Steven,
This is great feedback! Great point on the regular "gotchas"
of inexpensive hosting features.

Andy,
I would add in
* Database account administration as a separate line item
* Application and O/S Logging strategies
* Systems and Application Monitoring, including security
* Non-Functional test strategies for security changes
Also maybe a line about things to avoid falling into, like phpMysqladmin,
cpanel etc ...
Cheers
Steve
