There’s web hosting, and there’s Magento Hosting – it’s important to know the difference! Although Magento is a great piece of software, it is difficult to install and you need to have your server setup just right, otherwise you will have a few (or more) problems when it comes to getting it started. We have tried and tested a number of hosting companies, and these are the best ones!
A2 Web Hosting
We weren’t supposed to tell you this, however if you try the coupon code “a2hostoff10″ over at A2 Hosting, (depending on whether they find out I’m posting this!) you’ll get 10% off anything you buy! Anyway, A2 are great for Magento Hosting. These guys boast a 99.9% uptime guarantee, 24/7 support, and they will install the platform for you. They’re very competitively priced and are quite a major player now when it comes to Magento Hosting…

IX Web Hosting
Next up, IX Web Hosting are fantastic! Most people who are au fait with SEO will be choosing Magento because they know how good it is for it. Well, to further impress you, the Magento specialists IX also offer over $450 of free marketing tools, including a $50 Google Adwords voucher and $50 Yahoo Search Marketing voucher if you sign up. I think it’ll only worth through the link above though – but give them a go, because their servers are VERY fast (you can tell this by the non-buffering multimedia video on their home page).
