What I've usually heard is don't have your domain registrar also be your site host.  Like GoDaddy.  Apparently some people have had problems with the host not letting them move the name registration when switching hosting providers.  Or vice versa. I don't have any experience with that. I've either self hosted or, like now, have co-located hardware.
