Managed WooCommerce hosting, optimized for e-commerce with smart caching that excludes cart and checkout, Redis Object Cache, a container-isolated database and auto-scaling during traffic spikes. A 99.5% SLA and a free hack-fix guarantee.
Customers who trust us
We don't sell hosting on its own. It's included in all our website and online store packages, bundled into one fixed price, so you don't have to assemble services yourself.
2-8 GB RAM per store depending on plan, isolated in its own LXD container. WooCommerce is memory-heavy because every product variant, stock status and cart row has to be held in the PHP process.
Its own MySQL/MariaDB instance from the Medium plan. You don’t share resources with other stores, and queries are optimized specifically for the WooCommerce schema.
Container-based scaling raises CPU and RAM dynamically as traffic climbs. Black Week, the holiday rush and campaigns are handled without queues, wait times or downtime.
Auto-scaling during campaigns like Black Week and the holiday rush. The Large plan has dedicated resources and multi-CDN failover that handle 10× normal traffic without queues at checkout.
Ten standard elements ship with every plan, from edge caching and smart cache bypass on cart and checkout to a premium global CDN, auto-scaling, a hack-fix guarantee and 24-hour support.
Reduces database queries by up to 50%. WooCommerce checkout and product pages load faster when the server doesn’t have to query the database for every single request. Edge caching in front of the server delivers under 100 ms on cached pages.
A dedicated database instance in an isolated LXD container, tuned for WooCommerce. No neighbours grabbing resources when your campaign hits. You get the entire database to yourself.
Edge caching optimized for e-commerce: full-page cache on catalog and product pages, but never on cart, checkout or account pages. Customers get fast product pages without transactions being broken by the cache.
Free SSL renews automatically. HTTP/3 and Brotli compression out of the box. EV (Extended Validation) available on Large for stores that want the green company name.
A premium global CDN with 35+ data centers and over 300 nodes. Images are optimized to WebP automatically and delivered from the nearest node. Multi-CDN failover keeps you running even if one provider drops.
A Web Application Firewall, DDoS protection and automatic IP blocking on the server side. A brute-force shield stops attacks before they reach WordPress. If the store gets hacked, we fix it free.
Encrypted backups of files and database every night. Stored off-site within the EU/EEA for 14-30 days. Restored in under 4 hours after data loss, hacking or a failed update.
Clone the store to an identical test environment with one click. Test new products, campaigns or plugin updates risk-free, then deploy to production when you are ready. WP-CLI, SSH and Git deploy are supported.
60-second polling from four different geographic locations. Alerts via SMS and email if the store goes down. A 99.5% SLA as a baseline and auto-scaling during traffic spikes.
A team that knows WooCommerce, Stripe and PayPal. 24-hour response time on Small, 12 hours on Medium and 4 hours on Large. Reaction time on critical issues: 1 hour.
Fast, secure operation for your store from the start. A quick checkout means fewer lost sales, and we keep the store up so you never miss an order.
Our most popular choice for stores that sell every day. Extra speed and capacity that handle campaigns and spikes, with a dedicated contact when it’s urgent.
For online stores with high sales volume. Maximum performance that keeps the checkout open and lightning-fast, even when traffic floods in on Black Friday and the holiday rush.
All prices exclude VAT. 12-month term · 3 months written notice before expiry. You own the store yourself and can move it on cancellation.
Three clear scenarios, from smaller newly started stores to Black Friday scale with B2B and multi-currency.
Newly started and smaller online stores with 10-100 products. Small gives enough resources to keep the store quick and stable, without paying for capacity you don’t need yet.
Established stores with steady traffic and periodic spikes around Black Week, Mother’s Day and the holiday rush. Medium gives a container-isolated database and staging so campaigns can be tested risk-free.
Large stores that handle 10× traffic during campaign periods, export across borders, run B2B pricing and have complex ERP integrations. Large gives dedicated resources, multi-CDN failover and a 99.9% SLA.

Standard WordPress hosting doesn't hold up when a store grows. Four technical reasons why e-commerce needs its own configuration, and why regular hosting falls short.
WooCommerce runs 100-300 more database queries per page than standard WordPress. Hosting without Redis Object Cache and a dedicated MySQL becomes a bottleneck at just 50 concurrent visitors.
A standard page cache that serves pre-built HTML pages cannot be used on cart, checkout and "my account". Hosting must know the difference and bypass the cache for dynamic endpoints.
Black Week, the holiday rush and campaigns can bring 5-10× normal traffic. Container-based auto-scaling raises CPU and RAM dynamically as traffic climbs, so the store never goes down on the most important sales days.
A typical product page has 8-20 images at 200 KB+. Without a CDN, Largest Contentful Paint climbs past 3 seconds, and 32% of visitors leave before the page loads. A premium global CDN with automatic WebP and image optimization is included.

Free migration with a 12-month term on Medium or Large. A transparent 4-step process where we take responsibility for the entire move, including SEO preservation and the DNS switch.
We export products, variants, orders, customer data, blog and redirects from Shopify. Everything is mapped to WooCommerce format with the right tax, categories and image aliases.
A new WooCommerce installation is set up on a Medium or Large plan. The theme is migrated, plugins for payments and shipping installed. All URLs are kept identical for SEO preservation.
We run real test transactions through Stripe, PayPal and Klarna. Carrier shipping is verified with tracking codes. You test it yourself before we go live.
DNS is repointed in a low-traffic window. 301 redirects on all old URLs. We monitor conversion, search rankings and technical errors for 30 days and fix them at no extra cost.
With clear cancellation terms, migration costs from $799 as a one-time fee.
Direct answers to what online stores wonder most before switching hosting.
WooCommerce hosting is web hosting configured specifically for e-commerce on WordPress. Unlike regular hosting, you get:
HomepageHero delivers this from $69/mo with support.
At HomepageHero, WooCommerce hosting starts from $69/mo. Three fixed plans:
All prices are a fixed price with no hidden fees. Smart caching, Redis Object Cache, a premium global CDN and daily backups are included on every plan.
The following payment solutions are tested and approved on all our plans:
We set up the payment solutions free during migration, and test them with real transactions before launch.
TLS 1.3, a hardened OS and an encrypted connection are standard on the server. You don’t have to do anything yourself for card payments to work securely.
Yes. With a 12-month term on Large, migration from Shopify is free. We move:
Payments and shipping are set up and tested with real transactions before the DNS switch. After go-live we monitor conversion and rankings for 30 days.
The Large plan has dedicated server resources that are not shared with other stores. We raise auto-scaling on Cloudflare for two weeks around Black Week. The Redis cache and dedicated database handle 10× normal traffic without queues.
30 days before the campaign period we do a free Black Friday health check:
The 99.5% SLA also applies during campaign periods.
Hosting and maintenance are two separate services.
Hosting makes sure the server runs:
Maintenance covers the WooCommerce installation itself:
You can buy maintenance separately from $69/mo, or bundle it with hosting and save 15%.
The primary server sits in a Tier III data center in the Oslo region. A backup replica sits in a separate Tier III data center in Stockholm.
Cloudflare CDN delivers static files (images, CSS, JavaScript) from 300+ nodes worldwide, so customers get a response in ~5 ms.
Storage within the EEA meets GDPR requirements without extra data-processing agreements.
Large customers can choose a dedicated server location if they have specific compliance requirements.
No. One hosting environment is built for one store. That gives the best performance, isolated resources and simpler operation per store.
If you need multiple stores, we set up a separate hosting agreement per store. Each store then gets:
All hosting agreements can be managed from the same customer area, but are technically isolated from each other. Contact us for a quote on a multi-store setup.
