Shared, Reseller or Dedicated?

When you look for hosting, what are your priorities?

Do you tend to go for Shared accounts, reseller accounts, or full dedicated servers?
 
Dedicated servers here, but I do test out other companies reseller accounts to see if they over load and for SEO purposes :)
 
Good idea, what do you think to the idea of for example, if you rent dedicated servers from Xcompany, renting a reseller or another dedicated server from Ycompany, as a backup incase the Xcompany server goes down?

Do you think it pays to have servers in multiple telehouses ?
 
Hello!
I would say that if you do not need a lot of disk space a shared account will work. If you need to give out shared accounts then a reseller is best for you. Or if you want total control a dedicated/VPS is for you. But if you want a server with no worries about having control then a managed dedicated server should do the job.

I think that if you have servers in different places it’s a good idea. I say this because if one datacenter goes out you will not have all of your marbles in one bunch.

I feel that having servers in different places provides a more stable environment for your hosting company. As far as going with a shared account its more than just disk space you have to find out if your website will run sufficiently on it. Recently I tried a shared account with a "wll known" script for domain scanning and it ran considerably slow on it so I moved it to a dedicated server.
