Review of Lunarpages Web Hosting

I've used Lunarpages web hosting myself for two years now, and I have found (almost) nothing to complain about.
My site www.military-quotes.com started out with 50-100 visitors when I decided to give Lunarpages a try,
and it has grown to 10k-12.000 daily visitors now, and I have noticed no difference in page loading speed and stability at all.

Their customer service is very helpful and friendly, and I've always got a response and the questions
answered and/or problems solved within a few hours after I've mailed them. (I've never tried to call)
I host a couple of sites there, and they called me and setup one of them in just 30 minutes after I ordered it!

The only "negative" thing I've encountered with them was that Lunarpages "forgot" to tell me that they moved my site to a new (and faster) server once, and I encountered some problems with a MySQL database the day after.
I got in touch with their support, and we were able to solve the problem and upload a backup together the same day.

I can give you some stats from my own site in order to help you choose a web hosting package.
I get 10.000+ visitors pr day, with around 5 page views each.
The site and the MySQL databases uses around 600mb, and I have 200.000+ pages and a lot of images there.
The monthly data transfer is around 30gb.
 So they have plans to cover everything from small personal sites to large professional commercial sites.

They do also have some of the most competitive prices and web hosting plans in the industry.
