I am shifting hosts again. I tried www.hostdepartment.com, then read some “terrific” reviews about them and decided to opt for another host. I tried to install Movable Type, but couldn’t get it running. I contacted support but they said that they do not allow CGI [or something like that] on that plan. If I wanted to upgrade, I had to delete that plan and signup again. I have requested for a refund which should be on the way within a few days. I may signup for the developer plan with them.

I have signed up for www.nwahosting.com. Seems like a small and new hosting company, but often it is smaller hosts that offer better services. I have signed up for a directadmin based hosting account.

To put it bluntly, direct admin is many times better than cPanel. For multiple domains, directadmin is the ultimate choice. Unlike cPanel, each domain gets a separate public_html folder, separating it completely from the main domain.

It is going to take some time before all the accounts get moved from the old host to the new server. May be I will clear everything up by tomorrow.
