    Shared hosting is a single account granted to you on a dedicated server which has many other accounts on it, thus shared hosting.

    A Dedicated hosting means you get that one single server all to yourself and is not shared to anyone else. Means you will be in full control, you will make any number of accounts on to it. You may even resell space if you wish.

    shared hosting - many accounts / users sharing between them the resources of a dedicated server

    dedicated hosting - you use all resources, you don't share the server resources with others

    dedicated shared connection - few dedicated servers sharing the same connection for example ....


    .... this is how i understand

    From wikipedia:

    A shared web hosting service or virtual hosting service or derive host refers to a web hosting service where many websites reside on one web server connected to the Internet. Each site "sits" on its own partition, or section/place on the server to keep it separate from other sites.[1] This is generally the most economical option for hosting as many people share the overall cost of server maintenance.

    A dedicated hosting service, dedicated server, or managed hosting service is a type of Internet hosting where the client leases an entire server not shared with anyone. This is more flexible than shared hosting, as organizations have full control over the server(s), including choice of operating system, hardware, etc.

    It may mean it is a VPS (virtual private server) or "semi-dedicated"
