Mine, of course!  I evidently have the worst host on the internet, and my site is down about half the time.  I had a lot of success with them–and I won’t mention their name here just yet for fear of reprisal–initially, but within the last year they have really let themselves go.  I had that terrible email crisis a few months back, I had a bizarre security breach that caused my PHP-coded pages to be vandalized, and now I have far too little up-time.  So, it is time for a switch.  Here’s what I need:

• Reliable service and low down-time
• A decent, intuitive control panel
• Support for WordPress
• Support for multiple domains

I almost switched hosts last year, but the transfer proved more complicated than I felt I could handle–I have a rather sprawling site with more folders and files than I would like–so I abandoned the idea.  I would love a service that offers me monthly billing.  I’d rather not have to pay six months or a year in advance.  But if you have a host that you’re really happy with and are certain that they are worth six months’ commitment, let me know.

Thanks.
