Subject: Re: I'm looking for a good shared hosting web host
I would recommend a VPS from https://www.pixelgate.net/ . I've known
Bill the owner since 2005. No level ones - you talk with a real sys
admin who can fix things. I have a small VPS + Plesk
https://www.pixelgate.net/cloud/ I've had it for maybe 5 years.

I think you would be very happy. I know I am.
