Question Domain name purchase + hosting

Ok Peeps, advice needed.
I want to buy a domain name and some cheap and reliable hosting for my business. A one-stop shop for the domain registration and hosting would be nice. (the domain I want is available and it is a .co.uk)
Cost is important and I don't need anything huge but more "bang for the buck" rather than absolute cheapness is an important factor too.

I look forward to any suggestions and recommendations from all you lovely experienced people

What about speaking to King Phoenix/i-Web Solutions? (our hosts)

I know he will sort you out a preferential rate for being a member here.

Re: Domain name purchase + hosting

One of my domains is with 123-Reg. Seems very efficient and fast. I don't have the hosting with them, but they seem pretty good value.

My other domain is with UK2-Net, but they seem much more expensive for hosting than 123.

Re: Domain name purchase + hosting

I'd agree with these guys; I-Web for the hosting, but they're expensive for domain name registration, so go with 123-Reg. Its easy to set the nameservers from there to point to I-Web.
