I have used hosting providers for the last 12 years and after using Cirtex Hosting, Memset and Webfusion for many years I have now found two companies that have excellent support services.
They are Hawkhost.com and Downtownhost.com and they have provided me with a first class service and very little downtime.
I have many websites so always use more than one host to spread my dependency.

I would be very wary of the word 'unlimited'. You will usually find in the small print that there is a restriction to 'normal use' or some phrase like that. Nobody can actually give unlimited storage or bandwidth. If a hosting company offers the word 'unlimited' I dont trust them. If they can lie about that then they can give me trouble over something important. Nobody gives something for nothing!
A re-seller account is where you can host different domain names under one account. It allows you to set the limits for each domain and each domain has its own back office and email. I use re-seller accounts.
Unlimited domains is where you can add on a sub domain to a main domain. You will have seen them often used by spammers and phishing sites like barclaysbank.scam.com and hsbc.scam.com and standardbank.scam.com. They have no street cred but can be useful in big companies and schools.
