You could choose from these two :

www.host4cheap.org

or

www.whost.in

They both r reliable. And y purchase domain name from godaddy, u can purchase from these two also. It would be better if u purchase domain name+hosting altogether, IMO.

Sky is the limit for the word best :p

Microsoft.com / Google.com / Yahoo.com is also a web site... The type of web hosting they have can come close to the word best web hosting..

Neither we can afford that type of hosting nor we need that type of hosting...

The main thing is to understand the requirement of your :p How much space / bandwidth would be needed, what type of application you would be running or such !!!

And i want to even host a blog on the same website. How to go about it.

Get your self and domain... Buy or use free web hosting :p... Modify the DNS to park the web site in your hosting :) and install any blogging application :D

Refer to this page to clear all doubts regarding Hosting (Dont answer to that thread as it will be futile)

I'm currently having 2 domains with web space with OutpowerHosting (owned by forum Member Cyrus_the_virus)
I also have a domain (with web space) with Host4Cheap (owned by forum member Sukhdeep Singh)
Both are extremely reasonable, have great tech support and canbe streamlined to suit your needs (since you are already buying domain from go daddy, I advice you take web space from any of them)
Look for their threads in the bazaar section :)

You can create a sub domain to host your blog. For eg.
If your site name is
You can host your blog on:
blog.mybusiness.com

I am still confused over which webhost should i go.

My requirements are basic.

Want to use google apps.

Want to host a blog with my website.

Not much of visitors so less bandwidth i guess

I contacted host4cheap and i learned that they host thinkdigit.com. With the current state of this website with regular downtimes, i feel not to go with them.

Those apprehensions are for Webhosting comapnies who dont regsiter the domain in clients Name. We regsiter all the website in Client's name and address with Full control Panel for Domain management including always available

1. FreeDNS Management
2. Free WHOIS Protection
3. EPP or Transfer code without need to contact us for the same
