For ecommerce store owners, it is important to meet the expectations of customers by creating a feature rich online store. Additionally, you need to make sure your products are properly stocked and the site loads within 3 seconds.
To make the best of what you have, it is important to choose a reliable cloud infrastructure provider and a trustworthy managed hosting service. Installing PrestaShop on AWS web server with Cloudways is definitely a wise decision.
If you’re hosting your website directly on the Amazon infrastructure, you will need to be technically proficient to install in the first place, and invest significant time on server and application management.
Alternatively, imagine spending all this time and resources on building a marketable site, running your campaigns and scaling your business towards success. You can achieve all this if you host your online store on Cloudways.
