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...

But isn't the xvda just a file containing partitions and the like?
I've actually been wanting to do this myself WITH LVM. I'd LOVE to
have lvm extend the file itself.
I did find the trick extending an image:
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024 count=3500000 >> fedora.fc5.img
resize2fs -f fedora.fc5.img
and thats works great...The way I understand the xvda file is that
you'd have to copy out anything that is after the main image resize
the image (like above) and then append the old stuff back to the end
of the disk. I'd assume "stuff" here to mean something like swap.
