I am currently unhappy with the company hosting my website, can anyone offer input as to whom they have used(preferably photography oriented) and if they are happy or not with them(average pricing would be helpful too). Also I have seen some amazing flash sites, can also suggest web designers.
Thanks

smugmug.com professional site. About $150 per year with easy uploads and gallery creation and a built-in shopping cart feature that allows you to set individual print prices.

Im in the UK but use an american site
http://www.ifp3.com/ph​otography/examples.cfm (external link)

Very cheep the functions are fantastic the stats show you what galleries have been looked at what pictures have been viewed and what pictures have been viewed for purchase.
You can do this for any day, week of the year. The uploading is very fast and its unlimited as to how large your uploads are.
It also has a built in shopping cart that you set to your own needs.

Me too - www.hostgator.com (external link) - best service i've ever had from a web host, and great prices too. It costs me about $10/month and I get about 2 million hits per month on my various websites.
