I would like to add an addendum to my original post. It seems that my site speed and performance has improved since my last post. I don't know if they put me on a different cluster or what they did but it's nice and zippy now (even at night). I can say that I haven't had ANY downtime in a year and a half which is awesome.

I am writing this review because I have been frustrated with the part-time performance of Properhost. I got their name from the Magento forums but have to say that my site really slows down at night. I think I've figured out that because they are a Scandinavian based host the performance is fine when they're European clients are not in peak hours. I'm not entirely convinced of this theory because they are only 7 hours ahead but it may have something to do with it. All I know is that it's often REALLY REALLY Slow. So before you commit to them make sure you test them out. I'm pretty disappointed so far but have not switched away just yet and don't want retaliation from them for a bad review. (hence anonymous).

my shop is in magento for 6 months in this period sought by a host that could offer excellent performance and still have good support.

Already hired and hired several VPS plans on servers that promises speed in magenta. I am here to say I found the perfect host for magento, the name is Properhost.net. the following reasons:

1 - My magento loads very fast, I did several tests and always load in less than 1 second.

2 - Support of properhost is very nice, they always respond quickly the tickets are polite and helpful.

3 - heheheheh, has a good price!

Super hosting. My ecomm site runs lightning fast, and it is totally database driven, which means pages do not exist per se, but are assembled, on the fly, from the db. Usually this means slow page loading. As you will see on my site www.epicurecookware.com it load extremely fast.

Very helpful support. Highly recommended.
