And if you are interested, U can use the promo code "twi5" to get $50 off on hosting! I've had my sites on dreamhost and what I particularly like about them is the prompt customer service. I've been with a couple of other hosts before but nothing beats DreamHost ;o) since you asked, DreamHost is one of the best hosting providers out ther.

I have been with them for about 3 years and I have been very satisfied. I switched from a service that was 11 times as expensive. The 2 times I had problems, I set up a trouble ticket and it was addressed within 20 minutes (usually after midnight), and they worked with me to fix the problem. The price is good for me, it totals to $6 a month (for 3 years) for 750GB and 7,500GB txfr and $16 a year for the domain. I'm NOT a high volume site though, we usually have around 2,000 hits a month, so I can't tell you if it's good or bad for big sites like this <em>excellent</em> one.

One thing I love is that they have written their own admin panel (i loathe cPanel) which makes things easier and a lot nicer looking. Last month I used about 5TB of bandwidth and that's with the "standard" plan. I’ve had DreamHost for a few years now and I haven’t got anything to complain about with them.

What I ment to say good hosts usually charge more than most of the other hosts, like those that offer plans with unmetered bandwidth for 5.95$ a month. Not being cheap is a relative term here.
