www.siteflip.com - under a dollar a month, very reliable, i've been using them for all of my sites for over a year now, and have never had a problem.

or of course, do it for free by hosting it yourself, but for newbies this often isn't possible, or easy at the least

I use xerohost.net - $2.50/month, EXCELLENT customer service, 500 GB space, can ftp or upload files directly through their service, subdomains, PHP, message board, multiple email accounts, etc.

in fact, I think I may be moving to unflux very soon, I'm tired of hosting everything myself, but am quite curious about alot of the stuff you get with paid hosting, like how you edit configs and stuff...

I guess I'll find out in my quest for endless knowledge soon! :P

I host a few of my sites on them, and when I release my version 2 it will be sponsored by them. :D

lunarpages.com is who I like the best, just to add in my opinion. Go ahead and check out the message boards on there to talk to others and see what they have to say. I did a lot of research and review reading before joinging them and have been completely satisfied ever since...

www.startlogic.com tough you have to pay yearly to get the discount rate. One of my clients is hosted through them and i like how they are set up, they have a lot of perks and a great admin panel
