I never, ever had a problem with the service or quality of my webhosting service. I run my own.

I keep the server here, I manage it here, keep the firewall and database here. If there is a problem, I fix it or find help. No 800 numbers, no tech support weenies.

Most webhosting companies are geared for the mom & pop grandchild picture websites. Mention a database and they don't understand what it takes. Sure, you can have access to their sqlserver, but they won't support the databse end of things. They provide web hosting, not database administration services.
