Choosing A Webhost:

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...

Booting with selinux=0 disables SELinux at boot time. So if you have
tried doing that and it didn't help, then the problem is very unlikely
to be related to SELinux at all.

SELinux policy isn't loaded until /sbin/init runs. And SELinux allows
everything until policy is loaded (i.e. it is effectively permissive
until a policy is loaded no matter how you boot it). And booting with
selinux=0 unhooks SELinux entirely. So, as above, I don't think your
problem has anything to do with SELinux.
