I'm not sure that "django hosting" nails anything down.  It could mean
whatever the provider wants it to mean, from "we won't kick you off
for using a non-Microsoft tool" to "we understand django and will help
you deploy, debug, and maintian it".

One significant variation from VPS that you should know about is
shared hosting, which is what I call what Webfaction does (we use them
to host several client sites, both django and plone).  You get an
account on a machine, rather than a virtual machine, your choice of
pre-configured starting configurations of several different
frameworks, or the tools you need to roll your own, and a management
interface to get your domains virtual hosted by the host wide front
end to to ports they assign for your back end(s).  You also get a
database in their server.  They have the permissings figured out so
the various accounts don't leak to one another, but you can still have
slow downs if one of  your machine mates starts taking more than his
allotment of time or memory (they do detect and kill such back ends
reasonably promptly).  The benefit is that you don't have to do os
management, but you are also more restricted than you would be in a
VPS.
