Specific feedback on GoDaddy / Rackspace
ScottWhigham: I'm unclear: are you looking for suggestions (a) after you have funding and can afford whatever is best for you, (b) before you have funding and are boot-strapping, or (c) during business planning so you can more accurately do financial projections and/or sound impressive to potential investors? The answers that I've seen seem to imply one or the other but I'm not quite sure your initial post told us this critical bit.
