Well vps hosting is not for everyone. Years back biggest issue was the price but not anymore. You can buy one for cheaper than a shared hosting account. But there are other things which makes Shared hosting is better for some users.
Like for someone like a business owner who just want his site hosted in a secure place with good support. Or affiliate marketer who prefer to focus on this work rather than spending time with hosting related technical stuff etc.
When it comes to Shared Hosting, Server security and maintenance taken cared by the provider. So you don't have to keep an eye on these stuff. You can use that time to develop your business. Even if you out grow your shared hosting account then you can move to a managed vps if your business is profitable enough. Plus you get to use cPanel in almost all shared hosting packages which is more advance and lot easier to use than all free control panels out there.
I have several vps which I run by my self but my most important sites and clients sites are hosted in a Knownhost managed vps. They do have specilized people there who know about servers better than by self. So I don't have to worry about anything apart from taking backups.
