Hostgator, one of the best-known names in virtual private server hosting, has different hosting packages that can be arranged to fit virtually any need. They use a Linux based operating system and industry-standard cPanel/WHM and Virtuozzo to allow users to easily control the virtual server, and users are even granted full root access for completely customizable hosting. At its highest level, their Virtual Private  Server hosting plan grants users up to 32 dedicated IP addresses, over 3000 GB of bandwidth, 231 GB of web storage space, over 4400 MB of RAM, and a 5.94 GHz processor for $209.95 per month. For users who don't need quite so much in the way of resources, their lower-tier VPS hosting plan offers 2 IP addresses, 250 GB of bandwidth, 10 GB of web storage space, 384 MB of RAM, and a 0.56GHz processor for $19.95 per month. These plans also allow unlimited domain hosting, subdomains, e-mail accounts, FTP accounts, and MySQL databases. Users are also granted use of Hostgator's free site builder software, and, for security, off-site backups are performed weekly.  

Even if you're not very experienced with managing a server, never fear- their Virtual Private Server hosting plans above Level 2 are fully managed for ease of setup and maintenance, and are completely customizable for every user's needs and budget. Best of all, Hostgator's around-the-clock customer support is known for responding extremely quickly to any questions and concerns from their users. No matter what your needs are, Hostgator can set up the right Virtual Private Server hosting plan for you.

I have HostGator VPS account.  My current VPS configuration is:

Level 5 with 2.68 GHZ CPU, 1824 MB RAM, 80 GB disc space, 1425 GB bandwidth, Web Host Manager with cPanel (ability to create unlimited cPanel and reseller accounts), fully managed (meaning HostGator takes care of security, updates, installations, configs etc)... So far have not had any problems. They have also installed for me some modules for free including QuickInstall, ZIP module for PHP, altered firewall because I needed to open port on my server for my web application to work.
