What Is The Best, Most Efficient Web Hosting Service?

I’m looking to start my own personal site. It’s already built, now I just need to find my own domain and a web hosting service. I don’t need any fancy services or anything like that, just something basic that can hold at least 1GB worth of web space, reliable connectivity, and at decent price/rate that’s reasonable per year/month. If anyone has any suggestions, or recommendations based on their own experience, I would really appreciate the help. Thanks!
I’ve been using Dreamhost for several years, in three years I’ve never had more than 12 hours of downtime. They have ridiculously high limits for space and bandwidth, and a ton of features, and they’ve always responded quickly to my support requests, and hosting is less than $10 a month. They’ve got a customer for life here.
Let me tell you a little about my experience with web hosting companies over the years. At times you will come across deals that are almost too good to be true – cheap web hosting with amazing features! There are hosts that while offering cheap prices do back that up with excellent performance and service, but there are things to be noted:
There are a lot of potential questions you must ask yourself, whilst bearing in mind other peoples reviews, their reputation, and ultimately – the price. I personally use http://www.top15hosting.com to read web hosting reviews and see what web host is getting the best reputation as well as the bad, which helps me decide who to stay away from.
Your experience might be different but I have many complaints from PowWeb and Dot5Hosting. Those companies just took my money and provided me with bad customer support and my websites would always be down. Today I use Just Host for my web hosting and I’m very satisfied. As long as you do a little research before buying your web hosting you will be fine.
http://www.goldpuma.com is the lowest cost service which is full-featured and really works for you ($3.99 /month). They accept monthly payments and support .ca extension.
bluehost
godaddy
justhost
simplehost
it’s really all the same when it comes down to basic hosting but I believe those are the most affordable
