A colleague and I are trying to start up a photography company, mainly shooting portraits and weddings.

I did a search and didn't really find what I was looking for and those of you with professional webpages, I was wondering if you can point me into the right direction.

So the big question is, where should I go to host my webpage and why? I'm looking for a host that is reliable, fast, and has great technical support. It sounds like for most webpages 10MB of webspace should be fine?

Thanks and any advice will be greatly appreciated.

It looks like Bluehost Hosting has gotten good feedback from people. Any thoughts?

I've used them both in a reseller capacity as well as personal accounts for the past 5 years, great service and reliability.

I use steadfast.net after a good spell of research. I've been through a few hosts over the years as my needs change, but I've been the happiest overall with steadfast.

I've been very happy with hostgator.com - $7.95/month - unlimited storage and traffic and they have been very reliable and their tech support has been up to speed when needed.

If you're interested in them as a host please head to my website www.blackshadow.com.au and sign up by clicking the link below the Upcoming Gigs section on the right hand side.

I use JustHost.com everything is unlimited. Utilizes Cpanel which gives you amazing control over ever aspect of your website. Service is pretty good and best of all it is cheap. I paid 150 upfront and that covers my domain and hosting for 3 years. photo.brippeon.com/album.html (http://photo.brippeon.com/album.html)
