    Yes you can. You might have to conveying the domain name, but as long as you have access to the domain, you CAN forward it to a website.

    Yes, you can use the existing domain name with any new host. You just need to log in to your domain’s control panel and enter your new host’s name servers.

    For hosting I recommend one of these: http://www.hosttell.com/

    Powweb is on a 50% sale – $3.88/month ($46.56/year), and you get a free domain from them.

    Godaddy doesn’t offer a free domain, but you can get one for $2.19 if you’re buying hosting from them, plus they also have a 20% money off coupon at the moment.

    Also try PapaTiger.com. They are GoDaddy business partner with the same harvest, customer support, but lower prices.

    I personally use GoDaddy, I unquestionably like them, they have brilliant customer support, who I have called a few times and emailed several times, as the whole web hosing and domain business was new to me at the time, go honest to them here http://www.jdoqocy.com/click-3323054-10386908 and look again, because to me they are by far the best of the best.
