I really wouldn't judge a host based on their website. I personally wouldn't go with any of these companies (ones that offer design as a primary service) I would head over to webhostingtalk.com and ask around there
I did a lot of research on this, both webhosting forum and other places, seems like Mediatemple is a good host, and they answered quickly all my pre-sales questions, that other hosts simply ignored.
2advanced.net is where they host their clients from webdesign and give them paid-hosting. Yes it is expensive but you get what you pay for. Going for cheap hosting that you'll have downtime or poor support.
