I don't know what I should do, most of my traffic comes from the USA, should I buy a .com domain name or a cheap .co.uk one, or should i buy a cheap .co.uk one first then switch to .com after Iv'e upgraded my hosting account

If your traffic comes from the us i would say do a .com domain.

.co.uk has a 2 year registration requirement so you have to pay for 2 years up front.

i will go for .com in a month or two, I could also move host as ulmb hosting packages are not what I want.
What I don't like about them is they don't come with a free domain name which most hosts do, plus I would never use all that space and bandwidth which would be a waste of my money
Thinking of using streamline they are cheap but read some good and bad reviews

Their prices are in uk pounds. so thats about twice the us dollar amount, only php4 (thats 3 years out of date so many scripts wont work) much less space then we offer, only one domain, limited or no subdomains. They are in the UK, so if most your visitors are from usa the speed will be slower.

seeing it that way makes a difference, but I still would like to get a domain name while buying hosting but I will live
