Anybody have anymore input on this?
I was ideally looking for a company which offered both hosting and VPS. If my site takes off I could look at moving to VPS rather than having to pay the extra $ first.
Host Gator offers both hosting and VPS but Linode gets better reviews for its VPS.
Media Temple has a mix of good and bad reviews. I cannot work out if there have substituted decent hosting for a lovely website.
Webfaction is a great hosting platform with a superior interface with always the possibility to upgrade to a server for yourself.
