Hey everyone! I'm looking for a VPS provider who has great reputation and consistently high uptime. They should have established good trust in the industry, enough to assure me that they won't accidentally delete my VPS or some sort of other 'disaster'. Here's the details on what I need. Location: Somewhere in the southwest United States, preferrably California or Arizona. Minimum specs: 30 GB Disk Space 500GB Monthly Transfer 1.5 GB RAM CentOS or Ubuntu High outgoing transfer speeds (I need file downloads to be fast) Control panel: cPanel I'm fine with it either being included or sold as an add-on. I also am able to get my own license if necessary. Management: Unmanaged is preferred, I have run many servers before and can manage on my own. What I'll be hosting: - multiple high-traffic APIs - web application demos and commerce sites - (In the future) games and social networks I don't mind the pricing, as long as it is high-speed and reliable, then I should be okay with it. Please recommend any hosts you know that meet these requirements. Cheers! Last edited by bstarke; 12-13-2015 at 08:45 PM.

RamNode has VPS in Los Angeles, very reliable. Other than that I'd recommend PhotonVPS in LA.

RamNode is a good option. I have also had a good experience with BudgetVM. The only thing with BudgetVM is they have quite a lot of blacklisted IPs, however they are very understanding of that situation and most of the time will issue new clean IPs at your request.

Check psychz and quadranet too.

You can check some new providers in the marketing forums and within offers section on this forum. Then ask questions and read reviews. That would be the best casting for your new provider. There are a lot of good providers in United States.

If you're hosting high traffic anything, a single server solution (especially controlled by a panel like cPanel or Plesk) is a bit limiting. You would be better to consider a multi-server solution with load balancers. This can also help to increase your uptime and reliability.
