Spudd - Yes, GoDaddy's private registration is good if you're paranoid about your contact details.

mOrphine - HostPC.com is associated with Dixiesys.com and they have received good reviews on WHT.
 
I recommended them based on that and similiar threads.

So far he's had no luck with the registration process, I hope he switches to dathorn.com

Hey guys, I want to register my first domain and have someone host it for me. I think I am going to register it at namecheap.com as that seems to be the cheapest place. But what do I need to do after that? What webhosting companies are the best for the buck? I dont need anything great, jsut cheap. Any suggestions?


Update: I registered my domain at namecheap.com and signed up for hosting at MelitaWeb. Had some trouble with them. Requested to cancell and get my money back this morning and they pretty much blamed it on my ISP. Still cancelled service with them and they gladly did what i requested, but without a sorry. Signed up with dathorn right after that and already got my account info and able to log in. Very quick. Wish I had taken heed at RossMan advice and gone with a more reputable host.

Thanks for the update, glad everything went well with dathorn.

Now you just have to wait for propogation and you'll be ready to roll!
