Selling online is not just about having a product catalogue on the internet. A successful online shop needs infrastructure that guarantees page load speed, transaction security, permanent availability and the capacity to handle traffic spikes on special occasions.
Why hosting matters especially for e-commerce
In an online shop, every second of load time has a direct impact on sales. Studies consistently show that a one-second delay in page loading can reduce conversions by up to 7%. And any downtime during a sales campaign means direct revenue losses.
What your online shop needs from its hosting
Speed with SSD and advanced caching
SSD drives are the minimum for e-commerce. Combined with caching systems like Redis or Memcached, they guarantee database response times that translate into a smooth shopping experience for users.
SSL included and daily backups
Every e-commerce site processing payments needs SSL as a minimum. At Hosting Andorra, SSL is included in all plans. Automatic daily backups with one-click restoration are essential for any serious online shop.
Scalability for traffic spikes
Black Friday, Christmas, special campaigns: your shop can receive in a few hours the traffic of several weeks. Scalable infrastructure ensures your shop handles the spike without going down.
