Deploy PrestaShop (ecommerce website / shopping cart) on VPSie in minutes

This tutorial will show you how to deploy PrestaShop on vpsie using our one-click deployment option and Create your online store with PrestaShop in minutes.

PrestaShop is a free shopping cart software. It allows you to build an e-commerce website for free and start selling online with hundreds of powerful features.

First, let me list some facts to eliminate confusion and unnecessary headaches. Our setup will only work with 1GB of Ram or higher; therefore,e deploying it on the Jerry package will not work.

Having that clear, let’s start the deployment of the PrestaShop using VPSie. First, log in to your VPSie account, head over to the first tab, VPSie, at the bottom of the page, and click the Add New VPSie button.

On the next screen, select Tom package or above.

For the sake of simplicity, we will only select Public IP and choose the ssh key we have previously added to our account (if you don’t like the ssh key, you will have to wait for the email after the vpsie is created to get your password), then select the DC where you want your PrestaShop deployed.
