Automatic backups

Automatic backups

Rest easy knowing your eCommerce data is safe and secure. We backup your site automatically on a daily basis. These backup points can be used to instantly roll back your site in case of a problem.

Don’t let slow load times affect your business

WooCommerce sites are dynamic and very demanding as they generate a lot of data, as well as un-cachable requests. This means you need robust PHP, database, and caching solutions in place. It’s important when choosing WooCommerce hosting that you choose a container-based host that is built for automatic scaling to handle sudden surges in traffic and load.

  • Revenue drops: Every 1 second delay in page load time decreases conversion rates by 7%.
  • SEO rankings fail: Google favors fast loading sites. Don’t lose your high rankings to the competition.
  • Reduced ROI: If you’re spending a fortune on ads while your site is slow, you’re throwing money out the window.
  • Bad UX: No one likes waiting for a site to load, which means less referrals and higher shopping cart abandonment.

The COO contacted me with an actual solution instead of lot of “trust us” fluff I was getting elsewhere. He was honest and straight-forward which was very refreshing. After migration, support was handled by the CEO who made some excellent suggestions and tweaks which dramatically improved performance.

Kinsta optimizes for WooCommerce

Our WordPress team deals with optimizing high traffic WooCommerce sites on a daily basis. We have seen it all. Here are just a few ways we go further to find the perfect balance between performance and functionality:

  • Fast server-level caching in place with rules to ensure proper WooCommerce functionality.
  • By default, certain WooCommerce pages like cart, my-account, and checkout, are excluded from caching.
  • Users automatically bypass the cache when the “woocommerce_items_in_cart cookie” is detected to ensure a smooth and in-sync checkout process.
  • Ability to programmatically purge individual URLs using the kinsta-cache/purge_list filter.
  • Programmatic purging can also be done via cURL by calling a URL with a prefix provided by our support engineers.
