Even better if you can run an IPFS node on a VPS.

Yes.
ipfs pin add (hash)
I do this all the time, works for directories too.
ipfs pin add QmU3zLTYK9rLuqcHZDUoYLQeVaJv7MPHKF54FYyfKmt3z7
pinned QmU3zLTYK9rLuqcHZDUoYLQeVaJv7MPHKF54FYyfKmt3z7 recursively
https://ipfs.io/ipfs/ (paste your hash here)
I discovered by accident that if you put an index.htm file in the directory it works the same as a static web server.

this is great stuff, i do have a question though.... after i download the file from the ipfs iso (paste your hash here) thing... and put it in my directory, can I somehow place that hash file into another directory and re-pin it from that folder? just to keep the main directory clear, if not that's fine.

Sure, create a directory, (or several) in your main directory and organize it however you like.
IPFS has deduplication, which means you can have the same file in multiple locations, and it will only be stored once.
