Most ISPs' webspace is for personal use. ie family photos etc. If your looking to use it commercially, then if the bandwith gets out of hand you'll probably get shutdown. They do, however, look the other way especially with "small" business. Real estate agents, insurance agents, etc. I used one of my sites for coupons for my dry cleaning store. If your planning on doing ecommerce, you'll more than likely going to have to go dot.com.

This is really going to vary greatly amongst the ISPs. I know with my cable provider ATTBI they openly invite us to run a small business from our web pages. Naturally they start charging for used bandwidth if the business grows to such a level that it's using massive amounts of throughput. But that limit is pretty high. All in all they are very lenient with this policy.
