If the staff is not friendly besides being experienced, this will not be a fun ride. You want unconditional around the clock customer service. Response time should average no more than 15 minutes. The support structure should include more than just one level, and the help desk system must work efficiently.

Take your time to find a website host that will meet your needs.  Remember if you are using a backbone like Joomla or Drupal for your website that utilizes a MySQL data structure moving these sites is not an easy, or cheap task.  Some will have to be rebuilt from the ground up.  We often come into situations where we cannot work on clients sites because their chosen hosts is offline and since it is the weekend they don't have anyone their to fix the problem.  We recently ran into a company who's website was completely destroyed because they ran an anti-virus program on her directory.  This was on a Unix machine using a cart that can appear to be a virus but in actuality is not.  It is Linux so the virus sweep was not necessary on her account and the company didn't back it up before doing so.  This company had spent thousands of man hours on this site and it is now just destroyed for no reason.  It costs more to go with a quality host, but their is a reason; do it right the first time.
