Best Webhosting service

So I've been looking into starting a website for a project of mine. And while looking for a good hosting service, I stumbled upon one called Fat Cow. Has anyone ever used these people? It almost sounds too good to be true. Here's a site that reviewed their services FatCow Web Hosting Review - Top10HostingList.com.

If no one's used this what's an inexpensive yet good hosting service? I'm sick of blue host and go daddy and am looking for a positive change.

While I don't have a website myself, I've seen this question asked many times on the forums.
The general consensus is usually 1&1
Web Hosting Services and Domain Name Registration : 1&1 Internet Inc.

Yea, a friend suggested 1&1 to me... but then I found that Fat Cow deal, which I half don't believe... unlimited storage and bandwidth?

Seen a ton of 1&1 and a few Fat Cow ads, but know little about their reliability, etc. Go Daddy's TV ads are interesting, but I don't know that much about them either.

to KK,

it's consensus !

The site is going to be a general me site, it'll have an e-resume with some of the projects I've done. It'll also be the home of a music project for my band (I've been writing a rock opera for 3years). There will be some streaming audio and blogging capabilities.

At this point I'm expecting no more than 3 SQL tables with moderate data in each. I intend to use JS, AJAX, and PHP to build the entire site. FTP, HTML and CSS are no strangers to me... I actually hate most dashboards services provide; because I feel it hinders me more than helps.

i like 3ix.com. its really cheap for the basic plan. US$1 a month and you get a whole bunch of goodies.

Not unlimited bandwidth and space, but 100GB is more than you will ever need. 40GB of space. thats pretty darn good. you will never use more than a gb anyway. I manage 100mb/month. the download speeds hit 200kbps too. not bad. All for $1 a month

www.3ix.com - 3iX provides reliable web hosting, 1 dollar web hosting, cheap web hosting
