Looking for reliable site hosting

[Corrderio]

I've been trying to get my portfolio online over the weekend, but the one web host I attempted (MochaHost) is a pain in the ass so I'm curious what web hosting services people would recommend. I'm looking for a site that can support HTML, PHP, ASP.NET, and JSP.

Thanks in advance.

GoDaddy and Dreamhost usually have a good reliability history vs pricing for small-medium sites.

Hmm, no matter what JSP support is going to require a virtual or dedicated server it looks like.

Might be forced to pay extra for that since my current provider is giving me a hard time with connecting to my database through a Java program I wrote.

I use Nixihost for mine, and I like them a lot.

They're cheap, give receipts, and actually respond (promptly!) to emails... unlike my last host. Don't know much about the tech side though, my needs are pretty basic.

GoDaddy

I haven't been using GoDaddy for 2years+ now and while they were reliable and quick on support, I never experienced such a clusterfuck of a hosting interface before (and after). We also used GoDaddy for domain administration and it made me cringe everytime I had to log on.

No idea if it's still the same, but that experience made me back off from any US webhost. Nowadays I got my own box from www.linode.com (can't rave enough about them), but that would be overdoing it for your purpose.

http://www.justhost.com/ by far the best web hosting company I've tried (godaddy, fatcow, and others). I recommend it to all my clients.

I totally agree with Godaddy being a complete clusterfuck (although was pretty reliable). I moved everything to namecheap.com a few months ago and I'm really happy with them.

Sorry for the bump, but I just told my host to piss off and looking. And after my experiences with them I have one vital question:

For those of you that use your databases, how easy is it to connect to them through something like Dreamweaver or hard coding a Java/C# application? My previous host was so ass backwards with their database system I actually had to change my IP to access my database. And if that wasn't bad enough, even after doing that I couldn't access my database through Dreamweaver when I was making a PHP page.
