Since most virtual hosts are very oversold an quite unreliable,the best way to go is to get two of of them from different providers on different sides of the country, East and West coasts. Get static IPs and then use something like DNSMadeEasy or ZoneEdit to fail over between the two. I have a mainstream site running in such mode and according to two independent third party services, I have 99.999% reliability. Not bad for less than $20 per month.
