In late april i switched from a 3$/month shared hosting to an OVH vps, these are the results :p
Don't waste your money and switch to a VPS, you won't regret it.

but that's $3/month to ???
Even so, having litespeed and 1gb/1core/ssd as resources i won't say it's too bad for 3$/month.
The difference is too huge to even compare it, i'm paying 6$/month for the vps so... yeah not bad for this price.
 
So you're using the VPS as a dedicated server for your website?
 
I also do recommend going for a VPS, especially if it's not a resource-intensive website. And I would say that a cheap $5-6 VPS on either of the big companies will suffice for most cases.
 
Of course it is faster, you paid twice for it.

And what's the point of this thread?

Yes.

I don't think the price is important here, because at the end of the day you can find lots of shared hosting companies that have higher prices than a decent VPS, as an example the cheapest package of WPX Hosting, is 25$/month it offers 10 gb storage, with 100 gb bandwidth and allow up to 5 websites to be hosted, with those resources having a website with ~20.000 visitors/month you will use all resources, for a similar amount on ovh you can get a vps with 8 gb ram/4cores/160 gb ssd and 1gb port with no mattered bandwidth and also you are protected by ovh firewall in case of ddos attacks. With this config you can easily host 5 website with ~20k users/month.
The point of this thread is just a basic example of how an website performs better on a vps rather than a shared hosting, these pictures above as you can see are from march - april when i had shared hosting, when core web vitals were oscillating and late april - may when everything stayed green.
