Background story: I plan to create my own website for personal reasons as well as personal gratification. I plan to use it for either my political ramblings, or something bigger (if it is that "bigger" thing, it will probably require more than just me even though I have some personal experience with coding for websites layouts...etc.) If anything, it will showcase what I have done with my studies and interests, and may be a good way to say, hey, I've actually registered my own domain name, and have hosted it online, where I am showing you many of the things I've done leading til now.
However, I am unfamiliar with the process of getting domain names and what sort webhosting should I be looking at. I'd assume getting a domain name is typically cheap ($10-15.) However, getting a cheap and reliable webhosting, I am unsure about that. I'd assume [MENTION=8936]highlander[/MENTION] knows a lot more about webhosting?
There is just so many places that ICANN lists that I can register from, that i'm unsure about where to be going or registering my website name and where I should be hosting such a website.
