Do I need special hosting for an online store?
You need hosting with solid database performance and SSL support, both included in miHosting's professional shared hosting, suitable for stores in the launch and growth phase.
Which online store platform should I start with?
It depends on your catalog: for medium-sized catalogs and the need for many modules, PrestaShop or OpenCart are common choices; for very large catalogs, Magento offers more capacity at the cost of more complexity.
