----------------------------Original message----------------------------
I am looking for a commercial domain and web host for a library
organization.  Most hosts are similarly priced, and the consumer
feedback and review articles I've been looking at are mostly geared to
people looking for a dialup ISP, rather than a domain and website host.

This is for a relatively modest site - 10 megs would probably be plenty,
and most hosts are offering considerably more than that in their base
package.  The major considerations are speed and reliability, since the
prices I've seen so far are similar enough that they are not a major
consideration.

So...anyone want to recommend a host or point me to a site with reviews of
hosts?  Or conversely, would anyone like to warn me off from a particular
commercial host?

TIA.
