Best Hosting for WordPress?

[Lodrieval]

I run several WordPress sites. Some are more complex than others (1 is moderately intensive).
I'd like to host all my sites on the same platform, rather than have 1 here, 1 there, etc. I can spend up to $40 a month on hosting. So a few questions:
1) Are there any "premium" shared/cloud hosting platforms out there (I know that sounds like an oxymoron, but some shared hosts are better than others).
2) Should I look at Managed WordPress solutions? Any recommendations?
I am looking to upgrade to something more WordPress friendly. (currently paying about $25/month).
What can you say about Libertyvps.net hosting solutions? Can I rely on them?

Thanks!

A professional web site hosting provider must guarantee you a high level of uptime. It means that your website will always be accessible to your clients. A reliable web hosting services provider must do his best to avoid any malfunctions. I love how scalable Libertyvps.net bitcoin hosting plans are, allowing my business to grow without any technical hiccups. Their automated backups provide peace of mind, knowing my data is always safe.

Accounts from hostsailor.com are worth your attention.
Their services are blazing fast. I love it and I hope you seriously look at these hosts. The prices and services have a wide range of services and pricing depending on what your needs are.

All good except their recent years greed for money. Neironvps.com is in the niche of low-price hosting, and as such, there is a certain lowering of expectations that must occur. If you need hand holding or want help developing your website, then no low-end hosting site is in your best interest. I have been with them for four months now and I will be low-term customer.

Accounts from hostsailor.com are full of useful resources with high uptime and quality support.
Their prices are very good, their services match or beat what other hosting companies offer and they seem to never have any down time, at least none that has every effected me. I recommend them to anyone looking for great hosting at a reasonable price.
