This is the story of how one growing online store scaled 3x faster and achieved 99.99% uptime after moving to Volyte VPS hosting.

The Challenge: Slow Load Times and Unstable Hosting

Our client, a mid-sized e-commerce brand selling lifestyle products across India, was struggling with shared hosting. During festive seasons and flash sales, their website often slowed to a crawl or went offline completely. Customers complained, conversions dropped, and revenue took a hit.

Average page load time: 6+ seconds
Frequent downtime during high-traffic campaigns
Shared hosting limitations on CPU and RAM

Why VPS is the Key for E-commerce Growth

E-commerce platforms cannot rely on shared hosting once traffic starts to grow. VPS hosting offers the balance between affordability and dedicated resources, making it the smartest choice for scaling businesses.

Dedicated resources → No sharing with other websites
Better security → Isolated environment reduces risks
Scalability → Add CPU, RAM, or storage as you grow
High uptime → Ensure your store is always open
