[nylug-talk] OT: Shared Hosting Recommendation

[Brandorr]

If you want a step up and get your own XEN VM I really like slicehost.
 $20.00/month gets you a 256MB, 10GB HD, 100GB BW VM.  It's pretty
slick, as everything is automated, and they support 7 (and growing)
different distros: http://www.slicehost.com/

One of the things that I like after having tried a number of different
shared hosting options, is that they are very diligent about making
sure no one is abusing the systems, so you don't have to worry about
your quality of service. (They won't oversell, if they don't have the
hardware on site to give you a good experience, they will put you on a
waiting list).
