Magento webshop:
comprehensive hosting

When it comes to language and payment options, plug-ins for sales and shipping, as well as security, performance, and usability, we at Hoststar accept no compromises.

Both the small StarEntry and the StarBiz and the large StarPlus vServer packages offer the latest technology, excellent security and plenty of flexibility for your online shop hosting.

SSL certificates
for secure shopping

Free SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt ensure secure, 128- or 256-bit encrypted data transmission between web server and browser. It’s important to note, shoppers are accustomed to SSL encryption when shopping online, and e-shops without it are no longer up to date.

Data security is very important to us. We host your data on German servers, which means that we always treat your data in accordance with GDPR.

Server resources
for full performance

Magento places high demands on servers – at Hoststar, we meet these with 2, 4 or 8 gigabytes of RAM, the latest Perl and PHP versions, unlimited MySQL databases and modern Linux servers. All our packages include SSD storage (of 25, 50 or 100 GB), Apache2 and NGINX web servers with HTTP/2 and a file cache.

We back up your data daily, and we also monitor the infrastructure 365 days a year and control the service area 24/7.

Scalability
and flexibility

You can easily install the Magento software using our installation assistant in the software centre. With many designs and features, you can set up your website exactly as you want it. Your package also includes your own email server, unlimited domains, traffic and email inboxes, as well as SSD cloud storage for the scalability and flexibility required in e-commerce.

The integrated Google Analytics analysis and reporting tool ensures more predictable planning in the face of seasonal fluctuations. The tool gives you insights into the browsing and purchasing behaviour of your users.

with My Panel

You can manage your e-commerce store with My Panel – the central administration tool from Hoststar. All tools, subscriptions, and services related to your Magento hosting, such as e-mail, domains, and SSL, are displayed there and can be changed and expanded with just a few clicks.

Frequently asked questions
about Magento hosting

We have provided answers to frequently asked questions below.

What is Magento hosting?

Magento is a powerful, comprehensive and sophisticated e-commerce software that can be used to create and operate an online shop. To ensure it runs smoothly, Magento requires a certain amount of server power and resources, which are usually provided by a suitable web host such as Hoststar. Magento hosting from Hoststar includes fast SSD storage, the necessary GB RAM, unlimited domains and traffic, as well as many valuable services for setting up your own e-shop.

What are the benefits of Magento hosting?

The advantage of Magento hosting with a host is the infrastructure provided because Magento's wide range of functions requires full hosting performance in terms of speed, storage, security, and support. Hoststar offers you unlimited domains, traffic, e-mail inboxes and MySQL databases, as well as many other features that make hosting more secure, scalable and convenient.

How is Magento different from WordPress?

Magento is an e-commerce software—or an e-commerce CMS—designed for online shops, while WordPress is a content management system (CMS) used for blogs, websites, and shops. WooCommerce is a dedicated shop plugin for WordPress. Whether you run a shop or a blog, investing in powerful Magento or WordPress hosting is definitely worthwhile.
