Before your shop goes online, it needs a stable home:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Choose the right hosting:<\/strong> Look for a one-click installation or let us handle the complete server setup.<\/li>\n
  • At least 2 GB of RAM<\/strong> and SSD storage ensure fast loading times.<\/li>\n
  • Upon request, we will set up an SSL certificate, daily backups and security updates \u2013 and only charge for the actual working time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    The layout shapes the first impression:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Free themes <\/strong>are suitable for trying out, but often only offer basic functions.<\/li>\n
    • Premium themes<\/strong> (approx. \u20ac50\u2013\u20ac200) offer modern, mobile-optimized designs and regular updates.<\/li>\n
    • Create a child theme to customize colors and layouts without losing changes during updates.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

      Greater range, greater comfort:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • SEO modules <\/strong>generate user-friendly URLs and automatically create meta tags.<\/li>\n
      • Payment providers<\/strong> such as Stripe, PayPal and local favorites (Klarna, Sofort\u00fcberweisung) keep the shopping cart running.<\/li>\n
      • Marketplace integrations <\/strong>for Amazon, eBay or Otto make it easier to sell on multiple platforms.<\/li>\n
      • Everything from one source?<\/strong> Contact us, and we will professionally set up your PrestaShop store.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Slow websites cost customers:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • Enable caching <\/strong>so that returning visitors can see your pages in a flash.<\/li>\n
        • Compress images<\/strong> for faster downloads.<\/li>\n
        • CDN usage <\/strong>brings content from servers located near you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          We conduct a brief performance check, implement the necessary optimizations, and only charge you for the minutes we actually work.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

            Trust creates sales:<\/p>\n

              \n
            • SSL encryption <\/strong>for all pages \u2013 absolutely essential, especially during checkout.<\/li>\n
            • Regular updates<\/strong> to PrestaShop and extensions close security gaps.<\/li>\n
            • Daily backups <\/strong>with 1-click recovery protect against data loss.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              Our German-speaking virtual assistants are happy to take over routine tasks such as product maintenance or price changes, so that your shop always stays up-to-date.<\/p>\n
