Fuck no don't go with Dreamhost. Sure they are 9 dollars a month until they accidentally charge you for 2 years of hosting by accident. The downtime I get is ridiculous, and the servers are so effin' slow.

Look into reseller accounts around some forums. Super cheap and you can usually find some good reviews.

Yeah... when you said you had no time to backup... stop BSin yourself. There is plenty of time when you sleep to put that shit on auto.

I've had no problem with dreamhost, and didn't get charged. Then again I don't do auto-billing. I had some downtime, but it's been better than 1and1 or Hostgator
 


here, have a dreamhost invite code: 066776801324

it gets you:
2TB disk, 20TB bandwidth/mo, includes a domain, and $150 off of 5 years, but that comes out to $267.
 
I signed up with a small orange on someone's recommendation a couple months back. I like them so far - they give you ssh with a $5 / month account, and they responded to my request to change my httpd.conf entry very quickly
 
I got tired with all that "great providers" and stuck with Uberhost. until now - love their support with human touch.
In fact - they are in Dallas data center and are doing big deal with every customer.
 
got a dreamhost account before, but the downtime is just not so pleasing I transfered with 1and1 since, although they sucks sometimes, they are somewhat improving when it comes to answering my never ending questions...
 
I use dreamhost .... Quick good but the only problem is that they won't allow any damn cracked scripts.So just mind that.Also they are not insane like Hostgator to delete whole of ur database if u use any nulled script.They will only block the site which uses it :D
I think dreamhost is quite good..
 
As for your dead laptop - What died? Motherboard? Screen? Or Hard Drive? If HDD have you tried Spinrite? Or take the drive from the laptop, add a external case that costs $20 and try it as an addondrive to your new one? The data is probably still there just the boot files are broken.

Remember Google might have the cache of newest pages.

And always run backups at least once a month. So many cheaper hosts somehow dont have them when you need them. Like Cirtex (dont use them)
 
I host with nynoc [aff link], but if you're looking for cheap reseller hosting I'd look at reseller zoom. Both of these companies offer great support.
For backups, however, you're better off addressing the risks yourself rather than leaving it up to the host.
 
for dedicated I use the planet... for cheaper hosting that doesnt need a dedicated solution go with Host Gator.
