http://www.goldpuma.com is the lowest cost service which is full-featured and really works for you ($3.99 /month). They accept monthly payments.

But if you’re looking for the best service on the web, as an experienced webmaster I recommend BlueHost service which I’m sure it would work for you and fulfill all your requirements. They have a really great offer for hosting & I have used them for over 3 yrs now, and have never had a single problem with them.

They offer a Full-featured service only $6.95 a month. You can see their Plan Details accompanied with reliable reviews regarding their service at:
http://www.threehosts.com/reviews/1st

Here I have copied and pasted its features from their website to view:

- Free Domain Forever
- Unlimited Space
- Unlimited Transfer
- Host UNLIMITED Domains (Support All Domain Names)
- 2,500 POP/Imap Email Accounts
- SSH (Secure Shell), SSL, FTP, Stats
- CGI, Ruby (RoR), Perl, PHP, MySQL
- Front Page Extensions
- Free Site Builder
- 24/7 Superb/Responsive Sales/Support
- Free Search Engine Submission

They also offer "Free Site Builder" that helps you build your web pages without difficulty if you are not skilled in using any website creating program (WYSIWYG: What You See Is What You Get). You can use this service optionally.

******IMPORTANT*******
* This service was awarded “The Best Web Host OF The Year”.
* If you sign up for this service you will have $75 credits to advertise your website with the google & yahoo search engines for free!
* You Can Register A Free Domain or Use Your Existing Domains. They Support All Domain Names.

I have been very pleased with Dreamhost. Their regular service provides
- Unlimited Storage
- Unlimited Bandwidth
- Get one free domain with your hosting plan.
Many other great features (http://www.dreamhost.com/hosting.html).

You can use promo code MAX2009 to get $97 discount. So if you book one year plan it will cost you $22.40 (which is less than $2/month) including domain name and unlimited hosting for one year.

To create email on dreamhost go to: http://wiki.dreamhost.com/Email_Setup#How_do_I_add_an_email_address_at_my_domain.3F

Hope this helps.

With http://www.fatcow.com you can get a website for around 5 per month IF you go in search of promo codes. You get many email address with your .com as the extension.

They are so easy to use, I find godaddy to hard to manipulate.

Edited to add

I could not agree more with the user who said avoid Network Solutions. They are sky high, very hard to navigate and the customer service is the very worst!

When you get a web hosting account, they include email with it. You’d just login to a special admin page with your company and just simply create it by typing it into a box. Check out and see if godaddy.com has some deals going on. I registered a domain name with them and got free webhosting and 1 email address with them. 10 bucks and Im covered hosting, domain name and emeail addy for a full year. I prob wont get the free hosting next year.

Edit: Avoid networksolutions.com like the plague. They were the very first company (and at one point a monopoly on domain name game). They were 35.00 per year over 10 years ago, and there price still hasn’t changed.
