I've noticed a lot more speed in my page delivery, download speed on files and, especially, anything that requires MySQL database access.  WordPress blogs run much faster now! Now, the "Baby" Package has unlimited space, unlimited throughput, unlimited domains, and a lot more.  When I switched to Hostgator, the  "Baby" hosting package had 600GB space, 6,000GB monthly throughput, and a lot more.  It's gotten a lot better - and they even offer reseller hosting!]]></description>
