    This has probably been asked before, but I'm interested to see myself.
    Basically, I'm wondering where you host your sites, what packages, and what you think of the support :p
    I'm not after referral links, just opinions. Like GoDaddy, or HostNine or Livepulse.net ; anything like that.
    I'm looking to relocate, and I want to see where everyone else is :)

    Hmm... Godaddy has webhost?
    I never noticed. I thought it was only a domain host.

    I second that, godaddy is a horrible web host. They should just stick to domains.

    You must be living care free. What are your expences and initial investment per server? Shared hosting plus overselling equals nothing but problems. I'm with NetFirms

    I'm using HostGator... I've heard there's a lot of problems from them, but I haven't any yet so I'm quite happy with them. :)

    I stay away from big companies that oversell.

    I have been hosted with www.downtownhost.com for over a year.
