Hi im new around here so i figured i'd share this...

www.maxiehost.com

Nice cheap shared server. I have been using them for a month now with no problems. They off 1 year for $9.99, but you have to provide the domain named. So all in all i got a website for around $20.

It uses cpanel, and php 5. Support was almost instantly, and awesome help if your new to setting up a website. And this is the first host i have used without cron headaches. Only downfall is once a week you'll get about 30 minutes of lag.

hope this helps.

Why do you have 30 minutes of lag a week?

Apart from that, looks like a very nice, cheap host :)

They've been in business for over 4 years now, so despite their shady-looking website they're not exactly a fly-by-night operation. However, it's irritating not to see disclosure from them about their responsibilities (or lack thereof) to the customer, as I didn't see any vendor TOS on their site. They also don't appear to offer any common registrar services, and I can't find any real information about the company or, more importantly, the location and operating conditions of its data center. The price is right, though. :P

Well, that price is for an entire year, sounds pretty cheap to me.

They seem to be a subdivision of AYKsolutions. I checked their plans out, and they have some pretty good dedicated hosting deals.
