Hello Diamond,

Dedicated hosting is the best hosting type for Woocommerce website – the entire server is dedicated to your WooCommerce website. You get to pick the server resources including
  • processing power
  • RAM
  • disk space
  • bandwidth
This is an ideal situation for any store because the store has access to all the server resources it needs.

Hi there DiamondIM,

E-commerce websites tend to use more server resources compared to a normal WordPress websites. Not only that, e-commerce websites also tend to attract more visitors. I would first suggest that you check your server resource usage. If your resource usage is constantly above 80%, it may slow down your server speed or halt your server entirely. There are two options from here.
1) Lower your resource usage
2) Upgrade your hosting plan

You did not mention which hosting plans you opted for, but that would give us more information into recommending you a solution.

If you plan to upgrade your hosting plan, I recommend going for a suitable VPS plan. A VPS is comparable to a dedicated server in many aspects. Here are some:
1) You get all the resources to yourself, meaning you're no longer sharing the resources with your neighbors
2) You can have root access, meaning you can reboot your VPS anytime or configure it to suit your needs

VPS is also a cheaper option compared to dedicated server.

If you have any questions, please ask away. We're happy to help. :)

You can choose any type of hosting besides shared to have good performance. It could be a cloud, a VPS or a dedicated server depends on your project requirements and your budget. To have good loading speed you better pick up the closest server location to your target audience. You can get a trial with your local provider and install your project just to compare how it loads with your current hosting. If benchmark results will be pretty same, that means you have to think of your website optimization than of getting new hosting.

For Woocommerce websites you need a high performance CPU or RAM because Wocommerce website has more traffic than normal WordPress websites.

I just read this thread, and this is for someone who might be facing a similar issue. I totally echo the points ade by all of you here.

But here is my take on this- @DiamondIM, in my experience, specialized hosting for WordPress or woo commerce and e-commerce websites have done the trick for people within my circle and also my clients. This is why, I suggest Bluehost India to them because WordPress hosting and e-commerce hosting services given by them are recommended by WordPress themselves. No one understands WordPress like them, especially when they know and understand the needs and requirements of people who go for WP and provide them plans accordingly. So, you might want to check this out for future references if need be.

Don't go with bluehost, buy a VPS and installing a caching for your woocommerce website, it will speed up your site stronger. WP rocket is a must for your ecommerce site :)

According to my recommendation, woocommerce requires SSL and security, which is why many businesses choose dedicated servers in order to maintain complete control over their websites. For unmanaged servers, you may outsource your technical help to etechsupport, which manages server administration, technical support, outsource hosting support, and fixes any server side issues via a pay per ticket package.

Hello,

For WooCommerce type of websites VPS or cloud hosting services are the solutions. You can easily get these kind of hosting solutions from any affordable web hosting provider. Just need to be careful while choosing the right one.

Wordpress hosting and cloud hosting both are right choice for WooCommerce website.

When choosing WooCommerce hosting, you need a solid platform for WordPress. You also need a secure platform to take online payments, so you should look for hosts that are PCI compliant and offer SSL certificates. Finally, we recommend VPS hosting to get the best performance out of WooCommerce.

WooCommerce comes with plenty of customization options and built-in functionality to make your online store stand out from the competition. Branding your business, marketing what you have to offer, and providing customers a seamless shopping experience is what WooCommerce is all about.

There are definitive reasons why WooCommerce is the most popular e-commerce solution right now. Let us take a look at the most compelling:

WordPress Compatibility
More than an Online Store
Sell It All
Open Source = Customizable
Support
Developer-Friendly

Agreed totally @coolhandle. WordPress hosting definitely a better solution to vps. I don't get the same scale for vps though some people here are talking about vps preferred. But not for woo commerce, no way. Hence I suggest Bluehost India's wp and woo commerce since their wp hosting is specialized for e-commerce users.

A VPS is in most cases better, as a VPS offers isolation from other users on the server and you’ll probably get full control (root access) over a VPS, so you can install and use whatever you want. With a VPS, you’ll have a faster website because you’ll have dedicated resources to your server instance.

I am running an ecommerce website and it works perfectly on a VPS hosting, even it can work on a shared hosting if hosting is fast and you install a caching plugin for your site like wp rocket, it boosts your site 200% or 300% faster.

Do you want the best hosting for WooCommerce to build your online store? Choosing the best hosting for an eCommerce website is one of the hardest decisions you’ll make.

WooCommerce is the most famous eCommerce platform designed for WordPress, making it very easy for almost everyone to start an online store. Your online eCommerce store will be successful only If it is hosted by the best and the fastest WooCommerce hosting provider.

WooCommerce hosting is a service aimed at providing high performance and speed for all WordPress-powered eCommerce stores and online stores. The main objective of these web hosting providers is to provide a simple way to set up an online business.

Types of Hosting for WooCommerce Sites

Shared Hosting


Shared hosting is the most affordable choice. Your website shares server resources with other sites. It is a reasonable alternative for relatively small establishments, but it is not the ideal option for a large store.

Cloud/VPS Hosting

Cloud/VPS hosting means dedicating resources to your site either on a single machine (VPS) or an entire network of servers (cloud). This is also known as cloud VPS hosting. People are switching away from traditional VPS models and toward the cloud in 2020, which makes it a perfect alternative for most WooCommerce websites.

Dedicated Hosting

Dedicated hosting is having an existing network to yourself, which means you have complete control over how the server is set up. Some major stores may require or choose dedicated hosting, however, most WooCommerce businesses will be OK with cloud hosting.
