Why OVHcloud Choose the SSD for our Hosting Solution?
Lightning-fast load times
Unlike HDD technology, our SSD hosting features no physical mechanisms, instead deploying low-latency, super-fast flash memory with built-in caching. That means super-quick read/write speeds, leading to dramatically faster website load times.
Improved site performance
Because of SSD hosting’s superior speed, you can supercharge your website’s performance with phenomenal data reading and writing rates that effortlessly handle large volumes of traffic. This level of performance also improves user experiences and secures higher search engine rankings.
Boost Your Site’s Performance with SSD Hosting
SEO benefits of SSD hosting
Drive your website up search engine rankings as SSD web hosting is designed to meet the SEO demands of search engine algorithms. Faster loading times coupled with more responsive websites are officially recognised by search engines as big pluses for user experiences. Now factor in the greater reliability of SSD and its enhanced website security – with full erase and encryption features – and you have a hosting solution that can take your SEO strategy to the next level.
How SSD hosting improves user experience
Let your users enjoy a frustration-free site experience with quicker loading times and super responsive navigation. Compared to HDD, SSD’s greater reliability also reduces the risk of high bounce rates while increasing session durations. Combined, OVHcloud’s SSD web hosting encourages your users to engage and spend more time with your business.
Why SSD hosting is essential for e-commerce sites
Optimise the buying journey for your consumers so they are more likely to transition from browsing your products to hitting that ‘Buy Now’ button. SSD hosting allows your website to load image-rich product pages more quickly, offer lag-free navigation and provide reassuring security features to boost consumer trust in your brand. Our SSD web hosting drives up engagement rates too, leading to increased sales volumes, improved customer loyalty – and bigger revenues for your business.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is ‘web hosting’?
Creating a website produces a range of different files – think HTML, images, and more – all of which must be stored on an internet-connected server and managed continuously to ensure your site works. A provider who offers premium web hosting will take on the storage and management of all these assets – and deliver other benefits too.
For instance, OVHcloud offers managed hosting, anti-DDoS protection, detailed statistics/logs, backup processes, and much more. Our aim? To make your working day more productive and less stressful.
What is SSD web hosting?
Like web hosting, our SSD hosting solution stores and manages the infrastructure of your website on a SSD-based server. SSD writes and reads data more quickly, offers greater reliability as the tech has no moving parts, and boosts user experiences because there is zero lag when users navigate your site.
Do I need SSD hosting for my website?
You don’t need SSD – after all, HDD hosting works well. However, if you want a competitively priced hosting solution that offers great performance, improved user experiences, better reliability, deeper security plus a host of other features, then SSD hosting is the best option for website optimisation.
HDD vs. SSD – What ‘no moving parts’ actually means
It’s like electric vehicles versus ICE vehicles. HDDs are the equivalent of ICE as they have moving parts; a mechanical arm fitted with a head that moves across a spinning storage platter, reading and writing data to it. It means there’s more chance of hardware failure.
SSD is the equivalent of an EV; the latter has fewer moving parts than ICE so there is less chance of failure. In fact, SSD is even better as the technology features no moving parts at all. Instead it uses solid state memory, which is faster and more robust than HDD, and has a longer lifespan. If you want the ultimate in reliability and speed, SSD web hosting is the best choice for your site’s deployment, storage, management and longevity.
Are your SSD hosting plans suitable for my startup business?
Yes – because a new business is all about making a great impression on your customers whenever they visit your website. SDD web hosting offers quick loading times coupled with great performance. Crucially, as your business grows, we can also scale our SSD hosting solution so your ever-evolving needs are always met – and your customers will never experience any lag, no matter how much website traffic you experience.
