There are a couple of things that play an important role in this:

1. Traffic - How much bandwidth are you pulling? What plan are you currently on? What kind of growth do you think you will get over the next 2 - 3 months? (do you expect?)

2. Resources - How much resources your site needs, CPU / Memory, what plan are you on currently?

Answering the above questions will answer if you need to upgrade to a Dedicated Server or not

Usually, you'll go Shared -> VPS1 -> VPS2 (more RAM) -> Dedicated. HostICan can assist you the entire way. Even if you need load balancing after you outgrow the dedicated box.

Some folks like to go from:

Base-Host to Dedicated Server too :P

That's what we did. We went from a Base-Host right into a Dedicated server. We are ready for growth well into the future.
