Yes, WooCommerce shops run reliably with us
WooCommerce turns WordPress into a fully featured online shop. As WooCommerce is built on WordPress, our web hosting meets all technical requirements: current PHP versions, MySQL databases, HTTPS and cron jobs for scheduled tasks such as order processing or newsletters.
Our plan recommendation for WooCommerce
An online shop thrives on fast loading times and high availability - they keep customers happy and increase sales. For online shops we therefore recommend Professional, and Premium for growing shops with many products or visitors. These plans offer generous headroom for storage, databases and accounts - room for plugins, images and growth.
- Professional: starter shops and shops with a manageable range of products
- Premium: shops with larger catalogues, many orders or campaigns with high traffic - Redis as an object cache on request
- Managed cloud server: very large shops with specific server requirements
Tips for fast WooCommerce shops
- Set up a real cron job for WP-Cron so that background tasks do not run on every page view.
- Use a caching plugin that correctly excludes the cart and checkout from caching.
- Keep your selection of extensions lean - that keeps your shop particularly fast.
- Rely on our daily backups and create an additional manual backup before major updates.
