    There are tons of web hosting companies and domain registrars or whatever.
    It depends on what you need.
    How much space you need. How much traffic...
    How much you are willing to spend.
    If you want a reliable web host or one with very good customer service.
    Or maybe you want a host with a few features...or one that supports many different things!
    www.google.com
    Search web host.
    You can also buy your own server...much cheaper...

    If you are really lazy....I would like to know about you website interests and what you are looking for...

    I use www.poehosting.com. Domain for one year is $9, server space runs $10/mo under their "B" plan. It's ideal, if not overkill, for what I need it for (a personal webpage).

    I've got a cable modem and a Windows 2000 server with IIS running on it. It's been very cheap, reliable and pretty fast hosting my own website.

    I use Dynu for dynamic DNS (since my IP changes on cable) and I registered my domain with network solutions a few years ago and eventually transferred to www.godaddy.com - very cheap and cool - $7.95 for a one year transfer.
