Best US/Global host for bulk traffic

Have a few websites which receive massive amount of traffic and talking in excess of 100k+ page views a day. Any good hosts or dedicated or VPN hosting services you can recommend? Looking at paying between $50-75 a month to host a few sites and not be shut down because of the traffic volume it brings. Gambling related traffic in US and Asia.

Thoughts?

Go for a managed VPS or a managed dedicated server, whichever host you go for.

If you're getting 100k page views a day, why skimp on hosting? Go balls to the wall IMHO.

100k + per day use dedicated or a top spec cloud server, VPN are good but for a few hundreds bucks go up.. I have never understood people making thousands, spending thousands on marketing but using cheap servers.. $75 will get you a good setup but 3 million page views you should be making sure the tools are solid

I've been with them for almost 3 years now. Have a fully managed SSD VPS (6gig ram). They used to be pretty cool on giving out IP's (US$1 per month), but I guess with a shortage of IPv4, and me having fair few of them now, that basket is now closed and locked, least from me...lol

Support tickets are all handled in-house, and response times average at around 3min.

I'm paying US$74 per/month (but that's a 3 year old price), it includes dedi IP's.

Site load times are very quick. DOCH (WP) for example loads in under 0.5sec (no CDN used), when tested from the USA.

That really baffles me too. Cheap and nasty oversold shared hosting... why, why, why :no:

Godaddy is excellent for Asia with their Singapore data center.

They get the flak for customer service; their infrastructure is good.
