I've been using GoDaddy.. they offer both hostname registration and web hosting, which is handy, and they are relatively cheap while also allowing a good amount of download and upload bandwidth and overall amount. Even if you don't want to use them for hosting, they are good for hostname registration.

I am currently on a 'shared webhost' which is noticeably slower than say Wikipedia for hosting the same type of wiki, but for a few dollars more you can get a dedicated host which I'm sure would be noticeably faster.

GoDaddy also has an easy-to-use online site manager that will allow you to configure everything you'll probably need - email, various SQL-based database managers (MySQL, others I forget), ...

It does sound somewhat more expensive than some of the options others have mentioned, though, and depending on your website's intended purpose it may be more than you need.


that made be so but I have a friend of mine using the hosting site for the domain name and they are some how difficult to deal with am talking about godaddy.com if accident acurd possibly or get your self hacked or something or rather that just one example

I have used surpass hosting for more years than I can remember for the hosting and godaddy for my domain(s). Both send reminders out well in advance if your renewal is due and when I have in the past forgot to pay surpass they have been fantastic and very patient. They also have never imposed any penalties on me and I pay both surpass and godaddy through PayPal so no need to key in CCard details, etc. The email service is fast and the live support is excellent if you do have any issues. I cant remember the last time there was a service outage but if there is to be any downtime due to maintenance they always email in advance.
