Hi Francis, I don't have experience with Plesk, but I do have experience with the same problems, especially true for low budget clients. For me, my best solution was just to rent a dedicated vps from Slicehost ( or some other equiv ) and start telling my clients that I am including hosting in the package. Most clients who need commodity hosting are low traffic sites in my experience, so you should be able to put a number of them on a slice and have just as good performance for the dollar. The big extra advantage of this is that *you* don't have to try and develop and deploy through commodity hosting tools, which suck for developers. You can use a shell and so on. My latest experiment involves figuring out how I can run the dynamic sites on my rented server and generate cached static html files that will be uploaded automatically to the cheap host. I dunno how well this will work out, but it might be a nice solution for people who need only a very simple site and don't actually need "real" dynamic, they just want to be able to update some content less than once a day.
