Recommended For Stores
Fast pages sell. Slow pages don't.
For a store, hosting performance isn't a vanity metric - it's revenue. Three infrastructure choices do most of the work.
Host near your shoppers
A UK shopper reaching a London server gets a round trip of typically 5-20ms, versus 80-150ms to a US server. That saving applies to every request on every page of the funnel.
NVMe + caching
Product queries, cart sessions, and checkout writes hit NVMe storage with server-side caching in front - so pages stay quick even with large catalogues.
Stay online under load
DDoS mitigation is always on, and auto-scaling on Pro and Business absorbs promotion-day traffic spikes without you touching anything.
Everything an online store needs
Security, speed, and safety nets included on every plan - not sold back to you as add-ons.
Free SSL with TLS 1.3
Every store gets an automatically provisioned and renewed SSL certificate with TLS 1.3 - modern encryption for checkout pages and customer accounts, with no manual renewals.
NVMe Speed for Checkout
NVMe SSD storage and server-side caching keep product pages and checkout steps fast. Slow pages lose sales; fast ones convert.
WooCommerce-Ready
PHP 8 with OPcache, generous memory limits, and one-click WordPress installs make WooCommerce stores straightforward. See our CMS hosting for fully managed WordPress.
Staging Environments
Test theme changes, plugin updates, and new payment flows on a staging copy before pushing live - essential before Black Friday, not after.
Daily Backups
Orders, customers, and catalogue backed up automatically every day with one-click restore, so a bad update never costs you your order history.
DDoS Protection
Volumetric and application-layer DDoS mitigation is included on every plan, keeping your store reachable when it matters most.
London Datacentre
Your store is served from London. Lower latency for UK shoppers means faster page loads across every step of the funnel.
Fast Database Layer
MySQL and MariaDB on NVMe storage in the same datacentre as your store - quick cart, search, and checkout queries.
Renewal = Intro Price
Pro is £9/month at signup and £9/month at renewal. No first-year teaser rate that jumps when your store depends on us.
Change safely before peak season
The worst time to discover a broken plugin update is the morning of your biggest sale. Staging makes store changes boring - in the best way.
01
Clone to staging
One click creates a full copy of your store - files, database, and configuration - on a private preview URL.
02
Test the change
Update the theme, plugins, or payment flow and place test orders on staging while your live store keeps trading untouched.
03
Push to production
When staging checks out, promote the change to your live store. If anything looks wrong, daily backups give you one-click restore.
04
Freeze for peak
With changes proven in advance, you can freeze your live store through peak weeks and focus on orders, not incidents.
