There are so many web hosts out there, and it's often hard to decide the best course to take. Some hosts offer "unlimited" bandwidth, but you'll often find that this is far from the truth. Some hosts offer amazingly low prices, but when you go to set up an SQL database, upload an .htaccess file, or run server-side scripts, don't be surprised if the feature is disabled for the account you purchased.
It's frustrating, to be sure.
So...what's the solution? There are two really great webhosting companies out there. ThinkHost is certainly the best overall deal, but Godaddy offers a number of good deals as well.
Web hosting is never an easy decision, but if you are on a tight budget and need a decent number of features for the price you pay, I think I've found the answer.
