Cheap but reliable host for very simple site

I use pair networks. cheap, basic, reliable, been with them a year with no problems. altho like most budget hosting plans they are generally short on support. they also do registration but you need to know this:


"When shopping for a domain, it is also important to keep an eye open for domain name scams. The surging popularity of domain name affiliate programs has created countless "fly by night" operations; dozens of domain name resellers worldwide cease operations every month, often leaving the administrative status of the domains they leave behind up in the air. Making a purchase from a reseller is not a bad decision, but make sure to research the company's history and credentials. There are less than 170 ICANN-accredited registrars (that is, non-resellers) for .com, .net and .org domains worldwide; a full list is available here:"

I register my domain name thru register.com. not cheap, but no problems.

Check your ISP. Most offer web space at little or no cost. Do you really need a domain name? Your site sounds very small. Just another alternative

I tried Aplus and I really don't understand how they got an editor's high rating. Issues:
1. Abhorrent security problems. When my share was hacked into and vandalized they tried to blame it on my FTP password which was plenty long and has worked well before that time. Also, my site was, at the time, nothing that a hacker would even want to try to get into unless they could just walk right in - which they did.

2. I purchased a plan for $20/month which included ASP support(Windows plan). I did some ASP programming in the beginning but then it was just html for 5 months or so. When I went back to put up some more ASP pages I found that I no longer had ASP support. When I called them about it, they told me my plan never had ASP support at all. I actually have a printout of the default page that they put up when you first activate your share and it states clearly that I was supposed to have ASP support. It was funny how my ASP support went awat right around they time they were launching that focacta(sp?) online photo storage garbage.

3. Get Hostway. I've been nothing but happy with their service and support. And, I am actually getting what I pay for.
