My site is really starting to slow down and crash a fair amount, so I'm looking at getting a new host. But, it's been a while since I've been live, so its grown since my first hosting package.
What is the best way to judge what I need?
A breakdown of what I need to run. I'd prefer a UK host.

Bandwidth: 70GB
I've been told to get a cloud server, 1xCPU 2GB RAM, comes with 40GB disk space and 1TB bandwidth at around £60+VAT. Seems overkill!
