SmartWoo
Build your store into a success
Fully managed WooCommerce hosting: powerful server resources, automatic Smart Updates, and speed that shows directly in your conversion rate.
CPU resources for your store
More than fast WooCommerce hosting
It is a fully managed WooCommerce solution
Control Panel
Centralized login and user permissions
As a designer, you can see all your clients' subscriptions in the Hostaan control panel and log in to all services with a single account. As a customer, you can define who has access to your services.
Plesk
Versatile Plesk control panel
The Plesk server software running on our servers integrates seamlessly with our control panel. Through Plesk you log in to WordPress, manage your emails and backups.
Hostaan Plugin
Hostaan WordPress plugin
Every WordPress installation on our servers includes the Hostaan plugin, which optimises site settings for compatibility with our server platform and maximises speed.
Smart Updates
Automatic, tested updates
Smart Updates clones your site, tests new WordPress, theme and plugin updates in a separate environment, and only deploys them once everything works. Included with SmartWP and SmartWoo plans.
Nginx caching
Super-fast caching technologies
Hostaan servers use Nginx caching technology, which caches requests at the server level. Combined with the Hostaan plugin's frontend and backend caching and image compression, this makes WordPress lightning fast.
Cloud-based servers
Super-fast, stable and European
Hostaan services are built on fault-tolerant cloud infrastructure from UpCloud and Hetzner, with servers located in Europe. All data is stored in Europe.
Continuously monitored
We anticipate and react
Hostaan services are not just fast - they work with extreme stability. We monitor operations 24/7 and react to potential issues, often before they have time to become problems.
Webmail
Roundcube and SoGo webmail
Read and send your email straight from the browser - no installation needed. Choose whichever of our two webmail apps suits you best, Roundcube or SoGo. Of course, POP3/IMAP/SMTP protocols are also supported.
Statistics
Real-time visitor statistics
Every one of our hosting plans includes modern GoAccess visitor statistics by default - see your traffic, top pages and visitor sources in real time.
And the most important

In their own words
This is how our customers describe our service
Highlights from our Google and Facebook reviews. See directly what people say about us.
Hostaan's customer service/support is excellent. Answers always come very quickly and are clear. As a customer I feel a sense of security and trust, and I don't have to worry about these things.
Google review
Excellent company! Our sites' response and loading speed improved, at best, from 20 seconds down to 3 seconds. Customer service is excellent. They respond quickly. They proactively suggest improvements to the site. The web hosting packages we got also had double the storage space compared to our previous plan, while the price stayed the same. With SSL encryption included as standard too, we got significantly better value for about 20-30% less. Before switching providers, take a snapshot of your WordPress site with the All-in-One WP Migration plugin. Their own instructions say to do this, but I didn't do it for our first site, and restoring from backups didn't work - it ended up being manual work. For the other two sites, the migration went excellently. I recommend them with all my heart - Tommi Kokonaho
Google review
An absolute favorite among all domain and web hosting providers. Fast, knowledgeable and friendly customer service, where the help genuinely doesn't stop at the basic level - you get answers, help and recommendations for anything related to websites. The servers run fast and reliably, and the price-to-quality ratio is excellent both for individual web hosting accounts and for the larger solutions built for agencies. I currently have over 50 clients' websites on Hostaan, and I see no reason to recommend any other company than Hostaan when someone asks where to get a domain and/or web hosting.
Facebook review
In my opinion the best hosting service in Finland. I've tried several different providers, but things work best with Hostaan. Super-fast and friendly customer service.
Google review
Very good and fast customer service. Answers to email questions arrive within a couple of hours. The service is also flexible - things can be negotiated.
Google review
Fantastic customer support! I've always gotten help, explained in an understandable way. And if I still couldn't do something myself, they've helped me "hand in hand." I can warmly recommend it even as a beginner's web host!
