I mean,what will I look for in choosing a plan? hostgator's cheaper and he got unlimited diskspace compared to websitepalace's 150gb and more expensive price. it sounds like hostgator has the upper hand.. so,will i choose hostgator's plan?

I Plan in Sticking to these two plans to make my choice. But of course, maybe there's someone out there who can promote another plan who can beat these two. take note of the price range pls.. LOL

Can anyone give me a Very nice, and 'for noob' advice..

Thanks so much.
