I've been doing quite a lot of research about that the last few days and I'm
just about settled on www.dreamhost.com

Their smallest plan starts at around $10 p/m and includes most things you
might need (MySQL / CGI / PHP / SSI / shell acounts with SSH / free domain)
And they have a 'code warrior' plan too which is pretty neat ;)

People (searching google groups) generally have good things to say about
them - friendly support, they don't automatically shut your site down if you
exceed your bandwidth quota, etc
