i dont recommend dreamhost. I signed up with them a month ago and have got nothing but slow servers both hosted and now upgraded to vps. Their customer service was lame when approached with the problem.

I echo pepe on this.. used dreamhost for a client once and was very unsatisfied.
I use bluehost for my personal site.. never had a single issue and have nothing but positive things to say.

I completely endorse Dreamhost. I use them for about 9 different sites of mine and they've been absolutely fantastic in all regards. Incredibly easy to use backend interface too.

I just want to grant all to a mysql user. I need to be able to do this.
will look at media temple also.

I've had a client switch from dreamhost due to issues with server usage, i.e. RAM and database usage, not just data or bandwidth
I use webfaction, and love them....

I've been with DH for over ten years now with only a handful of complaints and around 30 sites. Customer service is good, even from the uk - emails are fast etc. For the price I'm not sure you'd get better

what would be a good choice for a sort of web noob? I have several sites I need to set up myself for my own projects, will probably get web help eventually but what would be a good start for hosting and emails and all that fun stuff? I'm aware of DH and BH... you decide.

I prefer Blue Host but that's mainly because they offer 24/7 phone support. I like to be able to call on the phone to discuss issues.
Dream Host only offers email support to my knowledge.
In terms of reliability I think they're probably both very good.
My favorite is Media Temple, but they're around 3X the price. For that you get top-notch support and a serious commitment to transparency in how your data is handled. Spare me the (mt) BS please. Everyone is entitled to opinions. Thanks.
