[VPS] or [Shared] Looking for VPS for several WP sites

Looking for a VPS for a few 3 or so few page WP sites, and a few HTML sites. Tired of using cPanel SLOW hosting accounts. I love HostMantis but pages upon first load are SO slow, its not the ping or connection either, both there NL & LA server is the exact same for me! and others. Great provider though, but the slow speeds are not good for business.
But looking for 10GB storage.
Respectable Provider.
USA or UK.
And whatever enough Ram for Wordpress sites with 1 or none plugins.
Must be a reliable provider, Will consider shared hosting if it at least loads the sites without a extreme delay.
Budget a few dollars a month. or can pay yearly.
Thanks

Buy a VPS.
Toss on CentMinMod if you don't wanna configure everything from scratch and your set.
I recommend HostUs, they have a $12 year package that is perfect for what you need.
You can find it here http://www.lowendtalk.com/discussion/51204/hostus-custom-control-panel-768mb-10-y-2gb-35-y-6gb-18-q
It says $10 a year, but it's actually $12 due to a recent price increase.
@AlexanderM is their representative here on LET.
Either that or you can pay RamNode monthly.
We have some very undersold shared servers. Personal plan starts at $4/mo and it comes with 10GB storage. ($40/year paid annually).
If you want to give it a shot, feel free to contact me. Comes with dedicated IP as well.
The server location is in Los Angeles.

HostUS's $12/yr node should be fine for you, you want a speedtest?
Thanks! Might be going with them for it then!
Oh yeah, this was the speed when I initially got the machine:

Currently, it's taking forever to do the tests, I suppose that someone else on the same node is getting hammered with an DDoS attack.
Will post the new (but not an accurate representation) speedtest later.
@AlexanderM: Mind checking if the node I'm on (LAX01-VZ58) is being hammered by an attack? Everything seems to work just fine, but network is kinda slow.
That was quick. 30 minutes later, and my server is still testing... fml.
512MB+ VPS with EasyEngine.io installed for optimized WP installs. You can also do static sites on it easily.
Something definitely wrong with your node.
I'm gonna fall asleep soon lmao. nload is showing really shitty speeds, anyway.
EDIT: HAS BEEN ONE HOUR.
EDIT #2: Finally.
As for UK shared, take a look at OnePoundWebHosting.
Doesn't seem to be right, could you please create a ticket and we will have this looked at.
For shared, buyshared and Mightweb have excellent performance.
Did you try to optimize the sites? A caching plugin like wp super cache can help a lot in speeding things up. Give it a shot, before moving to any new host.
For VPS, Hostus, Impactvps, Aruba etc are some good option within your budget.
If you are interested we do have a promotion for UK and NJ, USA actually: http://gdbi.pw/launchuk
