Often we are buying hosting from many known and un-known web hosting companies. How do we get an idea how good would the new service be ??

To be honest there are no absolute method to know for sure unless some one inside gives you the right news. How ever you can get an idea on your neighbours.

My IP Neighbors -> http://www.myipneighbors.com one such service, which can give you an idea that how many sites are running on the same IP address.

Once again it cant give you the exact picture of the web server it self as a single server can and may host many IP address and one IP once again can host many web sites…. But usually low budget hosts will have single IP and if you find many sites on a single IP which means may be its time for you to check all those site whether they have any resource hungry application running or not…

Typically blogs and simple HTML or PHP web site with moderate traffic (for example 10k unique visits on a single blog would be called moderate) wont cause any issue, you can have many such site on a single server or IP as your neighbour without any issue… But if you see sites running vBulletine sites having 100k or more unique visits a month or any Web based Proxy site hosted on the same server then yeah if you have 10 or more such sites under same server then try and ask the Hosting service to issue a different server…
