Well, I used to use hostingrails.com, I also experienced slowness
problems, and I had to switch to new servers a couple of time too, but
it was free, so I didn't really complain. I wouldn't recommend it for
a professional solution, but for hosting a blog, why not.

At that time I didn't know a Belgian-based alternative existed, I
would have perhaps used it :-)
