I have used GoDaddy for about 1.5 years. I haven't had a problem with them.

I started my sites with Velcom.com, they're cheap. Don't expect great service. Their service was fairly dependable, I didn't have any huge technical problems with them and my sites seems to be up most of the time. But if you're needing extra hand-holding or advice, forget it. When I needed that I moved to ChiliHost, best service I've ever had from a host. Luke's the best.

Cheers
