Open for business

Ecommerce sales are rising exponentially year after year, and online retailers can’t afford the time to be worrying about the backend operations and performance of their online storefronts. Understanding the challenges and pains retailers face, PEER 1 Hosting partnered with Magento to bring our customers a best-in-class eCommerce hosting solution.

Customers can now benefit from a faster, more secure Magento site with built in redundancies.  So retailers can focus on growing their online business – not worrying about hosting.
