There are some advantages of a shared hosting over a un-managed vps. Main thing is usually you get cPanel which is lot easier to work with also you don't have to install and configure the server. Second thing is you get full support unlike with free vps where you don't get providers support for installing and configuring that. So if someone have a 1 small website using shared hosting is the best way till it really need s a vps.

for n00b or people that just lazy and people that want the thing that "just works" shared hosting is much better choice but for me i still prefer vps than normal web hosting because i get more dedicated resource (vps resource is less shared than shared hosting resource) and also vps is actually more secure . if the shared hosting is mass defaced all the website in that server is gone but if you have vps if other people vps get hacked yours will not get hacked . but not all shared hosting are mass defaceable this day . vps also give more flexibility and vps is actually technically cheaper if you buy it from lesser known company like for example VirMach the provider of VPS9 sell 128mb linux vps for just $7.5 /year USD or host4fun sell 256mb linux vps for $15 USD / year . dont buy vps from famous vps provider because the price is higher than shared probably . not only that but the vps come with more storage than most shared hosting at the same price . even if you include the operating system there are still more storage than the shared hosting . and maybe you ask some web hosting have unlimited storage and i want to tell you ALL THAT IS LIE . NOTHING IN THIS WORLD THAT IS UNLIMITED! . for example famous hosting provider hostgator will warn the user if they use storage more than 1GB even though it says unlimited and the best factor of getting the vps is you can use it other than web hosting for eample game server , and more but with shared hosting you stuck with just web hosting

so conclusion time . im not saying that shared hosting is bad or anything . shared hosting is actually great . it have the easy to use familiar cPanel and also auto installer and you dont need to set up anything . it is just works . but if you are more advanced and want more performance in your website then vps is much better choice . and about the storage well some vps provider doesnt allow file hosting and most shared web host doenst allow it so you really dont need that much storage and you can go with shared hosting that claim unlimited

that is my opinion . what yours? comment below
