Cool 1and1.com

I apologize if someone's mentioned this already, but I like:

1&1 Internet Inc. - Web Hosting Services and Domain Name Registration

Now...they're cheap, and I have had very few problems with them. I have heard that other folks just HATE them, particularly people who buy and sell domain names.

The only real troubles I've had with them:

1. Their tech support has a lousy VOIP connection and few of them speak fluent English. It's better to communicate with them via email, but it takes them a long time to respond.

2. Their tech support, often, has no idea what they're talking about. (I know this is not unique - but simple issues like MXNAME...? Come on, now.)

3. A friend of mine registered a domain with them using my credit card. When he decided to drop the domain, he had to close the whole account...there was no may to strike the financial information.

Past that, I have many, many .coms registered at 1and1. They have 'em for $5.99 with free private reg. Renewal is easy and I have experienced almost no downtime on the ones with hosted sites.

Hope this helps a little.
