I'm looking for a cheap and reliable web host service. Any suggestions?

bluehost is pretty good if you're not doing anything too serious.

I have a VPS and can probably loan you some space/bandwidth if you like.

Wow, thanks, that's generous. Ideally I'd like to futz around with PHP and SQL but if I can't get SQL access on your VPS I would understand. In that case PHP would be enough. What do you think?

Well, it's a VPS so I can do whatever I want.  Making you your own MySQL account would be trivial.  I'd probably just create you a user account and a MySQL account and let you go at it.  Do you have a domain?  If not, you'd have to live with ender.sidoh.org or something... which is just awkward. lol

Amazon Web Services Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) offers micro instances for free right now.
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.
