Picking Drupal hosting can be a daunting task if you aren't sure what is available to you. In some cases, you might be fine with something like a shared hosting environment that Hostgator or similar services provide. In other cases, you may need a good VPS like Linode. As the site continues to grow you might even look into managed Drupal hosting with more power to handle you or your client's website.
VPS Drupal Hosting
I am now offering affordable Drupal VPS hosting plans. I am calling them semi-managed Drupal hosting plans. I will install and setup a web server with a Drupal distribution of your choice on a Linode VPS for a reasonable setup fee of $350. This one time fee also includes setup of Sendmail mail functionality and CSF Firewall with Intrusion Detection. Once your Drupal website is installed you are free to install whatever modules, themes, or 3rd party libraries you like. Your hosting account will actually be with Linode. My costs are related to installing your site on a specific package and enabling automated backups on your account. The most reasonably priced plans are listed below. If you need more resources, let me know.

Drupal Shared Hosting Packages
If you are looking for some cheap Drupal hosting, our Shared Drupal Hosting packages are just what you need to get your new Drupal website up and running even on a low budget. These plans are not meant for large scale production Drupal websites, they are for smaller sized Drupal websites like personal websites, hobby websites, or small businesses that are just getting started. All of our shared hosting plans also all come pre-installed with your favorite Drupal flavor!
