I would stay away from "playing" with Linux on production servers.

You should keep your game servers on their own hardware, separate from your web hosting, for example.

Good to hear. Ive found it can be one of the hardest parts of setting up, choosing a different, yet relevent name!

Just wondering why you are starting with dedicated's? It does have benefits, sharing load, backups etc.. But you want to keep your inital costs low and spend on advertising.

SSH will bring you numerous secuirty problems. Just search the forum, theres plenty of threads on the matter. I would never consider giving any one SSH on a shared server.

What is the name ? mybestcheaphosting.com ? :)
