I am planning to launch my first major Django application on a live server for production. Could you please suggest hosting service that is reliable and considerably cheap?

I have used Heroku but not for a serious or client project. 

Please tell me your experience and advise. 

Thank you

There's good options out there.  As with everything, there's a tradeoff to consider.

1.  How much work do I want to put into DevOps?

2.  How much am I willing to pay to have someone else do it?

If you're willing to do the work yourself, then a self-hosted option would be best.  DigitalOcean and Linode are two services I have used in the past.  For enterprise level stuff, Amazon Web Services is the option I hear most (I don't have anything with needs at this level).

If you want to pass the hard work to someone else, then a Platform as a Service may be the way to go.  Heroku you've mentioned, PythonAnywhere has been suggested, Divio is a new one I have heard about.

Hope this helps!

please don't ever use "python-anywhere" for a serious project unless you have enough tears 😭 in your eye balls to cry out when the time comes.

... I suggest "digitalocean/linode" so that the heavy problems of "SSL certificates" won't beat you up

Oh, thank you for that. I'm really afraid for I don't want my client to tear my hair out.

How about heroku? Have you tried that ?

I've learned Django for a year, and I have my project hosted in PYTHONANYWHERE, however, I never had have a problem. It's very easy, you can If you are a beginner to use the free account, or else a paid one.
If you have any question, don't hesitate to ask me.
