Magento program – How to find the right hosting for Mage?

by | Feb 20, 2018 | Blog | 0 comments

The Magento program has been downloaded more than 4 million times. And since 2017, more than 48,000 Mage stores have been set up. The popularity is because Magento offers a store that is easy to install and use. It also has a free version for small and medium business owners. However Magento does come without hosting. For most however this is a boon. You can now host your Magento store on any hosting server according to your budget and requirements. Let’s now see what is the right hosting for a Magento store.

Hosting for the Magento program:

Cloud

Magento is a huge program which has some requirements for it to run efficiently. Always opt for a host that has updated its resources to support the latest Magento program. Also always choose a cloud plan over others. Cloud offers flexibility that no other hosting plan can give. One of the biggest advantage is that you can increase your resources whenever you need them. This means you don’t have to close shop and disrupt the shopping time of your customers.

The right hosting partner collaboration can help boost your store’s success.

Disk Space

Magento experts recommend a minimum of 25gb for the magento program to run smoothly. Don’t forget, you are not going to just install magento, but also the theme, and all the extension files.

Uptime

A reliable host is one that guarantees your store will always be online. This means that your host must have an up time of 99%. You don’t want your customers to get the “Site not available” message. Also some hosting companies provide SLA with their up time guarantees.
