I am using Bluehost and think they are pretty good. I have been with them for a couple of years now and have not felt the urge to change providers. This coming from a guy that used to own and run a web hosting company.

I am using "namecheap.com" to register my domain. I was looking for inexpensive here.

Bluehost is OK but their IP's get blacklisted a lot. Had a couple of clients that I moved off specifically for that reason. If your volume is low you may never notice but I don't recommend them for a business.

I set those clients up at 1&1 because their support is very good. Their new cloud products are actually really nice. They have 30 day free trials if you want to check them out.

My personal stuff is all run at linode but it is for the geekier among us.

Namecheap I use as my registrar and they have a really stellar (and free) dynamic dns service which I use for the stuff I run out of the house.
