    You should consult their acceptable use policy.

    I think they have parked adult pages but thats the domain only, is it not? Content would be a different story with acutal content, You should read any hosts ToS and ask to make sure.

    For shared hosting HostICan, Lunarpages, and HostGator all allow adult content so long as it does not violate US law.

    I bought an adult domain name from them so I imagine they would also host it. The only problem I had was finding a credit card company.

    I don't think there is any problem with that. They have adult parking pages.

    Adult domain name and hosting porn with the hosting packages is 2 separate things. Just look at their EULA.

    Im pretty sure any registrar will allow adult material for registering domains. OTOH HOSTING the site at their servers with them you have to check each one to see if ok. Downtownhost and maybe godaddy don't allow adult. Godaddy hosting sucks anyways, don't get them.

    Yea Godaddy definitely doesn't unless they changed their TOS within the past three months. I contacted them few months back when I made my first adult site and they didn't allow it so I went with HostGator and have no compliants.
