Getting high traffic is the BEST bad news to everyone. :) Don't try shared hosting, you will need more resources very soon. go for managed Dedicated hosting once and for all. Hehe.

I just happen to be one who had a bad host. Like I said though, I should have done this a long time ago and saved myself the grief. Hell, we’re all wannabe’s.

It helps out wannabe popular blogges like myself a great deal. I know fully the pain of swapping hosts, so you have my sympathy. Good luck with the future! Thanks for the detailed post Brian.

I hate dealing with all that hosting stuff. So far I've had good luck with BlueHost, though like Dion said, I haven't hit the Digg front page. Hope you have good luck with Media Temple.

Hopefully Media Temple has their act together at this point. They seem to be constantly improving their service and implementing customer feedback. I'm following their blog and I get the impression that they're not lazy about their business. Thanks Susheel. Hopefully Media Temple has their act together at this point.

Congrats on the MediaTemple hosting... I hear that they're great (though they've had their share of trouble in the past.) And a great job on this post and the Flickr Photographers one too... This is just a stepping stone to getting really popular... Susheel Brian,

I suppose I'd rather have too much than too little. You’re right about that, Dion. I suppose I’d rather have too much than too little.

The Flickr post has gotten a considerable amount of traffic, and it will continue to do so. I'm thankful for the traffic is has/will receive. As for Media Temple, time will tell. My confidence is high. LOL Chris, it sounds like it’s time to move to a new host!

Then again I haven't had the good/bad fortune of being on the front page of digg/reddit/slashdot etc. Well, getting too much traffic is probably one of the best bad things that can happen to your site. ;)

ANHosting don't need a Digg spike to fall over, they just do it on a daily basis all by themselves. The photographers post is a quality one, and should still get the traffic it deserves over time.
