What’s the best web hosting option for a one man business?

I don’t need ecommerce.
I would want at least one e-mail address.
Storage: a lot
Data transfer: a lot

i don’t know a lot about this kind of stuff so that also may give you information

Chosen Answer:

Right now IX are the best out there. http://webhosting.moneysavecenter.com

They offer everything that the rest offer plus 8 Individual IP Addresses, free 0 in advertising clicks, and free domain names for just a month.
I didn’t get the free domains as I don’t like having my domains in the same place as the hosting, nor did I get the free 0 as I was already a member of all the PPC companies, yet I still got a better deal as I get unlimited everything AND the dedicated IP addresses.
Plus I get reliability, which is something that’s difficult to come by.

    I would suggest you to take a look at Microsoft Office Live Small Business. Office Live is a free service that has an easy to use online web designer tool with templates which allows you to know how to do HTML/CSS coding. It comes with 500 MB of storage and was designed for small business such as yourself. It is an all-in-one internet toolkit designed to help give you a professional web presence – it includes free email, contact manager, email marketing (add-on) and a store manager (add-on). There’s no bandwidth limitation either.

    Since it is from a big brand (Microsoft), you can be sure that the right privacy and security policies are in place (unlike many other places on the internet where breach of privacy is quite prevalent). Microsoft is currently offering a free domain name (i.e. yourdomain.com) for the first year. Of course, if you prefer, you can always use the free provided subdomain name. Try it out:

    only $1/month, plenty of features, and the ability to add more space/bandwith if you really need it in the future

    I would use http://www.NeedAWebDomain. I have a 7 year old cousin who set up his site with that so it must be easy.

    Its cheap and theres not a whole lot of gook in their. Good storage and data transfer.

    Good thing i like most is NO contract. Some hosting companies lock you into 2 years. Ok what if you want to change domain and move into another direction. You can cancel anytime and get your remainding money back which is great.
    I started a website for shoes then didnt want to do that anymore now I sell cell phones.

    I recommend Dreamhost http://www.dreamhost.com/hosting.html

    They’re the best:

    1. You get a free domain from them (actually 2 if you use the promo code, more about that later)
    2. They have 500 GB of Disk Space and increasing
    3. 5TB (5000 GB) of Bandwidth and increasing
    4. You can use their huge Disk Space and host multiple sites on a single account.
    5. Their price is $119.40/year ($9.95/month if you pay yearly)
    6. Which is a pretty standard price but they currently have a promotion:
    Use the Promo Code: PLUS (at sign up page) and get a $50 discount + 2 Free Domain Names
    7. This way you get them for $69.40/year ($5.78/month)

    I suggest your try http://lunarpages.com

    Once your settled in at your new host I suggest you store your files offline at this site http://eatbytes.com in order to save on bandwidth costs. Files are hosted on a 1000Mbit unmetered port.

    Try http://www.iukhost.com

    200MB Webspace
    2GB Bandwidth.
    Unlimited E-mail accounts
    Unlimited Databases

    If its a small site it will not use a lot of either.
