I have found webappcabaret.com to offer the best choices for VPS and Shared hosting. For some the VPS may be overkill because it also includes regular website management features (Plesk or cPanel). The neat thing about the shared plans, is that you can choose a specific Ruby and RAILS version for each of your apps. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
