Just thought I'd chime in to add my 2 cents, on the off chance that it helps someone here make an informed decision.
NFS is also great for small MySQL backed sites - for example your Wordpress blog or something similar.
Their pricing model is so transparent and predictable, and the support from Jeff and co is great (their documentation and FAQ is simply brilliant).
Also their domain registration and setup is a breeze - and they have great Whois privacy support.
These guys were doing pay-as-you-use pricing long before AWS came along. We still use (and love) AWS for our extensive production systems, but for simple hosting of smaller projects and / or personal websites, NFS is unbeatable.
Its combination of affordability and ease of use is simply the best.
They’re also quite on the ball with system monitoring. I remember once about 15 years ago when I decided to see if I was able to ssh tunnel a socks proxy through their shell machine (I was curious what would happen) and they had my account suspended within minutes. :D Great job, guys (sincerely). Took me promising never to do it again to get reinstated.
