Can I use WooCommerce on shared hosting?

Saddysybug

I'm thinking about setting up a small online store using WooCommerce, but I'm not sure if my shared hosting plan will be able to handle it. Can anyone tell me if WooCommerce will work on shared hosting, or do I need to upgrade to a VPS?I'm not familiar with WooCommerce, but from what I can tell, it should work on shared hosting. You might want to check with your hosting provider to see if they have any specific recommendations, though.

Yes, you can run WooCommerce on shared hosting. However, we recommend using WordPress hosting that is optimized for WooCommerce, such as our managed WordPress hosting plans. These plans include features like faster load times, pre-installed WooCommerce, and automatic updates.

Yes, you can run WooCommerce on shared hosting, but we recommend using a VPS or dedicated server for optimal performance. Shared hosting can be slower and less reliable than a VPS or dedicated server, and you may need to contact your host to increase PHP memory limits and disable caching plugins to avoid issues.
