    Default Any suggestions for web hosting sites? I want to create my own online portfolio.

    I've used Yola for the last 3 years, it's fairly simple and I can customize many aspects. Importantly, they offer a really great price to own your own domain. HOWEVER, they are changing the template through which slideshows are displayed and because my site is all about artwork I hope to find something better suited.

    I have used many hosts over the years, but for the past few years, I have used Liquid Web - and it is by far the best hosting experience I have ever had.

    if you're mainly looking for a hosted portfolio template site, there are tons of options out there.
    I've heard good things about Behance's Prosite. and Carbonmade seems to have a lot of fans.

    Wow, thank you all for the recommendations. I'm working on checking out all of these options. Behance is looking pretty attractive. Nice price too!

    We're trying out a Cargo site right now...it seems to do what I want it to (look nice and clean with fairly intuitive navigation) and isn't too difficult to get in and mess with the code to make adjustments. I feel like our needs are pretty basic though.
