I am in the process of making a website and I have no clue about it. I figured by researching that I have to buy a domain name, buy hosting services in order to launch a website. I have seen few website offering domain name, hosting service, website template and free add ons such as advertising vouchers for google, facebook etc.

I am confused which one to go for as I think getting it all in one package will be easier for me to manage. I will be selling ladies clothing on my website so I want the checkout and paypal. Preferrably I also want to accept cards but I don't know how to get that feature on the website.
Can you techy people please look into my different options and choose for me as which one to go for. I will be selling four different kind of clothing so I don't really want high tect-long website. Just simple and easy to use. Some of them are American companies from the above list. If you have any other suggestions for different companies then let me know.

Whichever host you plump for, make sure they have OScommerce as a plugin.
Somebody mentioned it here last week and I had a look at it and it's just plain excellent.
Accepts paypal express (shopping cart - pay with paypal).
If you knew what you were doing, you could have a shop up and running in an hour.0 -
Have a look at https://www.hostsphere.co.uk. They are a UK company with UK servers, support is second to none.Estate Agent, Web Designer & All Round Geek!0

I can recommend Hostmonster, I have used them for about 4 years and never ever had a problem, no one has ever complained about the site being slow or down and the cpanel is easy to use. The only downside is that you cannot have a co.uk domain name for free but I use 123reg to buy co.uk domain names (only a few quid a year) and host the sites at Hostmonster.0
