Why Sell From Here
The full toolkit for converting more visitors
Pace that protects the sale
Cart and payment pages accelerate 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 pre-secured — isolation per account, free SSL, modern TLS — and drops straight in beside any PCI-compliant gateway.
99.9% uptime, or we credit you
Duplicate hardware in our London facility keeps the store trading, and the 99.9% figure carries a guarantee: fall short in any month and a pro-rated credit follows.
Scales with the order book
When demand picks up, extra CPU, RAM and storage are two clicks away — the catalog and settings ride along untouched, no server move required.
Watched every hour
Backups on autopilot, 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
Each minute offline is revenue gone, so tickets and email land with genuine engineers at any hour — nobody bounces you between departments.
No Waiting
A checkout as quick as your customers
Sluggish pages quietly leak orders, and no report ever flags them. Here the store rides on all-NVMe hardware with commerce-aware caching, so catalog, cart 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 cart pages that fly
Locked-Down Payments
A hardened base for taking payments
Nobody types card details into a page they doubt. 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
- Modern TLS end to end

FAQ
Store hosting questions, answered
What sets ecommerce hosting apart from normal hosting?
Ecommerce 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, carts and sessions can't be blindly cached, inventory shifts by the minute, and the encrypted checkout has to stay reachable under pressure. Our plans answer with all-NVMe storage for fast catalog and cart pages, caching smart enough to leave carts 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 automated backups 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 transaction fee nibbling at every order you take.
Do these plans force me onto WooCommerce?
No — the plans are simply arranged around it, for solid reasons. WooCommerce comes ready on WordPress because it's open source, extends in any direction, and skips the per-sale cut hosted store platforms typically take, leaving each order's full margin with you. From there, you pick the theme, install the extensions your store needs and connect the payment gateway you prefer. Want a different PHP store platform instead? Underneath sits ordinary cPanel with Softaculous and its 240-plus one-click installers, plus SSH, Git and Composer for deploying by hand. You also get up to 100 MySQL or MariaDB databases with phpMyAdmin to manage 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 a single platform.
Why is the checkout here faster than average?
Two factors 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, cart and order lookups come back fast. The caching layer is commerce-literate too: static and catalog pages serve from cache while carts, sessions, coupons and stock counts stay live and correct, so no one ever meets a stranger's cart or an outdated price. LiteSpeed, HTTP/2 and current PHP 8.x builds keep request handling lean, and free SSL adds encryption at negligible speed cost. Because your account carries resources of its own, performance holds as traffic rises — a quiet Tuesday and your biggest sale day should feel much the same.
Where do security and PCI compliance stand on these plans?
In good shape. Free auto-renewing SSL wraps the entire checkout in modern 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 selling through an attack. PCI compliance splits between you and your gateway — and usefully, most providers such as Stripe and PayPal process card numbers on their own systems, so raw card data never reaches your server. That places you in the lightest PCI band, typically a brief self-assessment questionnaire, while we deliver 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 total confidence.
How does the platform behave when traffic takes off?
Taking off is the goal, 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 specs suggest, because most catalog requests come out of cache instead of being rebuilt. When a launch, flash sale or holiday rush pushes past that, moving up a tier takes a couple of clicks and adds CPU, RAM and storage — no re-platforming, no migration, nothing rebuilt. Catalog, 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 checkout open on precisely the days revenue depends on it. See a surge coming? Scale up ahead of time and drop back once it passes.
Can I have my current store migrated here without doing it myself?
Yes — our team does it, and it's 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've 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 to none. Where possible we assemble the store on a staging URL first, letting you click around and place a test order to prove everything transferred cleanly before DNS changes hands. When you're satisfied, the domain points to us and free SSL switches on automatically. Got a custom theme or an unusual extension in the mix? Note it in the ticket and we'll plan the migration around it.

Browse Store PlansEvery extra second on a product page is a customer drifting toward a competitor. Stores need instant storage, an unbroken padlock and backups that run whether anyone remembers or not. Every account runs on NVMe storage with LiteSpeed ahead of it, in our London datacentre — monitored by the same engineers who handle your tickets.
Built for sellers processing payments online. Free SSL, a free transfer from your current host, daily backups and round-the-clock support all ride along in the price — no surprise add-ons at checkout.
Hosting that keeps orders flowing
NVMe storage keeps database queries snappy, LiteSpeed caches the catalogue pages, and OPcache serves compiled PHP without a pause. Free SSL secures the checkout, daily backups protect the orders, and the one-click installers stand up WooCommerce, Magento, OpenCart or PrestaShop in under a minute.
Speed is engineered in, not bolted on with a plugin: NVMe arrays keep reads instant, LiteSpeed responds over HTTP/2, and the server caches before your application lifts a finger.
The cost of hosting a store
Hosting's oldest move is a cheap first year and a quiet hike at renewal. HostingFast runs the opposite way: the number you join at is the number that renews, and anything promotional is flagged on the page before you pay. Every hosting plan includes a 30-day money-back guarantee, so a test run risks nothing but an afternoon.
Open on a plan from $2.42 a month and shift to a VPS at $13.52 once catalogue and traffic warrant it. Neither step forces a rebuild, and neither price drifts at renewal.
The engine behind an online store
Stores operate in our London datacentre behind edge DDoS filtering, on NVMe arrays with daily backups of files and database. When a payment gateway asks about encryption, the certificate already exists and already renews itself.
Support runs every hour of the day, staffed by the people who administer these servers, with a first reply targeted inside 2 hours — 1 hour when a site is down. No tier hands you off 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 store 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 big and the budget agrees. Each installs in one click, and our desk gives you a straight answer on which fits the plan you are considering.
How long until everything is running?
The account provisions itself at checkout — minutes, not days. If an existing store needs bringing over, our migration team typically wraps up inside 24 hours and schedules the cutover so nothing goes offline.
Is the renewal rate different from the joining rate?
The plan renews at your joining price. If a first-term promotion applied, its renewal figure was shown beside it before you ordered — nothing surfaces later.
What if ecommerce hosting is not right for me?
The plan carries a 30-day money-back guarantee. Say the word within the month and the refund goes through — no exit interview, no hand-off to a retention team paid to argue with you.
