E-Commerce Hosting Stores

Hi,

I was hoping fellow members may be able to offer advice on the best way to deal with E-Commerce and PCI compliance.

In order to create multiple E-Commerce websites for separate clients, each using Paypal Pro, and to be PCI compliant is it prudent to host each store on a separate UK VPS Server or Managed dedicated server, or can multiple stores be hosted on a single server?

Regards
Lee

Good to hear that you want to start E-commerce Hosting business.PayPal pro you can use. According to me Managed dedicated server hosting is the best option.

Hello,

It somewhat depends

Technically speaking, part of PCI Compliance means you shouldn't be sharing the server with other websites. That's a declaration you have to make in the form you fill in prior to the scan.

I'm suite sure most people don't stick to that though, but I'd personally recommend you have a different Cheap VPS for each site. If one of the sites is exploited and data breached, you could find yourself in breach if another sites data was also taken.

Better to be safe than sorry

Good to hear that you are planning to start a E-commerce website and yes for running the website you will be in need of web hosting. See, you will require a hosting plan that will fulfill your requirement. Make sure your website is completely secured from the IP hackers, if not you may be in a problem.

First of all thanks guys for all your valuable suggestions.

One question that is striking again and again that, can I go for a C class IP address for my website as while browsing few websites, I have read that the C class IP will benefit me in SEO.

Hi,

At first determine which type of shopping cart you are planning to use on your e-commerce website.

Most of our Shared Servers have default C Class IP address. So if you need a Shared C Class IP, you can get it at no additional cost. If you need a Dedicated C Class IP address, you will need to pay additional charges for that.

If you plan to interlink multiple websites hosted with same host then you may ask your host to setup websites on Unique C class IPs which will help you to boost unique backlink and help in SEO.
