Advice for Joomla Hosting
I need some advice on selecting the right host for a Joomla based website. The host I was initially signed up with was excellent at first but quality has gone down lately and there is too much downtime + loss of data.
Can anyone here recommend me a good host with fantastico or specializing in joomla hosting? I've searched everywhere, there are many hosting companies, with mixed reviews, but what I'm really looking for is if someone can recommend me a hosting from personal experience...
I don't need to much space.. like 1 gb will do, I have a budget of $10 or less per month, but need a lot of reliability.

You should be fine with that budget for your needs.
I recommend you to research about the hosts of your choice here << removed >>

1 GB of Space and 10 GB of bandwith usually can be covered by $10.
Even the company that you represent charge about that (a bit more, but in the same range)█ Shared Web Hosting - Reseller Hosting - Semi-Dedicated Servers - SolusVM/XEN VPS

That depend from provider to provider.
Some may have 800 accounts on the same server, and some other less than 100. I can't talk about other companies, but without trying to make this a sales speech, we put less than 100 accounts (not domains) per server.█ Shared Web Hosting - Reseller Hosting - Semi-Dedicated Servers - SolusVM/XEN VPS

I don't need to much space.. like 1 gb will do, I have a budget of $10 or less per month, but need a lot of reliability.
So, your budget is fine, however, make sure you keep your own backups (which is always good advise anyway) - and if you are doing constant development and or changes to your site, take frequent backups so that you have multiple restore points of all files and data base instances if required.www.cartika.com

thanks cartika.. i'm not really so concerned about the backups as I'd be doing my own daily backups using joomla components (like you suggested).
I've already had a couple of bad experiences where hosting co have guaranteed daily, weekly and monthly backups, but I still ended up losing so much data that either its false claims.. or simply poor service. But yes, I wouldn't generalize that.
server density etc.. not too keen to get into so much detail.. as long its reliable with a good track record of websites working fine.. im happy.. so lets keep it short n simple.. thanks for the suggestion guys..
any recommendations on companies?

As for a hosting recommendation for Joomla - sure...
http://www.rochenhost.com/
they host the entire Joomal project. Good company, good reputation and have been around quite awhile.
Hope this helps...www.cartika.com
