Dynamic-page cache rules
Cart, checkout, and account pages contain customer-specific state and should remain outside full-page caching.
Managed WooCommerce hosting
WooCommerce hosting
Run a WordPress store on LiteSpeed and NVMe storage with daily recovery points, while keeping cart, checkout, account, inventory, and payment behavior in the application’s control.
Bitfoo manages the hosting platform; you manage the application.

Choose by responsibility
Shared hosting or VPS for a store?
Catalogue size alone does not determine the answer. Traffic patterns, extensions, imports, search, scheduled jobs, and checkout activity all affect the resource profile.
Managed platform
Choose shared WooCommerce hosting
Start with the conventional WordPress stack and a control-panel workflow.
- A new or established store with moderate operational needs
- No custom server services or root access required
- You want Bitfoo to manage the hosting server
Custom environment
Consider a VPS
Move when the store’s workload or dependencies require a server environment your team controls.
- Persistent workers or custom services
- Heavy imports, search, or bespoke integrations
- A team is prepared to operate the server
Production foundation
Build around the transactional path
The store’s uncached requests and operational workflow matter more than an isolated headline speed claim.
02
Database-aware capacity
Product queries, inventory changes, orders, and extension activity all share the hosting account’s allocation.
03
HTTPS throughout
Serve the full store over HTTPS and validate that themes, assets, callbacks, and integrations avoid mixed content.
04
Controlled recovery
Daily restore points help with recovery, but restore timing must be reconciled with orders and payment records.
Plan comparison
Start with headroom for dynamic requests
Business is the practical starting point for a production store. Pro adds capacity for larger or more active stores and for agencies managing several installations.

Before deployment
Test the entire purchase path
A homepage check is not enough for an ecommerce launch. Validate the stateful flows that produce and fulfill an order.
- 01
Run a real test order
Verify product selection, tax, shipping, payment, confirmation email, order status, and refunds in the intended environment.
- 02
Confirm cache exclusions
Keep cart, checkout, account, and other customer-specific endpoints out of full-page caching.
- 03
Observe scheduled work
Check background actions, subscription renewals, webhooks, imports, and any extension-specific scheduled tasks.
- 04
Document recovery
Know how orders created after the selected backup would be reconciled before restoring the database.

Common questions
Should cart and checkout pages be cached?
No. WooCommerce identifies cart, checkout, and account pages as customer-specific. They should bypass full-page caching so each shopper receives current session data.
Is Starter the recommended store plan?
Starter can support testing or a very small installation, but Business is the practical starting point for a production store because it provides more account capacity and SSH access.
Does Bitfoo manage WooCommerce itself?
Bitfoo manages the shared hosting platform. Store configuration, extensions, product data, payment providers, updates, and checkout testing remain the store owner’s responsibility.
When does a store need VPS hosting?
Consider VPS when the store requires custom services, persistent processes, or an environment outside shared-hosting limits—and when someone is ready to administer that server.
