LANSING, Mich., Jan. 16, 2018 — Liquid Web, LLC, (www.liquidweb.com), the market leader in managed hosting and managed application services to SMBs and web professionals, has officially launched the industry’s first platform dedicated to WooCommerce Stores.

“Our Managed WooCommerce Hosting product is more than just a simple one-click plugin installation. We’ve built a real offering,” said Chris Lema, VP of Products and Innovation.  “We’re combining the power of WooCommerce with the industry-leading managed hosting expertise of Liquid Web, allowing store owners to focus on growing their business and leaving the hosting headaches to us.”

WooCommerce is the fastest growing eCommerce platform for store owners today. It sits on top of WordPress which is well known and free.  People choose WooCommerce because they sense that it’s an easy to use platform that they can get started with a minimum investment.  However, as their stores grow, they are challenged by a lack of staff and expertise to handle the increasing need for design, development and devops.  Now they can buy an online store solution with the expectation that they have a provider who is an expert in hosting and a partner in risk mitigation.

The only hosting solution specifically designed for WooCommerce, Liquid Web’s Managed WooCommerce Hosting offering is a unique answer to common pain points for SMB store owners.

Dynamic Resizing Without Downtime

We’ve built a platform that can autoscale.  This elastic and scalable platform gives store owners all the resources they need, helping stores stay fast, without requiring architecture or server changes. https://youtu.be/d8IZ2-nLDkw

High Performance Under Heavy Load

We’ve built a different set of tables to store order data that reduce query loads by 95% and increase capacity (without upgrading plans) by more than 75%. https://youtu.be/Sg2mxzFA8xo

Performance Tests Whenever

We’ve created more than 20 performance tests to help store owners know, in advance, that stores will be ready for whatever traffic comes.  https://youtu.be/v-eyVsUOIOk

Far More Than Google Analytics

Our partnership with Glew means we can help store order information into actionable data that transforms how SMB’s grow their business.  https://youtu.be/afiFqNTmag4

Paying Attention To Abandoned Carts

“Our customer isn’t buying hosting. Or a plugin. They’re not buying technology. They just expect it all to work. This is why we’re in the ‘managed’ business.  We’re innovating and delivering value in a crowded market with a clear sense of the features that make a difference to our SMB stores owners and the designers, developers and agencies who serve them,” said Lema.

“With the addition of Managed WooCommerce Hosting to our product portfolio, we further our mission to empower web dependent professions all over the world to create content and commerce more easily, without worry and knowing they have a real person to turn to when they need help,” said Liquid Web CEO Jim Geiger. “We are very excited about the launch of this innovative product, reaffirming our commitment to simplifying how our SMB customers experience hosting and cloud services and having an important role in powering their business potential.”
