I highly recommend Hostgator. After coping with larger websites with terrible technical support or terrible uptime, I feel I've found a highly reliable and very approachable webhost. Uptime is excellent and the interface isn't obtuse. Best of all, the tech support is very responsive. There was an instance where a spambot attack forced Hostgator to take my site offline. When this happened with GoDaddy, their response was to shut me down entirely, without any warning. Hostgator gave me that warning and, calling their tech support late on a Sunday night got me in touch with a real human being who identified the problem and had my site back online within twenty minutes. Subsequent tech support costs have been resolved to my satisfaction. I highly recommend this host.
