Appropriate web hosting provider needed

It’s been one month I’m searching for web hosting provider and all I have found is:
1. one disappoint; luckily I’ve got my money back
2. fact that there is TOTAL WAR for customers between web hosting companies.
Paid reviews, both negative and positive – they are all you get when trying to found little more about some hosting services.
I need to get tip – which hosting company you are satisfied and have good experience?
I need hosting for site that will have about 2000 visits daily, will run php scripts/Joomla, MySql database and, most important, will be fast and responsive…

If server uptime and speed is most important to you,
The I challenge you to find better a host than 1and1!
I have been with them 6 years now, never been down!
They host everyone’s website at 2 different datacenters,
So if one datacenter goes down, your website is still online.
Plus its one of the most powerful shared hosting packages I have used.
