Can you recommend or link me to any particular hosting co?

This is the one I've been looking at. They appear quite user-friendly,

Hopefully the pages would change quite often as people post ads.
Besides, I don't want any more headaches or challenges just yet.

Thanks for your reply

I've sent you an e-mail as I could sort you out a hosting package, but
don't like posting blatant plugs in newsgroups.

It sounds like sex, but they're not using Google Groups. Do I have to
assume that the term "Google Groups sex" (which shouldn't be mistaken
for Google group sex) comes from you own imagination then, and if so,
care to elaborate on how it got there?
