WooCommerce hosting that
scales with your revenue.
Your shop stays fast on your busiest day. On Standard it gets extra power by itself during a sale, and carts and checkout always show live prices and stock — never an old saved page.

What happens when your hosting can’t keep up
A shop asks more of its hosting than a normal website: carts that stay put, payment confirmations that arrive, the right server add-ons, and room for busy days. Cheap hosting often gets one of these wrong.
A slow checkout loses sales
On a crowded shared server, your shop competes with many other websites for the same computing power. With us, your shop has its own reserved share that nobody else can use.
Carts that disappear
When carts are saved on one busy server, customers add products, leave for a minute, come back and find their cart empty. Most don’t try again.
Missed payment confirmations
After a customer pays, the payment provider sends a message to your shop. If the server is too slow to answer, that message can fail: the money is taken, but the order is never marked as paid.
Missing server add-ons
WooCommerce needs a few server add-ons for product images, shipping costs and exact prices. Some cheap hosts don’t include them all, and you only find out when something breaks.
Built for shops, not adapted for them
Carts that stay put
Your customers’ carts are kept in fast shared memory, not on one server, so they survive when a server restarts or a visitor is moved to another server.
That memory has a backup copy that takes over by itself if it fails; carts saved in the few seconds of that switch can be lost.
Carts, checkout and logged-in customers always see live pages, never an old saved copy, so prices and stock are always up to date.
Extra power for your sale
Flash sale, newsletter, or a post that goes viral? On Standard (from €5.99 a month + VAT), your shop adds extra copies of itself while it’s busy and removes them when the rush is over. You pay only for the extra hours.
Worried about the bill? Set a spending limit and an alert in your dashboard. We warn you as costs climb, and your usage never goes over the limit you set (your plan’s monthly minimum always applies).
Payment confirmations that arrive
When a customer pays, the payment provider sends a confirmation to your shop. It lands on your shop’s own reserved resources, not a crowded shared server.
Our server settings also let it finish even if the provider’s connection drops halfway.
Everything WooCommerce needs, installed
Every shop comes with the server add-ons WooCommerce and its plugins need. Nothing to request, nothing to install.
- Product images and thumbnails
- Shipping and payment connections to couriers and gateways
- Exact price and tax maths, with no rounding errors
- Currencies and languages
- Downloadable products and exports
Extra power for your sale, with a limit you set
A busy weekend costs a few busy days, not a bigger plan all year. And if you want a hard ceiling, set a monthly limit and your usage never goes beyond it.
Set a monthly limit
Per site, or one limit for your whole account. You decide the amount.
See it coming
Live usage with a projected month-end total, and an email alert at an amount or percentage you choose.
Get a suggested limit
Not sure what to set? The dashboard suggests a limit based on your site’s own usage.
Never beyond it
Near the limit, extra power is held back; at the limit, the site pauses until the next month starts. Raise or remove the limit and it’s back within an hour.
Usage never bills beyond your limit. Your plan’s monthly minimum (€3.49 on Micro, €5.99 on Standard, + VAT) always applies.
Everything a shop needs, included
Built-in speed cache
Product pages, categories and search results load from memory instead of asking the database every time.
Carts kept in memory
Carts survive a server restart and visitors being moved between servers.
Images from fast storage
Product images load from separate storage, not your shop’s server, so the server stays free for orders. You can also switch on a CDN.
A backup database, ready
Your database has live standby copies. If a database server fails, a copy takes over by itself — in our tests in about 14 seconds, with no lost orders.
More power when busy
On Standard, your shop gets extra power for a sale or campaign and gives it back afterwards. You pay only for what you use.
Free SSL
A free security certificate on every shop that renews itself, so the padlock always shows.
Backups every night
Your shop’s database and files are backed up every night and kept for 30 days, on separate storage in the EU. Restore with one click.
A private test copy
Try WooCommerce updates, new plugins or a new theme on a private copy first. When it works, publish it. Your live shop isn’t touched.
Malware checks
Every night, and whenever a plugin is installed or new code is uploaded. Shops are a favourite target, so we check often.

Technical details
What runs your shop, for the developer or agency evaluating us. The full architecture is on How it works, and security testing is on Security.
Site isolation
Each site runs in its own sealed-off environment, with reserved CPU and memory and its own database. Sites can’t reach each other.
Web server and PHP
OpenLiteSpeed with LiteSpeed PHP. Cart, checkout, my-account and logged-in pages are never cached, so they always show live data.
PHP extensions
GD, SOAP, BCMath, intl and zip on every site, plus what common WooCommerce payment, shipping and invoicing plugins expect.
Database
MariaDB, with phpMyAdmin opened from your dashboard in one click. Automatic failover to a live copy — in our tests about 14 seconds, with no lost writes.
Updates
WordPress core runs from a clean, protected copy. Platform updates roll out with zero downtime.
Access
A WP-CLI terminal over SSH with your own SSH keys, a browser WP-CLI console, and one-click login to wp-admin.
Backups
Database, files and media backed up every night, kept 30 days on separate EU storage, one-click restore.
Location
Hosted mainly in Germany, and always within the EU, in ISO 27001-certified data centres. With the CDN switched on, your images and static files are also served from locations across Europe, including Greece.
Auto-scaling (Standard)
Your shop gets more power by itself when it’s busy, and you only pay for the hours it’s used.
More copies when you’re busy
When traffic climbs, extra copies of your shop start automatically on other servers and share the visitors. When the rush is over, they’re removed again.
Always at least two
On Standard your shop always runs on at least two servers at once, so one failing doesn’t take it offline.
No plan to outgrow
There’s no fixed package to upgrade when you grow. If your shop ever needs more than its usual ceiling, we raise it on request.
Every copy in step
All copies run the same plugins, theme and media. A plugin install or update reaches every copy within seconds, and shops can switch on Strict mode so every visitor always sees the latest data.
Pay for the busy hours only
Billing is by the hour, with your monthly price as the minimum. A three-day sale costs you three busy days, not a bigger plan all year.
A spending limit you set
Set a monthly limit and alerts in your dashboard. Usage never bills beyond your limit (your plan’s monthly minimum always applies); raise or remove it and the site is released within an hour.
Nothing to do
No settings to tune, no servers to order, no support ticket. It happens by itself, day or night.
Micro runs on one
Micro (€3.49 a month + VAT) runs your site on a single server with no auto-scaling. Switch a site to Standard (€5.99 a month + VAT) at any time.
Redis caching
A memory cache that makes your shop faster and keeps carts safe.
Object cache on every site
Redis keeps the results of repeated database queries in memory, so product pages, categories and search results load without asking the database every time.
Sessions and carts
Customer sessions are stored in Redis, not on one server, so carts survive a server restart and visitors being moved between servers.
Separate per site
Each site’s cache is kept apart from every other site’s, so nothing is shared or mixed up.
A live backup copy
Redis runs with a backup copy that takes over by itself if it fails. Sessions saved during those few seconds can be lost.
Fails safe
If the cache is ever unreachable, your site keeps working and reads from the database until it’s back, instead of hanging.
Nothing to set up
The Redis object cache is installed and connected on every site automatically. No plugin to configure, no connection details to enter.
Security
How your shop is protected, layer by layer.
Web application firewall
Sits in front of every site and blocks common attacks, such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting, and vulnerability scanners before they reach WordPress. Every blocked request shows in your dashboard, and you can allow a false alarm with one click.
Malware scanning
Every site is scanned every night and again whenever a plugin is installed. Findings raise an alert and appear in your dashboard.
Login protection
Repeated failed logins are blocked automatically, every attempt is recorded in a login history, and you can move the login page to a private address.
Isolation, tested
We attacked it ourselves: with one site pushed to full CPU, and another driven out of memory, the site next to it kept running normally, in our tests.
Protected WordPress core
WordPress core runs from a clean, protected copy, so a tampered core file doesn’t survive a restart. Plugins, themes and uploads are what the nightly scan checks.
Monitoring around the clock
Intrusion detection watches every site’s environment and every server, and the software your site runs on is checked continuously for known vulnerabilities.
Encryption and account security
Free SSL on every site, renewed automatically. Platform credentials are encrypted at rest. Two-factor sign-in and an activity log protect your account.
Your data in the EU
Sites, databases and backups stay in the EU. Every company that touches your data is named in our Data Processing Agreement.
Media storage
Where your product images live, and why it matters for speed.
Not on your web server
Images, PDFs and downloads live on separate, replicated storage in the EU, not on the server that runs WordPress.
Served straight from storage
Media requests are answered directly from that storage, without going through WordPress or PHP, so they never take computing power away from your pages and checkout.
The same on every server
Every server running your shop sees the same files, so a new server added during a sale has all your product images from the first second.
Safe if a server fails
A server failing or being replaced never loses a file. Media is also included in the nightly backups.
Optional CDN
Switch on a CDN for any site to cache images and static files closer to your visitors.
Frequently asked
To sell legally in Greece you'll typically need an active business (a tax number / ΑΦΜ with the right ΚΑΔ for online retail), registration with your tax office (ΔΟΥ) and GEMI (ΓΕΜΗ) where applicable, correct VAT handling, and a compliant privacy policy and terms of use. Grandhosting covers the hosting side — a fast, isolated, GDPR-ready WooCommerce environment on EU servers — so you can focus on the business setup. This is general information, not legal or tax advice; check with your accountant.
Για να πουλάς νόμιμα στην Ελλάδα χρειάζεσαι συνήθως ενεργή επιχείρηση (ΑΦΜ με κατάλληλο ΚΑΔ για ηλεκτρονικό/λιανικό εμπόριο), έναρξη στη ΔΟΥ και εγγραφή στο ΓΕΜΗ όπου απαιτείται, σωστό χειρισμό ΦΠΑ, και συμμορφωμένη πολιτική απορρήτου και όρους χρήσης. Το Grandhosting αναλαμβάνει το κομμάτι της φιλοξενίας — ένα γρήγορο, απομονωμένο, GDPR-ready περιβάλλον WooCommerce σε servers εντός ΕΕ — ώστε εσύ να επικεντρωθείς στη σύσταση της επιχείρησης. Πρόκειται για γενική ενημέρωση, όχι νομική ή φορολογική συμβουλή· συμβουλέψου τον λογιστή σου.
Your site, its database, and its backups are all stored inside ISO 27001-certified data centers within the European Union, and our analytics are cookie-free — which keeps the hosting side straightforwardly GDPR-compliant. You're still responsible for your store's own privacy policy, cookie consent for any third-party trackers you add, and how you process customer data — but the infrastructure won't be what holds you back.
Το site σου, η βάση δεδομένων του και τα backups του αποθηκεύονται όλα σε data centers πιστοποιημένα κατά ISO 27001 εντός της Ευρωπαϊκής Ένωσης, και τα analytics μας είναι χωρίς cookies — κάτι που κρατά το κομμάτι της φιλοξενίας απλά και ξεκάθαρα συμβατό με το GDPR. Παραμένεις υπεύθυνος για τη δική σου πολιτική απορρήτου, τη συγκατάθεση cookies για όποια εργαλεία τρίτων προσθέτεις, και τον τρόπο που επεξεργάζεσαι τα δεδομένα πελατών — αλλά η υποδομή δεν θα είναι αυτό που θα σε εμποδίσει.
Speed affects both how many visitors you get and how many of them buy. Google uses page experience (including Core Web Vitals) as a ranking signal, so a slow store ranks lower — and every extra second of load time measurably increases cart abandonment. That's why every shop gets a built-in speed cache, images served from separate fast storage, an optional CDN and, on Standard, extra power during a sale — all on its own reserved resources, not shared with anyone else.
Η ταχύτητα επηρεάζει και πόσους επισκέπτες έχεις και πόσοι από αυτούς αγοράζουν. Το Google χρησιμοποιεί την εμπειρία σελίδας (μαζί με τα Core Web Vitals) ως παράγοντα κατάταξης, οπότε ένα αργό κατάστημα κατατάσσεται χαμηλότερα — και κάθε επιπλέον δευτερόλεπτο φόρτωσης αυξάνει μετρήσιμα την εγκατάλειψη καλαθιού. Γι' αυτό κάθε κατάστημα έχει ενσωματωμένη μνήμη ταχύτητας (cache), εικόνες από ξεχωριστό γρήγορο χώρο αποθήκευσης, προαιρετικό CDN και, στο Standard, επιπλέον ισχύ σε περίοδο προσφορών — όλα σε δικούς του δεσμευμένους πόρους που δεν μοιράζεται με κανέναν.
