For an E-commerce website, a Shared Cloud, Cloud Server or a Dedicated Server would be an optimum solution as all these solutions offers 100% uptime guarantee which is essential for an E-commerce website. It's essential to choose a proper SSL certificate as E-commerce sites accept online payments and it's necessary that the Encryption is perfect.
