Canadian Web Hosting provides shared, VPS, and dedicated web hosting for Canadian sites. They operate from a 1st Class Colocation facility located at Harbour Center in downtown Vancouver, BC, Canada. The advantage to international (i.e. non-Canadian) hosting services are obvious: they are much faster to access from Canada (with an added bonus that you pay in your native Canadian Dollars currency! Hence, if your customers and/or your business is based on Canada, hosting your Rails site with them might be a perfect fit.

The shared hosting plans offered by Canadian Web Hosting starts from the tight-budget CAD$3.95/mo (2 year prepayment). Ruby on Rails support is provided with the CA Pro plan which is only CAD$15.95/month (2 year prepayment), with 3500 GB bandwidth, and 300 GB space. All the “standard” web hosting stuff, like PHP 4/5, MySQL, are available, including support for advanced features such as PostgreSQL, SSH, ColdFusion MX 8 (seriously), ImageMagick, and more.

There’s no initial setup fee (hosting account setup is free!) and they provide 30-day money-back guarantee. So you can try their services and features without risking anything, really.

VPS plans are also available starting from an affordable CAD$25.95/month (2 year prepaid), that some of you demanding more control would prefer. They also provide Intel Dual Core and Quad-Core Xeon-powered dedicated servers (with Red Hat/CentOS operating system), which would be more cost-effective for those who have larger number of clients or require better stability and guaranteed resources.
