40. How many servers do you operate?
More important is how well the servers are managed though...
41. Can you give me a list with some of your customers? I would like to get some feedback from them.
Most serious hosts will refrain from doing such a thing for customer privacy reasons. Not that a host that gives you a list is not serious. They might have a list with websites of customers who have agreed to have their websites given as an example.
42. There are thousands of hosts out there, why should I buy from you?
Although listed way down here this is a very important question. Can they convince you that they're the right host for you?
Wrap-up
Yes, I know, another intelligent subtitle. That's all that I could think of at this late hour in the night though.
Now, as you can see, the number of questions is not a small one. Most likely you'll have a few of your own to add to these, so try your best to find as many answers as possible on the host's website. A huge list of questions would annoy anyone. Also note that you don't necessarily need answers to all the questions that I listed here.
