WooCommerce is more demanding than typical WordPress: every page is potentially dynamic (cart, checkout, account), and object caching (Redis or Memcached) matters far more than page caching alone. Hosts without object caching show 2-3x slower checkout times under load. The other under-discussed requirement is memory — WooCommerce easily uses 256MB+ per PHP worker, and budget shared hosting plans capped at 128MB will cause sporadic errors during high traffic. The hosts on this page all clear that bar. For stores doing under $1K/month, Hostinger Business gets the job done. For stores doing $10K+/month, Kinsta's premium pricing pays for itself in conversion uplift from faster checkout.
