Content database migrations work really well as long as the source and destination are running the same Account Creation Mode. Unfortunately if they are not, the database will just show no sites in it once attached. Another consideration is if there are multiple site collections contained within the same content database you will need stsadm to pull out just one site for migration to another server. @Tom Resing

You are probably looking at publishing sites, since you do public hosting, but for non-publishing sites, content database migrations are a good option to avoid some export-import options. -Tom Thanks for making me aware of the account creation mode issues.
