I do not think large companies are indeed the best. I prefer using middle-sized hosts, which might be experienced, quality and worldwide. Such as santrex.net which is offering virtually any hosting service at multiple datacenters in America, Europe and Russia being attractive for all types of sites and content.

Also I may recommend considering the services of glowhost.com which is versatile and stable company based in the US, and having longest moneyback guarantee and the one of the most attractive special offers.
