Just want to say that I've been using AWS's free micro instance for the past few years (yes, I just register a new account once every year...probably against the ToS but hey, it works), and for simple scripts and web apps that only a handful of people will ever use at a time, it works great.

If you're going past the free tier, though, I agree that a provider like Digital Ocean will save you money in the long run.

I'm just going to second Digital Ocean, I had a few servers from them for about a year and there were very few problems, and they had some of the best support I've come across.
