+1 for Webfaction.
You get a shell, a gazillion different application types (CGI, Rails, PHP, Django, custom). You can compile Apache and/or MySQL and configure a custom port for it.
Their support is responsive. Service has competitive pricing. I've been with them for three years and haven't experience any outages.
- leif 17y agoI've also been with them for quite some time. I originally got it because I wanted something cheap with django hosting, but I've stayed because they offer plenty of different setups and have great customer service. My credit card thought they were fraud a couple of times and stopped payment, and the Webfaction guys were very understanding about it, and kept my sites up while I worked my way up the bank chain trying to convince them that I actually wanted to pay them.
- cfinke 17y agoAnother vote for WebFaction. I've tried half a dozen hosts over the years, and WebFaction is the best one so far.
- j_baker 17y agoI've actually had webfaction before and was quite satisfied with them. However, I was wanting to use something with just a little bit more hackability. Thus, I'm looking for a VPS which will allow me root access.
