We have worked with Magento since its inception in March of 2008. Since that time we have worked with thousands of different Magento stores. These stores range from startups to stores doing over 500 million dollars in business. These businesses lean on our eCommerce expertise to guide them through the management of their online store. So, when something goes wrong, even if it is not directly our fault, it can still reflect badly on us. Because of this, we have learned the hard way who to trust and who to recommend, from eCommerce extension developers to hosting providers.

That being said, I want to share the fruit of our hard-learned lessons so you don’t have to make the same mistakes.

First off, I want to explain why is it's important to pick a good hosting provider. The following are some of the hosting issues we have run into over the past two decades:

  • Slow support responses
  • Support not familiar with Magento
  • Support blaming the developer for issues, when in actuality, the root issue is a hosting problem that they do not recognize
  • Site crashing during peak periods
  • Magento performance issues
  • Bottom line for us: Losing clients' respect due to hosting provider issues
  • Bottom line for our clients: Losing revenue due to hosting issues

It's reasons/nightmares like these that led us to finding the two best hosting providers that we trust to give high-quality hosting solutions and support at prices that are more than reasonable. While these providers are not the cheapest, they are a lot less expensive than some of the higher end providers that have failed us and our clients in the past.

So, without further ado...the two hosting providers that we highly recommend to our clients (and now you) are:
