Who did you switch to? I have a bunch of hostgator accounts (no problems right now). But looking for another alternative as backup (just to have on standby, incase hostgator takes a dump. I also have dreamhost (cheap w/ coupons but crap compared to hostgator).
I have a DreamHost account, which I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND, for basic file storage and stuff that I don't really care about. My arbitrage sites are hosted on a shared hosting plan with asmallorange.com. So far I haven't had any problems with them.
