I use dreamhost @ $10 or so/month for unlimited bandwidth & space plus
1-click installs.
I would recommend them.

Hi Peachey, thank you. I hear GoDaddy is for those who don't need technical
support, ie. those who can handle their own problems. Yes, I also hear that
Dreamhost is good.
What do I mean by "I have to set up my own database manually"? Usually when
you set up your wiki, the program will help you install your database. But
with Hostgator, it says that there is no database. I asked Hostgator about
it and they say I didn't create my database. I have to go to Cpanel and
then
create the database, using the Database Wizard. I don't have this problem
with my two other webhosts.
I am now looking at
Serverpoint.com, previously known as
APlusHosting.com.
It's price is midrange, not the cheapest nor the most expensive. But I am
tired of technical problems, so I don't mind paying a bit more.

You might like to look at Minthost <http://minthost.co.uk/> and
i've
heard of GoDaddy and DreamHost success stories, but what do you mean
by "I have to set up my own database manually"?
