Excellent and instant tech support. |

Funnily enough I bought another domain (www.samchadwickphoto.com) just today from //www.namecheap.com. I paid US$8.88 for 1 year.
I'm also looking at Webhostingbuzz who have a special on at the moment see //webhostingbuzz.com/sharedwebhostingplans.html
The mini-plan is US$36 for a year with 1.5GB space and 30GB bandwidth. No setup charge either.
I'm not affiliated to either.
If you can do without Fantastico scripts or a funky interface then you might consider Irepublics. It's based in Malaysia. You pay US$26 per year for domain name registration but you get 333MB space for free. See //www.irepublics.com/hosting/details.html
Depends how much space you need and what you want to do with it. |

cheapest way to do it is to host it on your own
load Apache onto any computer and ur set to go off your own IP address.
purchase a domain name from GoDaddy for cheap and u have urself ur own personalized domain and webpage

Jodi - just noticed your comment 'from across the pond'. I used to live in the UK and so my current host is ukhost4u.
//www.ukhost4u.com/basic.html
1GB Web Space
50GB Monthly Transfer - good for people with large image files.
Basic hosting is GBP40 per year, which is not cheap, but I have found the support good. There is a telephone line if you need it, and there is the Fantastico scripts. |

Hmmm that's odd. I have been using them for over two years with no problem at all. I would give them a call. Once or twice I send an e-mail with not response, and just got on the phone.
