I recently ran some PPV traffic on a shared server
and damn near blew it up. I had them throttle the traffic back significantly but it was still too much. I'd like to try more PPV traffic and know that I need to upgrade my server capacity. Are my options just to go to a VPS or a dedicated server? I currently use Hostgator.
Thanks for any advice!
No need for dedicated for now, just grab a VPS package from beyondhosting and scale just when you're comfortable with driving large amount of traffic on a daily basis.
Many people will recommend Beyond Hosting. That is what I am currently using and have no complaints so far. I have also seen Liquid Web recommended here too.

You can't go wrong with Beyond Hosting. Their customer service is great and they can help with all your affiliate hosting needs.
I'll +1 Beyond Hosting. Storm on Deman (Liquid Web) is good too. Either one will suit your needs.
