hosting service.

Heroku is good for starting out but EngineYard is probably the
preferred for large scale applications.

Hi,

I rent a VPS from Linode. It defenetely a good option if you are little
bit of administrator. You will need to setup everything: apache, ruby,
passenger, rails. For me it was fine. I found it fun. Linode provides
you very nice web interface, even web ssh :). I didn’t use other
services though so I cannot compare. This is good option for those who
want to feel they are in control.

I’ve had a very different experience with Linode. I had no Linux
experience and was able to get a box set up running Rails in not too
long using their guides. Sure, it wasn’t as fast as using Heroku but I
enjoy having total control over the environment.

Linode no good, their guides will guide you to wrong deployment. You’ll
lose
a LOT of time chasing your tail and banging your head against the wall
with
deployments that just don’t work.

Their support staff are very polite, but the bottom line is their Rails
deployment guides DO NOT work and they cannot help you get a workable
deployment.

Linode were fine for me but then I didn’t read any of their deployment
guides.
On a more managed front, I’ve had good experiences with blue box and

If you know Git already then definitely give a try for Heroku.
Go on with this:

it teaches you how to start with Heroku and Git.

If not and are a beginner then:
http://www.railshosting.org/

I started here, their support is excellent:
http://www.hostingrails.org/
and it’s free for a year, enough time to get involved.

good luck
