DNS needs to be hosted somewhere reliable. AWS Route53 works for me. If the DNS goes down everything else is down too.

Web hosting should be hosted where web hosting is the focus and security/updates top to bottom are covered too.

Maybe email doesn't matter. If the email isn't critical, bundling with the free tier of a provider such as using Godaddy for DNS + some free email accounts works just fine.

A real corp would prefer email solution such as o365.

Middle tier = I still recommend LuxSci. HIPAA focused not required, and still great responsive tech support.
Thanks for your clear answer. The one thing I wonder now, is the part I emphasised in red and bold: would you rather trust your webhost to also take care of the domain registration, rather than your domain registrar also taking care of the web hosting?

I already registered several domains I want to use, I am not sure if I should rely on my registrar to also host the websites I am wanting to launch.
