It is good for some uses.

1) Most shared hosting providers have optimized their offerings to provide service to a fairly narrow user profile (which, though narrow, accounts for the vast majority of hosting customers). The typical shared hosting customer is:

2) running a blog or website using a popular PHPcontent management system like WordPress or Drupal

3) launching a website for their own personal use, or for the use of a small non-tech business, non-profit, church, or community group.

4) expecting to have less than a thousand visitors per day on most days

5) not planning need to rank high in search engines for extremely competitive search terms

6) not planning to do anything really weird

7) not running a mission-critical site

If you fit all those points, you will find shared hosting to be the easiest and most economical way to get online quickly. If you hit all but one of them, you can probably get by on shared hosting, at least to begin with. If two or more are not right, you are going to have a really bad time with shared hosting and should probably be looking at a VPS hosting plan.
