Thanks for the info, Ryan.

So it seems NGINX is a web/proxy/mail server (modularly supporting each) 
that can act as the front side face of my applications, to which it can URL 
rewrite, if need be, before routing off the requests to an individual Node 
App.  That sounds perfectly like what I'm looking for. I misinterpreted how 
NGINX worked, and confirmed with my host "You're free to install NGINX on 
your instance, just understand that in addition to all Node memory usage, 
NGINX will take up its share as well.) (I'm running a personal site on a 
1GB VPS, but I'm sure I can scale if I ever need to)

And for clarification, what you're saying about the Node/App side of 
things, can you throw me a hint or 2 about some tech used for more 
automated assurances to run my apps? Are we talking about things like 
Forever, or services that work to constantly ensure that if the Node 
process dies, it is spun back up without my need to manually do it?

My apologies, the world of VPS is actually new to me, but I've been finding 
it VERY amazing and interesting in architecting reliability into the design 
of the application's infrastructure. I really appreciate you taking the 
time.
