Slicehost rocks
I just have to give a quick shout-out to the fine folks at slicehost. I’ve been doing shared hosting for years, but this is my first real experience with a VPS. It took a few weeks to get my slice ordered, but it was well worth the wait. I’ve currently got nginx fronting a mongrel cluster serving up 3 blogs (no, they are not all mine). It’s screaming fast and other than figuring out how to get all the data migrated was really easy to set up. If you’re looking for a hosting solution and you want more muscle than a cheap shared host can give you, I strongly recommend them. It’s not for the faint of heart, you have to set up the machine from scratch, but if you’re comfortable in a unix command line, there’s lots of good help to be found in the slicehost community.
