You have to ask yourself. How much will your site grow and how fast. If you expect to get high growth and want to be able to handle spikes of traffic then Id go with a dedicated server. If your site already has that kind of traffic its obviously to much for a shared account, and on the verge of being to much for a VPS. I recommend starting right with a dedicated, to save yourself the hassle of moving everything over when you upgrade. Start with a basic Dedicated perhaps a simple dualcore xeon maybe 1-2 gb of ram. This will take your site well into the future, and when it comes time to upgrade you can start with adding ram, to handle the MySQL loads, and when your cpu load gets to big, Your site is doing really well!! and time to go quadcore/dual processor.

Let me know if their is anything I can help you with.
