Our Platinum plan offers most everything you are looking for up there

Missing from your criteria:

   unlimited subdomains (it includes 20)
   addon domain
   we have been around 4.5 years - not 5 yet. :-)
   > 500 MB disk space = we offer 500 with that plan and more space
     ala carte.

The first two you can really get around by using .htaccess commands to
redirect inbound http requests - which if you are talking about
"unlimited" is usually the best thing to do rather than using our
control panel as each addon or subdomain requires httpd.conf configs
and unlimited entries there is' probably not the best thing to do on a
shared hosting server. :-)

In general - anyone offering unlimited anything to clients that expect
to get unlimited something are half the reason those hosting providers
go under. Nothing is free. :-)

If you contact us directly and discuss your needs we are more than
willing to listen and work with you to set the options you need. We
have thousands of happy virtual sites on our servers and have been
supporting the plug domain name for 4.5 years - and I was supporting
it for years before that.
