Virtual machine host provider recommendations

[Ted Roche]

Also a happy Linode customer. For all practical purposes, they provide
a blank box, you specify the Linux distro/flavor of choice. after that
you own the box. For 5 years plus, experienced a couple of minor
downtimes (minutes) for various migrations & upgrades, and a few hours
off during Superstorm Sandy, not that anyone minded all that much. Run
a half-dozen commercial LAMP apps, cron jobs, ssh, mail, DNS, no
problem. Not the cheapest, but good support and most importantly,
little reason to need the support: uptime!
