My wife and I have a few sites. She has one in Pinellas (Largo?) from
what used to be linuxenhancement.com. They have changed their name
and/or been bought-out at least twice. They have attempted to be
helpful, but she has had too many problems for me to give them a
whole-hearted recommendation. If you go to www.linuxenhancement.com
right now, you get a "500 Internal Server Error".

I have a simple site (no shopping cart, no database, no shell access)
with webdomains4u.com. I don't know where it is, but it works.
Admittedly, I can't vouch for their ability to keep a database running.
  They do have full-featured accounts for higher fees; for my
stripped-down service I pay $8.95/month with 25 email address (POP or
forward) and 40MB of web space.

I registered my domain name through www.gkg.net for $8.95/year.
