Default What hosting should I get

Currently I host on another service and my monthly price went from 20 dollars a month to over 100 dollars a month in hosting costs due to my traffic increasing. I honestly think there has to be a better deal so I was recommended to try here.
Here's what I run:
4 domains with 6 subdomains (these are required for proper 301 forwarding)
I will eventually add 2 more domains once my other hosting expires.
I have 3 wordpress blogs, and 2 phpbb forums. The main problem is 1 of the wordpress blogs- it is running as a large feed aggregator. It aggregates over 300 blogs and my traffic is steadily growing.
Here's a link to my SQL analysis- please advise me what is the best plan to serve my needs.

Thanks!

Default Re: What hosting should I get

Based on the reported usage you've specified, you may need something like a VPS or dedicated for the site with the large feed aggregator although you are welcome to try it on a shared server. It's hard for us to know before hand exactly the type of usage profile you'll see on our servers since we have extremely powerful hardware and some highly tuned configurations.

With that being said, if the script begins to cause problems or affect the server negatively one we will be forced to disable the script and you would then either need to optimize the script or move to a dedicated server or VPS which we could help with.

Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns. Thank you.
