The last time I asked here for hosting I got in touch with the guy from http://www.foundrynap.com/ . He was really a nice guy on ICQ and made me the best offer. So I started my new website on his webspace, thinking that I found a solid hoster. After a few days I noticed the first short downtime...but nothing really bad. Than I was on holiday for a week and a friend told me that the website was down for at least 3-4 days, perhaps more. I wasn't really angry, because it was just my 2nd page and not that important, but of course surprised about that hoster. Two weeks later (I completely forget about that 2nd page) I was confronted with a msg like (index.html was deleted...bla) on my main page. I read on GFY that some script-kiddies deleted all index.html files on my server.
That was the point I said to myself, that I can't trust only one person who tries to tell me how great their service is.
That is nothing against you - I don't know you / your company - your service can be really good - but I heard that once too often. So now I want to switch to a well-known (big) company with a lot of happy customers. I'm not sure if this is smart or whatever, but I just want to ensure that my website will be ALWAYS available.
