Problem with those kind of hosts, unless I'm mistaken, is they advertise themselves as unlimited (for bandwidth and storage), but are vague about CPU and RAM. Fair enough if they give you a warning first, but not if they kick you off as soon as your site gets remotely popular.

I've always thought they're weren't much use for anything substantial, OTOH people sometimes just automatically recommend dedicated servers, which can be overkill for some sites, so I'd be interested to know how popular, say, a Wordpress blog can be without it catching their (Hostgator/Dreamhost) attention.
