You should really learn how to do your own backups for your website; there are 3rd party software companies that you can host a script in your site directory to allow for daily or weekly backups.

Otherwise, namecheap may be a good option for their VPS hosting plans. Don't use their shared hosting, as if you require a bit heavier traffic, you won't get that great of a response from their shared hosting plans.

Additionally, if you find another site that's related to yours that operates well, find out who they're hosting with by using http://www.whoishostingthis.com/

Cheers, and good luck!

Thank you for suggestions, next time I will be smarter. I already setup daily back ups to Dropbox so now it should be safer.
About that whoishostingthis - its looks cool, except it wont help you detect hosting provider if they are using CDN service as I do or bigger sites as well.

I believe cloud hosting is apt for you.
There are two major choices you can look at.

1. Digitalocean
-Simple interface, relatively affordable, not very complicated.

2. AWS
-Clusterfuck of choices, leaves a hole in your pocket if done wrong, wide array of choices and well, lets you set up servers anywhere in the world (almost)

I was thinking about NameCheap before and I also heard something about Hostinger ...but Hostinger ... I dont know... I have weird feeling about this company. 

What would you suggest with namecheap? VPS?
Is that VPS Lite - Xen enough?

I am using Hostinger and NameCheap, both are high reputable and accept Bitcoin. Have different plans and pricing.

Hi,

I just want to ask you if you have any recommendation heavier website with bigger traffic, because I really need urgently a new reliable hosting, but I dont want to pay more than I can earn for hosting.

Currently I am using easycloud.us which is quite good, because it can handle bigger and heavier website with bigger traffic and there is space for upgrades ... but technical support is super super bad. They never help you if you have a problem, there are no back ups, if something happen you have to wait for answer hours or days and result is that you have do it yourself or hire someone.

I would love to something like easycloud.us but with better support in case that something will happen.

Thank you very much for your suggestions. Any experience with https://www.digitalocean.com/?
