When should you use a Virtual Private Server?
Starting with a VPS plan from the beginning is a good idea. eCommerce websites, for example, that require secure payments in a fast and stable environment can greatly benefit from a virtual private server. In fact, if you store sensitive data or have to process online payments, a virtual private server (VPS) can help you reduce the risk of security breaches and identity theft.
A VPS hosting plan can also be beneficial if you anticipate traffic spikes on your site at specific times, such as in the case of an event planning or ticket-selling website. Game servers, such as CS:GO or Minecraft, and other resource-intensive websites perform much better on a virtual private server.
These folks are the best

I've hosted with many providers over the past 20 years. A2 is by far the best in terms of performance and support.
Their "support" is a joke

Not a bad hosting platform but god forbid you need support. The support is terrible. You will get people who don't understand the problem. You will get people with limited knowledge. You will get people who don't understand that PST is not EST and will call you at the crack of dawn and then follow up with some lame email saying "I think you meant PST" when my ticket clearly said PST.After two weeks with an open ticket, I finally fixed the issue on my own with zero "support" from A2. SiteGround, way better....
