You can start with an IP trace from your location and around the world. Ask for their uptime reports.

Download a speedtest file. Then email the host at all hours of the day and night, ask a shit load of relevant questions and by the time you're done you will have ruled out several of those seemingly attractive offers.


Good luck . . .

Is there a way I can test the performance of a host? Like scripts or programs I can run from my site or a third party site that will check the performance of a provider reliably?
