Thanks for your reply Kelli58

1) Good Point! I agree, from now on I'll pay monthly

2) Just HTML and a little CSS, no programs running. Unless you could clicking on 'Latest Visitors'. They eventually emailed me some stats of the CPU and it had a list of photos and HTML galleries that I had submitted to popular TGP's

3) Agreed

#2) What in the world are you running that would take up so much CPU for just one website? You might want to consider optimizing whatever software you are using on your site because as your traffic increases, so will CPU usage and that will only cause you major problems and headaches in the future.

#3) As someone else already pointed out, always go with a web hosting company specific to our industry. Others may say "we don't mind" but really in the end trust me from someone who has been doing this going on 13 years now, you never want to mess around with your web hosting.
