Best Linux hosting provider

[cow]

Not sure if this is the right forum, feel free to correct me if not

I'm looking for a Linux hosting provider for my website. I signed up with Axxess recently because they were the cheapest whilst offering MySQL, but I'm not at all impressed with the features and speed (I take it to be internationally hosted).

Any suggestions based on experience?

Thanks!

I Take if from your speed comment that you want to host the website locally?

I have been hosting with WebOnline and had nothing but good service and speeds, they also offer a control panel, i could setup my own email addreses and database etc...

Try Hetzner or WebAfrica

Local hosting is very expensive. Try amazon EC2 servers. There performance is good and we are using it for many of our applications now.
