Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

It would be nice to go through more possible configurations and try
them; so far we've only done a few.

Well, given that the path /src/ doesn't exist by default right now, we
can't ensure it's labeled correctly out of the box.  Maybe we could have
default configuration use /var/www/.

/srv/www should probably be just be labeled the same as /var/www by
default.  Since the default label is httpd_sys_content_t, which in the
default boolean set httpd_t is allowed to write to, PHP apps storing
e.g. a SQLite database there should work.
