If you are looking for your first web host let me steer you in the right direction. I've hosted sites with this provider for over four years and never had any problems.

Currently I have over 30 websites hosted on one account that costs me $7.95 per month

If you're looking for affordable web hosting for multiple web sites, this is one web host that I 100% recommend

THE most important factor is UPTIME

ALL Web Hosts will have periodic short downtime -usually for planned upgrades. During these downtimes your website will be offline. Some webhosts suffer from frequent unplanned downtime.

WARNING - Do not be fooled by "uptime guarantees"

This only means that if your site is offline for an unacceptable amount of time in any particular month, you'll get a free month of crap hosting as compensation
