Why Sell From Here
The full kit for converting more visitors
Pace that protects the sale
Basket and payment pages quicken when commerce caching meets NVMe drives — and every second saved is a buyer who finishes the order.
A PCI-ready payment path
The payment route arrives already secured — isolation per account, free SSL, current TLS — and drops straight in beside any PCI-compliant gateway.
99.9% uptime, or a credit
Hardware duplicated in our London facility keeps the store trading, and that 99.9% is guaranteed — any month short of it earns a pro-rated credit.
It grows with the order book
When demand picks up, extra CPU, RAM and storage are two clicks away — the catalogue and settings ride along untouched, with no server move required.
Watched every hour
Copies on their own schedule, malware scans that never pause and a web application firewall between the store and the open internet — buyers and orders covered.
Engineers answer, not scripts
Every minute offline is revenue gone, so tickets and email reach genuine engineers at any hour — nobody passes you between departments.
No Waiting
A checkout as quick as your customers
Slow pages leak orders quietly, and no report will ever raise it. Here the store sits on all-NVMe hardware with commerce-aware caching, so catalogue, basket and payment pages stay quick while sessions, coupons and live stock counts keep doing exactly what shoppers expect.
- NVMe storage across the board
- Storefront-literate caching
- Abandonment rates pushed down
- Payment and basket pages that move
Locked-Down Payments
A hardened base for taking payments
Card details do not get typed into a page anybody doubts. Free SSL encrypts the full journey from click to confirmation, while account isolation, a web application firewall and malware scanning keep the store sealed — a dependable base for meeting PCI requirements with whichever gateway you run.
- Every store gets free SSL
- Isolated, hardened accounts
- Malware scans behind a firewall
- Current TLS the whole way

FAQ
Store hosting questions, answered
How does store hosting differ from ordinary hosting?
Store hosting takes standard web hosting and rebuilds it around what selling online actually demands. A store is nothing like a brochure site: pages are generated on the fly, baskets and sessions cannot be blindly cached, stock shifts by the minute, and the encrypted checkout has to stay reachable under pressure. Our plans answer with all-NVMe storage for quick catalogue and basket pages, caching clever enough to leave baskets and live stock alone, free SSL securing the checkout, a 99.9% uptime target, and resources that grow in step with order volume. Every account is isolated and hardened behind a web application firewall, with malware scanning and automatic copies protecting your customers and their orders. WooCommerce — the most widely deployed store software on the web — sits underneath, giving you a proven base with no per-sale fee nibbling at every order you take.
Do these plans force me onto WooCommerce?
No — the plans are simply arranged around it, for good reasons. WooCommerce comes ready on WordPress because it is open source, extends in any direction, and skips the per-sale cut hosted store platforms usually take, leaving each order's full margin with you. From there you pick the theme, install the extensions the store needs and connect whichever payment gateway you prefer. Want a different PHP store platform instead? Below it all is ordinary cPanel with Softaculous and its 240-plus installers, and SSH, Git and Composer for whatever you would rather deploy yourself. Up to 100 MySQL or MariaDB databases come with it, and phpMyAdmin to run them. Most owners end up staying with WooCommerce for its flexibility and the enormous community behind it — but nothing on the server chains you to one platform.
Why is the checkout quicker here than average?
Two things decide checkout speed: raw disk performance and intelligent caching. Every store here runs on all-NVMe storage — a class quicker than the SATA SSDs or spinning disks many budget hosts still use — so product, basket and order lookups come back promptly. The caching layer understands a shop too: static and catalogue pages serve from cache while baskets, sessions, coupons and stock counts stay live and correct, so nobody ever meets a stranger's basket or an outdated price. LiteSpeed, HTTP/2 and current PHP 8.x builds keep request handling lean, and free SSL adds encryption at negligible cost in speed. Since your account holds resources of its own, the performance survives rising traffic — a quiet Tuesday and your heaviest sale day ought to feel alike.
Where do security and PCI compliance stand here?
In good shape. Free self-reissuing SSL wraps the whole checkout in current TLS, guarding card numbers and personal data in transit on every page, not merely the payment form. Accounts are hardened and isolated, a web application firewall strips out malicious traffic, malware scanning runs continuously and network-level DDoS protection keeps the store trading through an attack. PCI is divided between you and your gateway, and helpfully most of them — Stripe and PayPal among them — process card numbers on their own systems, so raw card data never lands on yours. That places you in the lightest PCI band, usually a brief self-assessment questionnaire, while we supply the encrypted, isolated, monitored infrastructure below it. Keep the platform and plugins patched, use a strong admin password and choose a reputable gateway, and customers can pay with complete confidence.
What does the platform do when traffic takes off?
Taking off is the point, and the platform is built to meet it. Day to day, store-aware caching on all-NVMe storage lets one plan carry far more than its headline specification suggests, because most catalogue requests come out of cache rather than being rebuilt. Should a launch, a flash sale or a holiday rush push past it, a tier upgrade is two clicks and brings CPU, RAM and storage with it — no re-platforming, no migration, nothing rebuilt. Catalogue, customers, orders and settings stay exactly in place; only the resources beneath them grow, and the change lands quickly. The redundant hardware in our London datacentre is designed to ride out spikes, keeping the checkout open on precisely the days revenue depends on it. See a surge coming? Move up ahead of time and drop back once it passes.
Can my current store be moved here without my doing it?
Yes — our team does it, and it is free. Once signed up, raise a ticket with your existing host's login details and we take care of everything: WordPress and WooCommerce, the database, product images and media, plus all the orders and customer records you have accumulated. Most moves finish within roughly 24 hours, and nearly all the work happens on the new server before your live store is touched, so checkout downtime is minimal or none. Wherever we can, the store is put together on a staging URL first so you can click round it and place a test order, proving the transfer before DNS moves. When you are satisfied, the name points here and free SSL switches on automatically. Running a custom theme or an unusual extension? Note it in the ticket and we will plan the move around it.

Browse Store PlansEvery extra second on a product page is a customer drifting towards a competitor. A shop needs immediate storage, an unbroken padlock and backups that run whether or not anybody remembers. Every account runs on NVMe storage with LiteSpeed in front, in our London datacentre, watched by the same engineers who answer your tickets.
Built for sellers taking payments online. A free certificate, a free transfer from your current host, nightly backups and support at any hour are all inside the price, with nothing added at checkout.
Hosting that keeps orders flowing
NVMe storage keeps database queries brisk, LiteSpeed caches the catalogue pages, and OPcache serves compiled PHP without a pause. A free certificate secures the checkout, nightly backups protect the orders, and the one-click installers stand up WooCommerce, Magento, OpenCart or PrestaShop in under a minute.
Speed is engineered in rather than bolted on with a plugin: NVMe arrays keep reads immediate, LiteSpeed answers over HTTP/2, and the server caches before your application does anything at all.
The cost of hosting a store
The oldest move in hosting is a cheap first year and a quiet rise at renewal. Hosting & Domains works the other way about: the number you join at is the number that renews, and anything promotional is flagged on the page before you pay. Every hosting plan carries a 30-day money-back guarantee, so trying it risks nothing more than an afternoon.
Open on a plan from $2.42 a month and move to a VPS at $13.52 when the catalogue and the traffic justify it. Neither move calls for a rebuild, and neither price wanders at renewal.
The engine behind an online store
Shops run in our London datacentre behind edge DDoS filtering, on NVMe arrays with nightly backups of files and database. By the time a payment gateway asks about encryption, the certificate exists and is already renewing itself.
Support runs every hour of the day, staffed by the people who administer these servers, with a first reply aimed at 2 hours and 1 hour when a site is down. No tier hands you to a bot.
- Major store platforms install in one click
- Order data backed up daily, SSL free
- Daily backups you restore yourself, in one click
- SSL issued free and auto-renewed

Still Curious
Questions that keep coming up
Which shop platform makes sense for me here?
WooCommerce when the site already runs WordPress, OpenCart when you want light and quick, Magento when the catalogue is large and the budget agrees. Each installs in one click, and our desk will give you a straight answer on which suits the plan you are considering.
How long until everything is running?
The account provisions itself at checkout, so minutes rather than days. If an existing store needs bringing over, our migration team usually finishes inside 24 hours and times the cutover so nothing goes offline.
Does the renewal price differ from the joining price?
It renews at the price you joined on. Where a first-term promotion applied, its renewal figure was printed beside it before you ordered, so nothing appears later.
What if ecommerce hosting turns out not to suit me?
The plan carries a 30-day money-back guarantee. Say so inside the month and the refund is processed, with no exit interview and no hand-off to a retention team paid to argue.
