Personally, I cannot live with a shared hosting solution. Everyone's always complaining about not having so-and-so a feature (including me), so I just got myself a virtual-dedicated box. That was the best thing I ever did. Linode is the greatest company ever. Not the cheapest form of hosting, or the easiest/most accessible, but the best. The staff there are quick, knowledgable, and any problems with the hosts are quickly resolved. I think the reason the level of quality is so good is that it is a few-man operation with a low number of customers.
I've used Fasthosts and Dreamhost...
Fasthosts is reliable and reasonably priced if you need standard hosting and not much access to any of the more complicated settings. Problems? If you need any extras, like more mySQL databases, you usually have to pay something stupid to bolt it on to your hosting. 24hour support by phone also very handy.
If you need more space (the basic package now comes with 20gigs and unlimited domains for $9.95/month!) or advanced controls for subdomains, mail servers, ftp etc etc then Dreamhost is an amazing deal. I even managed to get the first year for peanuts, and a domain name registration is included as long as your account is active. Problems? Well there is the odd server or database outage but nothing more than you would expect from any other host.... Also the only support is by email so sometimes you have to wait a few hours for an answer.
