Who are you guys using for website hosting?

I have used Go Daddy in the past, but I am curious to who you are using...and what king of deals are out there now.

I'm changing hosts soon as well. The last time this came up on the board, a few people vouched for Powweb, which seems to be the strongest choice. The live customer service feature is alone is

They only have one package which is $7.77/month. Here's what's included:

We are using Mediacatch for Waxidermy. so far they have been easy to deal with and cheap (though, I've yet to deal with anyone else)

these guys charge a $30 setup fee, though...I aint really with that. As far as I can remember, Go Daddy didnt charge a setup fee. I guess I am thinking about using them again..unless someone can tell me why I shouldnt. I dont know too much about the web hosting game.

What I basically need is 2 different domains hosted. if I have two, I can combine them under one host right..meaning I dont have to sign up for web hosting for each individual domain, do I?

I'm using GoDaddy for some very minor hosting. For bigger stuff I've done I've used Interland.

well, I will only be using the hosting for a very small company selling merchandise and the other will be an online design portfolio, so I am guessing neither should take up too much space. Because of that, I am guessing I can opt for one of their smaller hosting plans. It's just hard to decide with so many options.

im using 1and1.com which was recomended by more than a few o nthis board.. raj included i believe

so is it possible to have two domain names being hosted on only one host? Right now, I am ready to go ahead and sign up for hosting somewhere, but I dont want to buy 2 domain names and 2 hosting packages, when I could just buy 2 domain names and only 1 hosting packge(to host both). I just want to know before I go clicking away on buttons, commiting to an extra hosting plan that I don't need. Thanks for the input, everyone.

$30 set up fee is only if you opt for the 3 month package. Year+ contracts waive the fee. Also, from what I can see 1and1 is more ($9.99/month), but looks like a great option for a busy bandwidth hog, like soulstrut.

I'm interested in hosting multiple domains too, so I'm going to research a bit more. Let you know if I find out anything else.

I ended up signing up with 1&1. I got 1 domain with 6 months hosting and another domain for a month or some shit..I already forget after looking at so many different hosting sites. Now, that I have signed up, I am trying to make sense of it..I dont know shit when it comes down to hosting and putting up a site. They have all of these site builder templates and things like that. Can't I just write my own html and upload it to my space or my ftp or something?
