To run bitcoind, u need VPS. U might like to check VPS hosting plans of besthostfree.com. I have not used their VPS, but kind of satisfied with the semi-dedicated hosting. Moreover, they accept bitcoin.

Regarding price, this links might be helpful for comparison of different VPS packages - http://besthostfree.com/vps-hosting.html

I am currently using one linux vps for other proposes so don't know how to run bitcoind in it or haven't tried running it. But i think it is enough for running as it has 100gb storage, 1tb bandwith and 100mbps speed. I have got that for  5$ per month comparatively cheaper vps.

I jumped straight to the advanced one since as I said I need to host bitcoind and to do that I will need to download the blockchain which means +65GB Storage is needed .

Try ovh ssd with the addition storage option. $3.5 for the vps + $14 for the storage. https://www.ovh.com/us/vps/vps-ssd.xml
