I'm looking for a webhost that provides at least 100-200mb of space minimum, between 5-10gb transfer, apop, possibly imap, mailing lists, nice control panel (hsphere or cpanel), multiple domains (at least pointers), dedicated ip, MySQL dbs (at least 1).

The emphasis is on reliability and value. I've been spoiled by Futurequest's services and great support community but I want more disk space and at least a couple of MySQL db's but at Futurequest, that'll almost double my costs.

Basically I'm looking for a high-end shared host. I'm currently very interested in Fluidhosting.com but not much feedback is out there. Dreamhost was a consideration but a static ip shouldn't cost extra. I did like site5 but for some reason Fluidhosting looked a little more appealing. (Price range from $15-25).

lightusr,
Sounds like you are doing your homework which is a very good idea. You can't go wrong with fluidhosting as they seem like a great provider which offers quality bandwidth.

Good luck with whomever you choose.

Check out emarkhosting.com, we have had our company's website hosted with them for awhile now. We have there ePro Plan, we get 15 MySql's and can host 4 domains with cPanel.

They are a little bit more expensive, but well worth it. They are reliable, have good support and we have experienced 0 downtime since we signed up with them.
