Now running a VPS for JoeJiko.com with CentOS 6.4.
My colleague said I should've gone with Debian.. but he was too late.
The process was mostly flawless, except a few problems with iptables.
I followed the guide to install Centos 6.4 with Apache
(I tried nginx first but it was so unfamiliar that I decided to go with Apache for now until I can test more)

I was stuck for awhile trying to get ISPconfig3's interface to show up. Every time I tried to access :8080, the connection timed out.
Of course, it had to do with the firewall. I disabled that using system-config-firewall and it worked!
