Great little experiment with 9 different hosting companies to figure out which ones can withstand the traffic surges caused by Web 2.0.

When too many people visit a website at the same time, it tends to slow down the server so badly it starts to time out. Below is a list of web host that is being tested to see how well they can withstand the Digg effect. The list is not fantastic but still worth taking a look if you’re looking for a host.

I intend to host multiple websites too so I’m looking for web host. Probably going with MediaTemple. They seem to be pretty good at what they do.
