I started off using HostGator, then moved on once I realized they were very expensive and support took days at times.
HostBig.com- back in 2010- they were/are super cheap. For some reason my Joomla site kept going down and the database corrupting. I'm not sure whether that was Joomla or HostBig.
I can not remember my first that was about 5 years ago, and it closed down too. And in recent times, I'd say holderhost was the first one among the sites I am hosting with right now.
Host Ultra, back in 2003. Left them once my site started getting too big for their servers.
