AWS also offers free-tier for the whole first year. It's used by the majority of the popular websites out there includes freelancer.com. I'd prefer AWS over Heroku on any day but can go with whichever you prefer.
I'm probably the most experienced Djangonaut you can ever find!
I've been breathing Python for 14 years and Django is my passionate to develop with for 8+ years(exactly since their first stable version 0.90). I've involved in very large-scale projects with Python for previous clients. I'm very perfectionist,detail oriented and I don't use Django as only I'm asked for. I love it and building robust, modular things with it.
Few things about me;
An AWS junkie! Use almost all they have from ec2 to ElasticCache, s3 & more.
Mostly use PostgreSQL but have many experiences with MySQL and MongoDB.
Works on Linux environment for years. Currently Ubuntu, previously RHEL& Debian .
GAE & Heroku experience

Have extensive experience with social media APIs (FB, Twitter, Yahoo, Google, OpenID, LinkedIn)
A perfectionist.
