I've heard good things about GoDaddy for registering domain names. For hosting, Verio is superb, but pricey. Their signature hosting accounts (http://signature-hosting.com/index.shtml) are their budget line of hosting, and if you don't need to muck about in the httpd.conf should do what you need. When you're looking for hosting, keep in mind that "you get what you pay for" is seldom more true than it is when it comes to web hosting. Dan
