My average wait for godaddy assistance is 2 min. and they only need help you once, unless you can't remember anything. I ftp whole sites from one place to another... databases... now that's a different animal and what I'm trying to learn..

I started Web Faction because they support long processes - Django in particular. They host a huge number of Django sites. They also provide a ton of software that all you have to do is turn on. You do everything through their control panel. Web sites, email, databases & applications. I found the system easy to use and there is a ton of documentation including screen casts. I was a Windows user when I started, too.
