[LUG] [OT] Can anyone recommend a good web host?

 

I'm fed up with 123-reg.co.uk for hosting, their mail server is 
annoyingly slow. They were alright just for simple HTML pages, but now 
I've learnt some more advanced web tools I want asp, php and SQL support 
from my host. I want to be able to setup a wiki and be able to test aspx 
pages I've written.

What hosts do you guys use? I'm looking for someone that's less than £5 
a month. I don't expect any traffic other than myself so download limits 
don't matter too much.

As I am completely new to web hosting and development, I have no idea 
how I would go about changing my host and web and mail accounts. Is it 
tricky? Are there fees involved? Could I even get one of the DNS on the 
internet to point to my home network (its not static IP, but could I use 
someone like www.no-ip.com and still keep my domain name sounddezigns.co.uk)

As you can see I dont know where to start, any help is appreciated, thanks

Andy
