I know hosting is such a broad topic and that you are well within your rights to lynch me for this post, but I really am looking for a new host.
What I would like is for you to quickly scan over my requirements, and if you are with (or just know of) a host that can offer a plan similar to my requirements, to list the hosts website here, along with any comments.

My requirements are along these lines:
1 GB Web Space
5 GB Monthly Transfer Volume
FTP Support
CPanel
PHP Support
MySQL Databases
Manage Multiple Domains
Multiple E-mail Accounts
IMAP & POP3 Support
WebMail
The host also needs to be reliable, have high uptime, etc.

Thanks in advance,
CBG.

That's a rather large chunk of space for the data transfer that you need. Ratios tend to be 1:10 and even higher for such a small plan. in fact, such small plans are not really "in fashion" anymore due to several factors.

Virtually all cPanel hosts should be able to more than fullfill your needs though, so you have lots of options.

I can personally recommend Hostgator.

It is, but I tend to use my host for file storage and I don't get an awful lot of traffic.

Thanks, I'll look into them.

Anyone else got any suggestions?

I can personally recommend www.clook.net - they have full Cpanel, multiple domain hosting etc, and their support is awesome - supprt ticket replies are always very quick - in fact there has been fun debate on their forums as to who had had the quickest replies - all measured in seconds not minutes!

Ok, I have looked at all these hosts and some others I found. Thanks for the pointers guys.

It seems to me that "incognitonetworks" have the best offer for me...

I use site5 hosting, been with them for awhile now. I can't say they have the fastest tech support, but the uptime on the server I'm on is amazing.

For low memory/bandwidth requirements like that, from my research, I would recommend sites such as 34sp.com or asmallorange.com. Just yesterday, I updated a page to my hosting review site (apart from a donation link, it is completely nonprofit and there are no referral or affiliate links):

Article: Host Cream: Best Internet Web Site Hosting Services

Very briefly, I very carefully search through Google results to see how many users like or dislike a host. It's taken hundreds of hours to compile the results. I had intended affiliate links beforehand, only to find that what appear to be the best hosts don't actually have any affiliate scheme.

I hope you find the information useful. But don't take it as 100% truth - there is certainly room for error in the data.
