...I am looking to set up 2 websites and transfer two other ones from a different hosting company.

"Of these three I would recommend Bluehost (or Hostmonster since they're basically the same company, just a new brand).

Transfer a databse from dreamhost to godaddy?...

...I created a joomla site in dreamhost. I would like to transfer it over to godaddy. I have already installed joomla on godaddy but it is a blank site, to move all my content over I have to transfer my database? All I kow is that I have access to myadmin on dreamhost...but how do I get it from that database to godaddy? I found an export but had no idea what the settings were so I just clicked export and it gave me a myfile.sql.zip file...is this what I need?

"You're on the right track. It sounds like you were able to get into the phpmyadmin for Dreamhost - go back into there and try exporting again, but this time choose None for the compression type. (The radios near the bottom of the page.) You should be given a file called something.sql. Next you will need to find out how to set up a sql database on GoDaddy, and then get into the phpmyadmin for that guy. Then you go to the import tab, browse for the .sql file, and wala, your database content is moved."

I need to know more about web hosting?...

...I want a website similar to Craigslist where people from different states can find their cities and advertise. They would need to be able to upload pictures, and receive emails. I also want people to be able to use Paypal on my site. What kind of web hosting company would I need to lay out this kind of website?

Also, I know NOTHING about designing my own website, so I would need a web hosting company that would trouble shoot with me and have easy instructions in designing my website.

"chaunci ...

Sounds like you need Yahoo web hosting, which we've used for years ( http://bit.ly/cHSop ), and are very pleased with. Yahoo ISP offers great price, free domain name, unlimited disk space, unlimited data transfer, unlimited email storage, 24-hour customer service, reliable hosting, PayPal, troubleshooting, great website design tools, etc.

Web hosting programs?...

...i want to build a website and gain profit from it through advertising, i'm not selling anything. is it a good decision to go with a web hosting program to achieve this? will they take anything out of my profit? what is a really good web hosting program?

"There aren't any web hosting programs; there are web hosting companies. Let me tell you a little about my experience with web hosting companies over the years. At times you will come across deals that are almost too good to be true - cheap web hosting with amazing features! There are hosts that while offering cheap prices do back that up with excellent performance and service, but there are things to be noted:

There are a lot of potential questions you must ask yourself, whilst bearing in mind other peoples reviews, their reputation, and ultimately - the price. I personally use http://www.top15hosting.com to read web hosting reviews and see what web host is getting the best reputation as well as the bad, which helps me decide who to stay away from.

Your experience might be different but I have many complaints from PowWeb and Dot5Hosting. Those companies just took my money and provided me with bad customer support and my websites would always be down. Today I use Just Host for my web hosting and I’m very satisfied. As long as you do a little research before buying your web hosting you will be fine."
