I’ve ended up going with Engine Hosting Shared Server. I so wish I had switched over last night before Media Temple’s Grid Server decided to collapse. I have a 2 day old copy of the database but really am hoping to get the latest copy of the Grid Server as soon as it’s switched back on. Really hoping the shared server is fast. Definitely not used to the control panel in EH there’s a lot of features which aren’t there but the support has been great so far.

I host the Hot Docs website on Wired Tree and have been mostly happy with the service. Over the last two years we’ve had two bad outages that took around 4-6 hours to resolve. The support staff have been consistently great - although I would have liked them to be more pro-active when our VPS went down.
The timing of our outages was bad, and as such I’ll be looking to change hosts after this years festival, but overall I have been happy with the service.
FYI we host 10,000 (ok, we peaked at 9800) visitors on a VPS384 with the RAM boosted to 512 during the festival period.

Thanks for the info. Will be interested to know which host you go to.
