Depending on your sites and setup it may be possible to have a "warm spare" server or VPS image sitting at another host, ready for activation at short notice.

Setting up hot spares is certainly an option but most won't do it once they see the expenses involved. If your sites are BW intensive then your costs may no be as expensive as your main site but if BW is minimal then the costs may actually exceed the cost of the primary hosting.
