Buy affordable hosting for Shop-Script — quick setup and stable performance

We understand that in Webasyst, the core framework and numerous installed plugins can slow down the site. That’s why we don’t use old HDDs — only SSDs that are 30 times faster. This provides instant database response. Plus, we have configured server caching so that heavy Shop-Script queries do not keep customers waiting more than 1 second for a page to load.

There is no one-size-fits-all answer, but based on experience:

• For a small store with 100–200 products, the standard plan with SSD and PHP 8+ support will suffice.
• If you have hundreds of thousands of products, active filters, complex selection logic, and thousands of visits per day, it is essential that the hosting provides more RAM, fast database response, and scalability options.

This is especially important for SEO speed and customer experience — a slow store equals lost sales.

This is a classic Shop-Script issue. When you upload photos, the server needs to crop them into different sizes. On cheap hosting, this often causes a "500" error or freezing. Our servers use the Imagick library with high processing limits. Your thumbnails will be generated on the fly without any failures, even if you are bulk updating the catalog.

Importing is a serious test for the CPU and memory. We have specifically increased the memory_limit and max_execution_time for plans meant for Shop-Script. You will be able to upload price lists for 20,000+ products without the connection dropping in the middle of the process.

Of course. The Webasyst framework allows you to manage multiple stores from one admin panel. Our hosting fully supports this feature: you simply add new domains in the control panel, and we ensure that there are enough resources for each of your projects, whether it's a main store or a separate landing page for a promotion.

Security in e-commerce is our top priority. We provide free SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt so that all payments and personal data are encrypted. Additionally, our server-level antivirus and DDoS protection are in place. Even if a plugin in Shop-Script turns out to be vulnerable, our web application firewall (WAF) will help block suspicious activity.

In Shop-Script, Cron means a lot: from notifications to customers to updating delivery statuses. We have simplified this as much as possible: there is a user-friendly scheduler in the control panel where you can write the necessary commands in 30 seconds. If you encounter difficulties, our support team will provide a ready path to the script tailored specifically for your account.

Definitely yes. Caching helps the site deliver pages faster, reduces the load on the database, and decreases page generation time. Shop-Script can utilize various caching mechanisms (file, server-side, CDN cache). All of this helps maintain speed even as traffic increases.

Often, this is not due to the CMS, but because of module conflicts or weak server performance. Check: what modules are connected, how caching is configured, and the hardware of the hosting. Sometimes the issue can be resolved with simple settings—by increasing PHP limits, enabling OPcache, or analyzing database queries.
