First time hub buying

So my lock ring stripped today and ruined the threading on my hub just a few weeks after I stripped the other side for the exact same reason.

I was running the stock cog and lockring that came with my vuelta pista wheelset I purchased last year, so I'm assuming that was the culprit as after I stripped it the first time I took my bike to my lbs to make sure everything was tightened properly and I wouldn't strip it again (that worked out well).

What kind of measurements and so forth do I need to know when I begin looking for a new hub online? What kind of brands do you guys recommend? I'll be buying a new cog and lockring as well so what kind of brands do you recommend? I'm looking to spend 40-60 for a hub, and 20-30 for a cog/lockring.
