It's real simple. There are two types of hosts.
1. Super low cost, single routed hosts that are often oversold. Great for free traffic and freehosts. Just do traces from all over, if they all trace through the same tier one, and if they have hops over 50ms, that's that you've got. Perfect for galleries, TGPs, freehosts, etc.
2. Higher cost, higher quality. Multi-routes, fast throughput. 2-3x the cost. Trace from all over and you see 3+ routes, not more than 40ms on any. That's the good shit. Perfect for paysites tours, webmaster sites, etc.
Know what you've got, and you'll rest easier.
