Trustworthy web hosting suggestions?

[metanet]

It is important not to overlook the data center.  Many hosts are reselling from data centers that are owned and operated by third parties like Equinix.   Some of them have a lot of interruptions due to the carriers being congested there, or regular downtime, or just hosting other customers who get DDOS attacked. It is important to find a reputable host for this reason, at least if you are selling some e-commerce product.
