For online stores

Ecommerce hosting for Indian online stores

An online store needs more from its hosting than a brochure site: secure checkout, fast product pages and resources for logged in shoppers. Small stores run well on shared hosting; busy ones need a VPS.

Which plan for which store Help me choose

What a store needs from hosting

HTTPS everywhere

Checkout, login and account pages must be encrypted. SSL is included on shared plans.

Memory for carts

Cart and checkout pages are personal to each shopper and cannot be cached, so they use more server resources.

Servers near your buyers

VPS plans are located in India, close to shoppers across the country.

Backups of orders

Your order database is your business record. Back it up off the server, in addition to weekly backups.

Payments are handled by your payment gateway, not your host

Indian stores usually accept UPI, cards and net banking through a payment gateway that plugs into WooCommerce or your store software. Card details are entered on the gateway’s secure page or form, so your hosting does not store them. Your host’s job is to keep the store online, fast and encrypted.

Plan for sale days

Traffic during festive sales can be many times your normal day. If your store slows down under that load on shared hosting, a VPS gives you dedicated memory and CPU so that one busy evening does not cost you orders. Test your checkout before big campaigns, not during them.

Is shared hosting enough for an online store?

For a new store with a modest catalogue and steady traffic, yes. Move to a VPS when the store slows during busy periods. See shared vs VPS.

Do I need a dedicated IP for SSL?

No. Modern SSL works on shared IP addresses through a standard called SNI. VPS plans include a dedicated IPv4 if you need one for other reasons.

Can I run Shopify on ODHOST?

No. Shopify is a hosted platform that runs on its own servers. ODHOST hosts self managed store software such as WooCommerce.
