I've had pretty good luck with Codero's baseline VM solution (they call
it "cloud hosting"):

For $5/mo, You get full root access and even with one core and 512MB of
RAM, it's quite fast for simple sites,
top - 16:11:10 up 59 days, 19:11, 1 user, load average: 0.02, 0.04, 0.05
Tasks: 125 total, 2 running, 123 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie
%Cpu(s): 2.0 us, 1.0 sy, 0.0 ni, 96.0 id, 0.7 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.0 si,
0.3 st
KiB Mem : 495296 total, 6872 free, 104004 used, 384420 buff/cache
KiB Swap: 978940 total, 885004 free, 93936 used. 334620 avail Mem
They have many other plans as well so give the above URL a look.

I'm not at all pleased with the server company. A buddy of mine has had

I'm seeing IOWAIT between 50 and 100%, which is unacceptable. If this
continues we can end up with disk corruption and I'll have to restore from
backups. That's what my friend is experiencing with his: disk corruption
and long-running apps having to be kicked each day. Ridiculous.
If anyone knows of a cheap and reliable VM that can be bought/rented,
please let me know. This one hasn't cost me much, but the reliability is
just not there. I'm almost to the point where I want to stand up my own
hardware and create multiple VM's off it.
