I host with bluehost.com, which allows me to create several domains (like many other hosting services do) on the same account. The domains are all under the ~/public_html/(domain name) folder.
I'm moving hosting sites from a basic hosting account to a cloud VM. I have a website that was developed using drupal 7.10. I've setup LAMP and phpmyadmin.
