Are you looking for Linux or Windows VPS hosting? There are many hosting providers that provide both Linux and Windows VPS Hosting powered by WHM/Cpanel or Plesk Control Panel in choice. As you are upgrading from Shared to VPS Hosting, a fully managed VPS would be the best choice as support department takes care of monitoring server, server security
audits and software updates along with 24/7 support.

It would depend on what your requirements are exactly. I'm actually with WebHostingBuzz as their standard hosting package is more than good enough for what I need, but really it depends on what you need.

As many others have said knowing your requirements will help people recommend companies. Try to provide the following:

• Disk/Harddrive Required:
• Bandwidth & Port Speeds Required:
• RAM/Memory Required:
• Preferred Location (UK/US etc):
• Windows or Linux:
• Managed or Unmanaged:
• Control Panel (cPanel/Plesk etc):

TIP: Always do some research on the company and look at review websites to get an idea about their services. If possible try to get a service with a 30 day money back guarantee. A good review site to check hosts by is: http://www.serchen.co.uk/

As to reliable and cheap VPS, Linode is always on the top list of my recommendation. DigitalOcean seems a nice option, too.
