I've got a small VPS in the Netherlands that's costing me $60/yr [it was
$30 before I added some disk space].

https://inceptionhosting.com/

Large collection of available OSes, great support.

They also have a data center in the US, if you prefer.

I agree. Their web hosting looks package looks good. But their VPS plan
is way too expensive. If anybody is thinking going that route, try
.

They start at $10 a month & charge by the second so you can spin up an
instance for a couple of hours if you need to test something for next to
nothing. I've been using them for six months & have had no down time
whatsoever.

Also, apart from bare metal machines, they do desktop distros also but
no Macs unfortunately, only Linux. Still ssh or git doesn't know nor
care either way if you're just using bare metal ;-)

I totally agree.  pair gives you a bonafide UNIX login which works nicely with 
a BBEdit worksheet.

It's easy to set up reusable bash or tcsh command lines that use SCP to allow 
local editing of stuff stored at pair. You can create a ,ssh directory at pair 
and populate it with your public RSA code in authorized_keys. No other log in 
needed after that.

i almost just moved all of my accounts (personal + client = 100+) to 
bluehost, until i stumbled upon bluehostsucks.com

they apparently come down hard on any script that uses more than 10% of the 
cpu its on, by killing the account instead of just the script.

there are a number of other problems cited, all of which made me very 
nervous.

if you're interested in a vps account, i'm finding eboundhost (outside of

competitive pricing.

Companies I've heard very good things about and don't work for:

squarespace.com ($8 or $16/mo)
machighway.com ($3/mo start)

I like the guys at Machighway, and they are all Mac people and most of their 
customers are as well. Squarespace has very high redundancy and is well-known 
for being 'fireball proof'. Machighway has a mac compatible site builder on 
most of their packages (works in Safari).

I use  for almost every thing nowadays but if you don't
want a bare metal VM, I can also recommend 

They're cheap (I pay $90 a year), the uptime has been faultless, they're
pretty good at responding to tickets & I also get five domains included
in the price (prices may have changed).

They've got the usual MySQL, Perl, PHP & also Ruby but their version of
Rails is way out of date (2.3.5).

Depends on what you want to do. You currently have a gmail account. Have you 
considered the free version of Google Apps? Its not the easiest place to find 
as Google would much rather sell you a $50/mo account but for many the free 10
