I am currently using Yahoo as my webhosting, but I want a less restrictive host. Anyone with experience please. I am specifically looking to have full use of SSL, and .htaccess files
I am looking for the most compatable webhost for OsCommerce. Not the best.

best will depend on a lot of things.
You want to co-locate your own server someplace? You want to rent an entire server? You want a virtual host sharing a server with other domains?
You want directory space under the hosting company’s server?
How much support do you want? Consulting/debugging? Other added services?
And how much are you willing to pay, and how long a contract are you willing to sign?
best will depend on all these things….
If you like to create websites (usually you will end up more than 1 website, I got more than 100 websites in about 6 months’ time), go for multiple web hosting services where you could host all your websites in one account.
I would like to suggest following webhosting which I use, they are excellent.
