Hi Mani, I've been a happy customer of NameCheap for many years, it's great choice for domain registration, their pricing is very affordable ( in fact, oftentimes it is the cheapest you can find anywhere), its customer support is there whenever I need help w/ sth, and the service is reliable.

As for hosting, I believe namecheap offers that as well, but I only use it for domain registration.

Depending on what kind of hosting you're looking for, I like WebFaction for shared hosting; or DigitalOcean (my absolute favorite) for VPS hosting.

I can also agree, NameCheap is my go-to for domains, and I currently use and love DigitalOcean for hosting. It's actually not that hard to set up a droplet, I've found DigitalOcean has fantastic tutorials to set up almost any environment you'd want.
