What are some of the best website hosting platforms for Wordpress?

[webestate]

I'm looking for a new hosting provider and have been told to find one that specializes in Wordpress hosting because of higher page speed load times, etc..

Can anyone recommend a couple of Wordpress Hosting providers

This is from the Wordpress site - http://wordpress.org/hosting/ 

Personally I tend to use Bluehost.

I would suggest to stay away from any host that uses the word "Unlimited". There's nothing called Unlimited.

Cheap Hosting Plans with Unlimited Space, Unlimited Bandwidth are crap. Once your website starts getting popular, it will use CPU time and when that happens, they will shut down the accounts.
