As far as getting it installed, many hosts have \"Wizard\" installers like cPanel's Fantastico or their own custom installer scripts.

It's new technology, and while it's great in theory, I've found the execution to be universally lacking. For example, Rackspace's Mosso CloudSites offering offers only FTP/SFTP as an interface -- Subversion and Rsync support would really help. Cloud hosting isn't what you want if you need your service to be super-responsive. All those virtualization layers add overhead. If you have customized needs or low latency requirements, you're going to be better off with a custom solution.

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-9715786" class="dsq-comment-message">It depends on what they want, do they need cloud computing (virtual servers) or a hosted service/solution? One problem I see is that, the hosted services price their services one way and the cloud servers are priced another way. For example if you look at Rackspace\'s site and look at cloud computing you get costs per virtual server per hour. If you look at eleven2 or Bluehost they have hosted solutions plans with costs per month. One sells you virtual servers priced per hour, the other sells you plans priced per month. Not sure if it is possible to recommend one over the other because of that. May the old adage keep them confused so you can milk them is the game plan. But I though web 2.0 and the transparent business model is what all these yahoos profess. Loic and John might just want a hosted solution for their products. If that is the case, the pricepoints are all pretty much even, with the hosted folks. With Rackspace and AWS I am not sure if you can always get what you want, because it is not clear and transparent. It would be nice to compare and know dont you think? I wish some one would write a nice price comparison one of these days between hosted and virtual servers in the cloud.</div>\

If you’ve already built your infrastructure on Windows, that might be important. For guys like Loic and John, though, it’s less important because they are already on LAMP stacks. <strong>But still, they might need WordPress loaded. That’ll be tough to get at some hosting companies.</strong></blockquote><br><br>WordPress thrives on a LAMP stack (indeed the "M" and "P" parts of its are required), but it\'ll run on Windows, as well as non-Apache http servers such as IIS, LiteSpeed, Lighttpd, and others. As far as getting it installed, many hosts have "Wizard" installers like cPanel\'s Fantastico or their own custom installer scripts. And even without an installer script, it\'s about a 5 minute process to do a manual FTP upload of the files and enter your MySQL user/pass/database info.<br><br>As to the matter at hand, Rackspace is amazing if you can afford them. If you\'re willing to sacrifice some uptime and systems redundancy and save a bunch of money, Server Beach is worth considering. Layered Technologies is somewhere in the middle in terms of the price/fanatical-service tradeoff. I wouldn\'t hesitate to do business with any of these companies.<br><br>Cloud hosting is a riskier proposition. It\'s new technology, and while it\'s great in theory, I\'ve found the execution to be universally lacking. For example, Rackspace\'s Mosso CloudSites offering offers only FTP/SFTP as an interface -- Subversion and Rsync support would really help. Cloud hosting isn\'t what you want if you need your service to be super-responsive. All those virtualization layers add overhead. If you have customized needs or low latency requirements, you\'re going to be better off with a custom solution. Where cloud hosting wins is that you can cut your IT costs and just deal with application developers.</div>\

What I suggest is that you determine what are the critical factors for your site (such as bandwidth, control of servers, uptime, support, remote hands, high-volume storage, etc.) and rank those.  Each hoster will be good and bad at some of these.  By ranking, you can help narrow the list for making a good cost/benefit analysis.<br><br>Also, make sure to consider some of the "other" factors.  Do they have a good DAR (disaster avoidance and recovery plan - you\'d be surprised that many don\'t, that they often don\'t include avoidance and/or that it is seriously out of date), how do they access the Internet (while some will tell you they have gobs of bandwidth, depending on how it is connected your network performance still may not be good, and how do they address security (this includes network, server and most importantly physical (don\'t forget the easiest way to access a server is from the server itself)).<br><br>There are lots of good referrals and recommendations listed.  Hopefully this helps in the decision.  Good luck.</div>\
