Don't let hosting stop you. I sart people on dreamhost with the L1 
Monthly if they are just getting their feet wet (I give them code 
"tenbucks" to get it for $10). That's $10 to be all set with no 
commitment. For those doing a website from the start, I give out code 
"try92" which is $92 off the prepaid year, which means you get that 
first year for something like $25.

If you are a developer or coder you are very likely to switch hosts or 
add another hosting account in your first 6 months, so don't sweat the 
start and just get going. You can spend forever picking a webhost (or 
reading about advanced PHP issues - lol) but it's all about jumping in 
and trying.
