It is very important for SEO as you are separated from a lot of sites that may violate search engine terms & rules. You are making on your own without bad opinion on start.

Just because a load might say 8 it doesn't mean the server is having issues. If the server is a Dual QuadCore Xeon the average load can be 10 and the server will stioll be fast. But if you have many downtime events then it would be time to move on or ask to switch servers. You also need to take into account the server hardware.

and i agree full to what leonardo says… its better to take a vps or to buy an dedicated ip add on if possible.

1. keeps you away from blacklists
2. better ranking at search engines
3. you can run scripts that arent mostly allowed on shared hosts

But there´s another point we have to consider. IP address is shared among other sites. And it´not good. If any of the other sites sends out spam, the IP address, which is associated with the spam, will be listed as sending spam and will be listed on a Blacklist. What happens next depends on the people running the Blacklists. But it may harm your website. So, if you´re really serious about your business, i recommend you to order a VPS plan, because beyond of the fact there will be fewer sharing the resources, you´ll not have the problem of getting your IP blacklisted, because the other people´s activities. You will get a dedicated IP address. Shared hosting plans is good for smaller websites or even bigger sites. But there´s another point we have to consider.
