Unmetered Web Hosting
How much bandwidth will my plan include?
Bandwidth is "Unmetered" which means you are not charged according to the amount of bandwidth you typically use in the normal operation of a personal or small business website.
However, we do require all customers to be fully compliant with our Terms of Service and to not exceed 25% or more of system resources for longer than 90 seconds.
What happens if I exceed usage?
If we have concerns about your account's bandwidth utilization, you will receive an email asking you to reduce usage.
It is rare for a customer who is managing a personal or small business website to exceed our usage policies.
Multiple Data Centers
Deploy your VPS closer to your users with multiple data center locations, helping reduce latency and improve performance.

Infrastructure Only Support
We maintain the hardware, network, and virtualization layer. You manage your OS, configurations, and applications.
These Self Managed VPS plans are perfect when you want full control of your server and are comfortable managing your own software, configurations, and applications. If you prefer assisted management, explore our Managed VPS or Dedicated options.
What is WooCommerce VPS and how does it work?
WooCommerce gives you design freedom and data ownership. A VPS extends that control to your infrastructure, without shared environments or vendor lock-in. But that flexibility brings backend demands standard hosting may not handle.
A WooCommerce VPS gives your store dedicated CPU, RAM and NVMe storage, completely isolated from other sites. This means carts, checkouts and database queries run smoothly, even during traffic spikes.
With full root access, you can install Redis caching, optimize your database and customize your stack. The result: faster page loads, responsive checkouts, and steady performance under traffic.
Self-managed WooCommerce vs. managed WooCommerce: Which setup is right for you?
Compare both approaches to decide how much control, customization and cost-efficiency your WooCommerce store really needs.
Self-managed WooCommerce
- Full root-level access to your server and database
- Flat, predictable pricing with no revenue sharing or transaction fees
- Total data ownership with zero vendor lock-in
- Deep performance tuning, including Redis caching and database optimization
- Best suited for developers and technical teams
Managed WooCommerce
- Hosting provider handles updates, patches and monitoring
- Faster onboarding for non-technical users
- Less hands-on server management required
- Provider-managed updates, security and infrastructure
- Standardized hosting environment for easier administration

FAQs: WooCommerce VPS Hosting
What is WooCommerce VPS hosting and how does it work?
WooCommerce VPS Hosting gives your WordPress-based online store its own dedicated virtual server, with isolated CPU, RAM and NVMe storage, instead of sharing resources with other websites. This means your product pages, checkout flows and database queries run on infrastructure built specifically to handle WooCommerce's dynamic, transaction-heavy workloads, without the slowdowns typical of standard shared hosting.
Why should I host WooCommerce on a VPS instead of shared hosting?
WooCommerce relies on live database queries for shopping carts, inventory checks, and real-time checkout, actions that shared hosting environments struggle to handle under traffic. A VPS gives you dedicated, unshared hardware and predictable performance, so your store stays fast and stable even during high-volume sales, flash promotions, or seasonal spikes, without the resource bottlenecks or forced plan upgrades common on generic hosting.
Do I get root access with WooCommerce VPS hosting?
Yes. Bluehost WooCommerce VPS Hosting includes full Root-Level Operating Authority, complete administrative access to your server's kernel and configuration files. This lets your technical team customize server protocols, set up custom firewalls and fine-tune your environment exactly the way your store needs.
What's the difference between managed and Self-Managed WooCommerce Hosting?
Managed WooCommerce hosting handles server configuration and maintenance for you, often at the cost of flexibility and control. Self-Managed WooCommerce Hosting on a Bluehost VPS gives you full root access and complete ownership of your server environment. You can install custom software, configure caching layers like Redis and optimize your database exactly how you want, without platform restrictions.
Do I need technical knowledge to manage a WooCommerce VPS Server?
Since a WooCommerce VPS Server is self-managed, having development or server administration experience helps you get the most out of root-level access, including database tuning, caching setup and custom configurations. If you're an agency or developer comfortable working directly with server environments, this setup gives you complete control over performance and security.
Can I install Redis caching on my WooCommerce VPS Server?
Yes. With Root-Level Operating Authority, you can install and configure Redis Object Cache or other server-side caching tools directly on your WooCommerce VPS Server. This helps eliminate database bottlenecks by storing product variations, order histories and cart sessions in fast memory layers, significantly speeding up your store's performance.
What happens to my store during traffic spikes?
Bluehost VPS is independently ranked 2nd in Performance Stability with a Grade A rating from VPSBenchmarks, meaning your server delivers consistent response times even under heavy load. Whether it's a holiday sale, social media mention, or email blast, your isolated compute environment ensures your store stays online and responsive, without throttling or downtime.
Can I host multiple WooCommerce stores on one VPS for WooCommerce?
Yes. Bluehost VPS is well-suited for agencies and developers managing multiple client storefronts, staging environments, or scaled retail architectures. Dedicated, isolated resources mean you can run several WooCommerce sites on a single server without one store's traffic or performance impacting another.
Can I migrate my store from another provider to Bluehost VPS for WooCommerce?
Yes. Unlike closed SaaS platforms that lock in your data and make switching difficult, WooCommerce on Bluehost VPS gives you zero lock-in and total data ownership. You can back up, migrate, or mirror your entire store setup to Bluehost's infrastructure without losing your database, custom code, or configurations.
What support does Bluehost WooCommerce Hosting VPS provide?
Bluehost WooCommerce Hosting VPS includes dedicated infrastructure and hardware support across all plan tiers, ensuring the underlying server environment, including uptime, hardware performance and network reliability is maintained. Since it's self-managed, your team retains full control over software-level configuration, plugins and application-specific setup.
