Gone through many cheap hosts. Dreamhost seems to be among the best of the bunch. Very hard to rate reliability ... reliably. Everyone has problems from time to time.

I went through the billing fiasco with them as well and I still have a couple of sites hosted with them. They are adequate for the sites I have hosted with them. I am mildly annoyed by their insistence on using their own homegrown control panel rather than a more established one like cpanel or plesk though. It took me 10 minutes to figure out that mysql admin functions were under the "Goodies" heading. I have recommended them to friends who don't have a lot of heavy duty requirements though.

Thank you for your candid review of Dreamhost. I had considered switching to them after hearing they are reliable. Now I think I'll reconsider.

I am not a big fan of dreamhost, simply because I would say to a lot of people "hey your site was down when i went to look at it!" and they would reply with "yeah, I'm having some issues with dreamhost right now"...

I've been using 1and1 for months now after a hellish experience with godaddy and I love them - I've got 7 domains on one hosting package I pay $5 a month for. They're cheaper for domains also. They have an affiliate program too - I'll spare you the link but they honestly are worth checking out if you care about being on a budget and having your sites up :)
