For standard websites: We use Webflow’s cloud-based hosting, powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS)—the same infrastructure trusted by Fortune 500 companies. Your site is delivered through a global Content Delivery Network (CDN), ensuring fast load times anywhere in the world. With built-in SSL security, automatic backups, and 99.99% uptime, Webflow hosting keeps your site safe, fast, and always online without the need for plugins or manual updates.

Ecommerce websites: We build and maintain all ecommerce websites using Shopify. However, we do not offer a hosting package for Shopify sites, as Shopify requires store owners to host and manage billing through their own Shopify account. That said, we offer ongoing maintenance packages to support your Shopify site with content updates, product listings, and design changes. Shopify hosting comes with Unlimited bandwidth and fast global CDN, SSL certificate for secure transactions, 99.99% uptime and more.

No, you’re welcome to handle your own hosting. If you’d rather manage billing and technical maintenance yourself, we’ll transfer your site to your personal Webflow account once your project is complete. From there, you’ll be responsible for maintaining your domain and managing any updates or settings.

No, we only host websites that we design, build and maintain.

For standard, non-ecommerce sites on a Stellar Lume Studio web hosting plan, we'll need your assistance to set up or transfer your domain (the website URL). After that, we will handle everything else.

For ecommerce websites, we'll need your assistance to set up or transfer your domain (the website URL), then we will transfer the site to your own Shopify account after launch where you will manage billing and hosting directly.

No. All sites hosted by Stellar Lume Studio require a maintencace plan but all sites maintained by Stellar Lume Studio do not require a hosting plan. If you choose to host your site yourself after we launch your site, you can subscribe to a standalone website maintenance plan and we can mantain your site on you own account - you'll just have to handle all of the billing and tech tasks associated with hosting.

Webflow offers several hosting tiers based on your website’s features and functionality:

Basic Hosting – Great for simple, static websites without CMS features.

CMS Hosting – Ideal for blogs, portfolios, or any site that needs dynamic content (like blog posts or team profiles).

Ecommerce Hosting – Designed for online stores and businesses selling products directly through their site.

At Stellar Lume Studio, we’ll help you select the right plan based on your site’s needs. You can view or upgrade your plan anytime as your business grows.

If you’re on a Stellar Lume Studio hosting plan, we’ll notify you if there’s a billing issue. If the account is canceled or payment lapses, your site will be unpublished until hosting is restored. You’ll always have access to your design files, and we’re happy to help you migrate if needed.
