For domains, www.godaddy.com is cheap. 18 bucks for 1 year, i forget how many domain's i can have but its what Mira and I use. The customer service is great.
I use doteasy.com I use the ultra hosting for 8 bucks a month. Customer service is amazing, little expensive compared to what Mira uses, which I recommended to him.
Mira uses Jiffynet.net for solrorage.com 10 bucks a month for fucking GOBS of space. 100gig MONTHLY. Its sick. The user panel is fucking sweet too. Wish I had gone iwth them but I'm used to doteasy and it serves my purpose.
Check out this though: http://www.norrathsstudio.org/phpBB4ns/viewtopic.php?t=7238. A lot of sites to choose from with comments too. =)
I do about 10+ or so gigs a month and I get 'fair' traffic. My site is kinda well known but doesn't get as much traffic as solrorage.com but compared to other sites I get a lot of hits. 12k+ hits in a year, not bad...not great, but not bad.
Web hosting..
To all who have websites...Who do you use as your web host?
I was considering This host because $4.99/month and $5.00 domain registration, this is very cheap. I wouldn't need all that much webspace, so I think 333 MB is enough. 10 Gig data transfer is pretty good to I think..I hope to have some traffic, but I don't think I'll need all that much.
Could you post who you all are using so I can check them out? Thanks in advance.

wow! I seriously doubt I'll get that much traffic, but maybe I should think about bumping up the Gig transfer just in case. :)
Thx for the info Mae!

My new hosting service is up. This is the same service that takes care of Norrath's Studio, EQPA, ThePixelVilla.com, and 2bitpixels.com currently. Well, we have a new machine, a much better and faster one, and we're in the process of moving all those over to the new server.
http://www.DeezSites.com
And I'd like you to come to! I'm offering a 10% off discount to Norrath's Studio members (cuz I lub you guys), by using the coupon code nstudio when you check out at my site.
Here you can check out my plans, purchase plans (instant payment and setup through Paypal or 2Checkout.com), and purchase some amazing web templates, the best I've ever seen, for low prices.
Here's a basic overview of my plans (prices don't include 10% off coupon):
Basic: $7/mo anually, $8/mo bi-anually, $10/mo monthly
1GB Storage
30GB/mo Transfer
5 mySQL databases
Unlimited email (also forwarders and catchalls)
5 domains
15 subdomains
Intermediate: $12/mo anually, $13/mo bi-anually, $15/mo monthly
1.5GB Storage
50GB/mo Transfer
Unlimited mySQL databases
Unlimited email (also forwarders and catchalls)
50 domains

3GB Storage
80GB/mo Transfer
Unlimited mySQL databases
Unlimited email (also forwarders and catchalls)
Unlimited domains
Unlimited subdomains
Anonymous FTP support
SSL Certificate support
Full DNS management
All plans come with PHP, Python, and Perl support, Frontpage extensions, and more (you can see the whole list on the site). Each account also comes with DirectAdmin, a full control panel with every customizable option you can think of, file management, reporting, a built in trouble ticketing system, and more!
We also have Installatron, which is built into DirectAdmin. This allows you to install tons of the latest versions of packages right at the click of a button. There's blogging software, phpBB and invision powerboard, e-commerce, photo galleries. You can see the full list here: http://www.deezsites.com/installatron.php
The machine that it's is connected to about 9 different internet backbones, so downtime is extremely rare. In fact, the entire server room boasts a 99.9% uptime since its inception. Not only that, but you've got your friendly neighborhood admin/stripper to help you with all your site needs!
Unfortunately, the only thing I don't have so far is a service to buy domain names. You'll have to buy somewhere else (I recomment DirectI or godaddy) and point to ns1.deezsites.com and ns2.deezsites.com for the nameservers. When you sign up at my site for your hosting plan, it will ask for a domain name; don't worry if you don't alread have one to point at your new hosting, just give it one you are likely to get! You can still access most site functions without a domain name...then do the rest once you get one!
