Default advice about picking a new poker site

I can't remember what I'm supposed to be doing at work this afternoon, thus I am thinking of more important issues like what new poker site (if any) to sign up for.

Here's the situation: I'm a recreational player (1000-4000 hands/month), mostly play limit (2-4 tables, full or shorthanded, usually 2/4 or 3/6 but will play from .5/1 to 5/10 depending on my mood), like to play PLO, NLHE, SNGs, and MTTs from time to time.

I currently have accounts at Party, UB, and Pacific. Party and UB are both fine and I'm sure I'll keep playing there; I could forget about Pacific if I found more appealing options (which shouldn't be hard).

So, I am considering signing up for 1 or 2 more sites primarily to (1) have more MTT options since I have to play whatever is available when I have the time (there are usually only 3 or 4 times a month when I have the time) and (2) benefit from any bonuses or other various and sundry rewards offered by different sites.

I've done some reseach on a few sites and have come up with the following list of likely options. Any feedback on these sites (or others that seem appropriate) would be appreciated.

Sign up at other Party skins for bonuses. Poker Stars is good for tournaments, but rarely has bonuses.

Full Tilt has 100% signup bonus, but it's tough to clear unless you play 3/6 or higher and you have two months to clear it.

Stars has great tournaments IMO. MTTs are especially good, but the SnGs are good too.
