[Haskell-cafe] Server hosting

OK, so strictly this is unrelated to Haskell as such. However, there's 
enough people doing webby stuff with Haskell that some of you must have 
wanted to run your code on a real, Internet-accessible web server. So 
does anybody have any suggestions on which companies offer the most 
favourable tools / pricing?

I currently have a website, but it supports only CGI *scripts* (i.e., 
Perl or PHP). It does not support arbitrary CGI *binaries*, which is 
what I'd want for Haskell. In fact, I don't have control over the web 
server at all; I just put content on there.

The same provider can offer me a virtual server, but at 3x the price I'm 
currently paying. I simply cannot afford that kind of money just for 
silly toy projects.

What does everybody else use?
