I assume you are looking for inexpensive hosting on a shared machine,
but since you are doing a database backed website, want as much power
and flexibility as you can get for a modest amount of money.  In that
case, generally the best choice is one that let's you install and use
any software you want, and ideally gives you root access via something
like FreeBSD's jail facility, or the equivalent Linux kernel patch.

Acorn Hosting offers exactly that (and has gotten good reviews), some
of the others listed here do too:

Those folks are mostly interested in OpenACS, AOLserver, Tcl, and
PostgreSQL, of course, not Apache, PHP, or SQLite.  So all else being
equal, you might be a bit better off with an otherwise similar hosting
provider who is more focussed on the toolset that you want to use.
That really doesn't matter much though, because with a virtual server
arrangement, you should be able to do anything you want.
