'll likely find nothing but high praise.

Best of luck on your search and thank you for not looking for dirt cheap $1/mo web hosting offering 5GB/100GB :)

I know VO has RAID-5 for disk redundancy and off-server reseller account backups (tape) with a 14 day retention cycle. Do other resellers mentioned in this thread offer this?

No, most think a backup to a second drive is sufficient ;)

Is this based on experience with these hosts?

While I know that is the "norm" in many cases Robert, I also read about www.Spenix.com and I for one would be willing to pay more (actually the same or less in cases than some providers mentioned in this thread) to have my clients data on an off-server tape backup.

Actually at the research lab that I work we've completely switched to backup servers. The funny thing is we've got 10 year old harddrives spinning every happily, but a 5 year old tape is bust or the drive that reads it is bust. I personally think that well setup backup-servers are the way to go, specifically for non-archival purposes.

Since this topic is abt "Best" reseller and I think everyone has it's idea of "Best".

I would hope to get some opinion between bluewho and clook, whom in past r/v were both highly rated.
