Web Hosting Dedicated Hosting

Will moving to a dedicated virtual host from a shared hosting improve my site performance?

my site performance is a bit sluggish currently on a shared hosting (Media temple). I'm wondering if dedicated-virtual will be faster.

1. Isn't dedicated virtual the same as shared? In each case you share a server with other people.
2. Yes but only if your web hosting service provider does not cheat you.
3. Media Temple is nice...but it's not amazing. Personally, I think their (dv) hosting is TOO expensive ($40-$50 is just too much). And you don't get that much. I left them a while ago. You want quality hosting...for less than $30 a month?....better than dv? What you need is semi-dedicated hosting. JaguarPC currently offers the best hosting you can buy....it's like dedicated hosting but it's all managed like shared hosting! They put you on a server with a lot less people, meaning you can hog the CPU resources, your site will load faster, you get unlimited disk space, and massive amounts of bandwidth! Here's a direct link for you ------ I strongly suggest it! http://smallurl.co.uk/?3785
4. well yes for sure if u move to a vps it will imporve ur site performance in case that u got a good vps for sure cuz on shared hosting ur sharing the server resources with 100 ppl but on vps ur sharing with 10 so thats different and on vps u got a big limit on cpu load not like on shared hosting ur not able to load more then 15% for more then 1 mins i think if u got a good traffic site u should move it to a vps and here that will help u with offers and prices http://www.hostsgate.com choise top 10 vps and check the top 10 companies and read there info and what the offer u
5. Your problem comes from your web hosting provider. Many shared hosting runs on fast servers. Most of them offer a 30-day money back and you can try them during this period to understand if you are happy with the speed of their servers. As an experienced webmaster I recommend BlueHost service which I’m sure it would work for you and fulfill all your requirements. They have a really great offer for hosting & I have used them for over 3 yrs now, and have never had a single problem with them. Their service is really fast and uptime.
