[TriLUG] I'm looking for a good shared hosting web host

[John Ostrander via TriLUG]

I quite like DreamHost and have been using them for somewhere around a 
decade now. I think their VPS instances may fit the bill; though, I 
can't say for certain as I stopped using that offering of theirs some 
time back. Maybe DigitalOcean / Linode would work for you as well.
