pg web hosting with tsearch2?

I hope pg-general is the correct forum for this question…if not please let me know the correct location.

I have a pg application that uses tsearch2.  I would like to move this application off my local machine and onto a web host somewhere.  I have some questions regarding this:

1)       What is the preferred postgresql text searching tool these days?  Is it still tsearch2?

2)       Can someone suggest a web host service that includes tsearch2 (or an equivalent text searching component)?

3)        All the web hosts I am aware of are still offering only pg 7.4.  Does anybody offer pg 8.x ?
