Why Host Yclas on HostPapa
Officially Tested and Recommended by Yclas
The Yclas team maintains a public list of hosting providers that meet its requirements, and HostPapa is on it. That means every Yclas release is compatible out of the box on our servers, so you avoid the PHP version mismatches and missing extensions that often break self-hosted installs.

All HostPapa shared and business plans run on NVMe solid-state storage, support Hypertext Transfer Protocol version 2 (HTTP/2), include Cloudflare CDN integration, and feature server-level caching. Listings load fast, image-heavy galleries stay snappy, and search results return quickly even as your Yclas catalog grows.
Free SSL, CDN, and Imunify360 Security
Every plan ships with a Free Let's Encrypt SSL certificate, CloudLinux isolation, and Imunify360 with Application Programming Interface (API) driven malware scanning. Yclas sites handle payments and user accounts, so this layered protection matters from day one.
