The Managed WooCommerce Shop experience with SaaS Web

1 free SSL certificate per project
The communication between the customers computer and the web server needs to be encrypted as it transmits sensitive/personal data. SaaS Web offers a certificate for one domain (with and without www prefix). On demand, an other type certificate or existing one that you already own can be set up.
Current version preinstalled
SaaS Web uses the newest package available directly from the community. You have all standard functionality at disposal with no constraint. You obtain an admin access and can manipulate WordPress as you wish.
Multisite setup on request
Multisite is often used as plugin alternative for multilang sites; WordPress multisite enables you to run multiple sites as subdomains or subfolders. Whereas multilang plugins are mostly with costs, multisite is a free core functionality of WordPress.
Performance optimisation
In order to boost the page loading speed, we propose to use minifying and caching functionality. The result is a benefit for your visitors and also for search engines who will rank your site better.
Free staging environment during store setup

Core, plugins and theme updates
SaaS Web uses monitoring software but also keeps informed via mailing lists, community memberships and personal contacts in order to update the systems and applications on time. Some updates are automatic, others are manual, all manipulation is monitored and safe, so that a broken update can be reverted directly without further consequences.
Free VPN secured admin area
For obvious security reasons, SaaS Web proposes to use a VPN access to manage your website. SaaS Web sets up a single access for free, if you need other accounts, they will be charged. After activation, it will not possible to access the admin backend without the VPN. This is a “natural” way for preventing brute force attacks as the backend is not accessible anymore from the Internet.

Detailed information about WooCommerce Shop
WordPress is the most popular CMS on the planet. With one free plugin (WooCommerce), it can be extended to a full featured online store.
Large selection of themes
There are many free (freemium) themes that can be browsed directly from the WordPress backend. On top of this there are various commercial market places to find the desired website layout. If you want a high quality custom theme, you can ask SaaS Web for a quote.
Extend your website with plugins
The large choice of plugins is probably one of the reasons to choose WordPress. There is a plugin for almost whatever feature you think of. You can find form builder plugins, galleries, multilang plugins, and many more. SaaS Web has licenced a couple commercial plugins such as WPML and Gravity Forms and allow you to use the licence for your site.
Create multiple sites with once running instance
Once activated, it is possible to create multiple sites with the same WordPress core. This feature is mostly interesting for community sites or large multilang sites as an alternative to multilang plugins - quite interesting side effect using multisite is that each site can have its own users.
Easy media integration
With WordPress, the media management is very easy and intuitive. Online videos can be added as easily as to copy and paste the link into the visual editor.
Simple user management
The small and straight user management allow an efficient collaborative work, especially for small and medium sized teams. The permissions are separated into 5 roles, starting with the subscriber who has no capabilities other than editing his own profile. The contributor, the author and the editor have capabilities on writing articles and pages, editing their own or the content of others, publishing etc. The administrator is the one with all possible capabilities and access to all WordPress configuration.
Builtin search engine optimisation (SEO)
WordPress was born as a blog application where the attention to link building and content indexing was and is still high. How good the site will be optimised regarding SEO depends on the theme and the plugins which are used.
