The OVHcloud Professional Web Hosting plan is mainly aimed at professionals. It offers the performance of a professional server, which is necessary for day-to-day website management. It also comes with a multitude of services adapted to freelancers, as well as small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
Which cloud hosting package is best for an online store?
Our Performance Hosting plan is the best solution for hosting an online store (e-commerce). It offers the best performance possible, with a dedicated hosting system that provides your website with guaranteed resources and more disk space. You also get several databases, plus a large number of email accounts. Finally, you can choose to have the PrestaShop CMS automatically installed, to make it easier to create an online store on your e-commerce hosting plan.
Which hosting plan is best for a WordPress blog?
If you just want to host your personal blog on WordPress, we recommend opting for our Personal Hosting plan. It provides you with all the services you need to get your blog or small personal website up and running on the internet, which makes it perfect for WordPress hosting. If your website is receiving an increasing number of visitors, we would advise giving your project some growing room by choosing the Professional Web Hosting plan, which will help absorb the increasing traffic.
How do I install Joomla! on my Web Hosting plan?
It’s a very simple process. You can choose to install Joomla! in the order process for your Web Hosting plan. Otherwise, you can install it later from your hosting Control Panel, in the “1-click modules” tab. You can also install it yourself, by downloading it directly from the official Joomla! website.
How do I install Drupal on my Web Hosting plan?
We offer the option of installing Drupal automatically on your Web Hosting plan as part of the order process. You can also install it later by going to the Web Hosting section of your OVHcloud Control Panel, and clicking on the “1-click modules” tab. Or you can install it yourself, by downloading it directly from the official Drupal website.
What is the difference between shared hosting and dedicated hosting?
With a shared hosting solution, you can use a web server’s features without needing any technical knowledge. They also have a much more affordable price tag than a dedicated server, with resources sized to suit your needs. Dedicated servers are designed for more complex uses that require high resources (RAM, CPU, disk space), and total freedom to configure the server.
What is a CMS used for?
A content management system, also called a CMS, is a site builder tool designed to help you create and manage your website. Bring your web project to life using an easy-to-use interface for creating your pages and designing their layout. There are many CMS tools on the market, but the most well-known tools are WordPress, PrestaShop, Drupal and Joomla!.
