Has anyone any experience with a Virtual Web Host?

Company I'm on contract with are looking for a good, reliable and good priced company that has the following:

Virtual Web Hosting
Unlimited bandwidth
Option to add domains at will
Unlimited email addresses (per domain)
Initially 1TB of storage with option to expand in the future.
Microsoft SQL
.Net v2 (with option to upgrade to v3)

Anyone know of any good companies that offer this?

I've no idea. I've been told that I there are companies which have rack-mounted servers with virtual servers for clients (me) to do with what they want.

If that's a "dedicated" server then yeah, but I've been told it's a "virtual"

Just having a bit of fun since 'virtual' can also mean 'shared' and you often see people wanting that sort of spec for £2/month (eg Dreamhost-type hosting) :)

Pop over to www.webhostchat.co.uk and post in the requests forum - lots of hosts there who'll be able to give you some good quotes.

Unlimited bandwidth doesn't exist - you might want to consider your needs and try to get a ballpark figure of the bandwidth you're likely to consume if you want a realistic quote from a reliable provider. :)

1TB storage is quite a lot, especially if you want your provider to backup your data regularly as well. Do you actually require 1TB or do you just want the most (oversold) space for the least price? (i.e. Dreamhost et al)
