markdc - I'm not sure how their customer service is - it's the company I'm going to switch my site over to. I'm not happy w/the amount of traffic my current host allows.

Sue - when you get a domain name thru the hosting company you choose it may not actually 'belong' to you, but to them. OR while they may offer the first year 'free', the subsequent years will cost you upwards of $15, $20 or more. GoDaddy has really excellent prices on their domain names & if you secure your domain name for 10 years - it averages out to $6.95 a year (not a bad run for $60.95, eh?). The most it would cost you (a year) is $8.95. Once you have a domain name at GoDaddy, you can use it at any hosting site you choose - you don't have to get a domain name thru the hosting site.
