For cheap, large scale commodity web hosting sites only if they
provide FASTCGI support to you. Even then, only if the web hosting
company is friendly to Python and fat persistent processes. Most cheap
web hosts only give lip service to Python in the way of providing CGI
support, which is useless for large Python web frameworks.

That is not entirely true. You can use .htaccess file to setup WSGI
applications under Apache/mod_wsgi, but it does first require the web
site administrator to allow you to do that first. You are highly
unlikely to get this in a cheap, large scale commodity web hosting
however. Thus, you really need to specify what type of shared hosting
environment you are looking at.

Detail what type of shared hosting you are talking about first and
then can answer.
