GoDaddy is not the strongest fit for this ecommerce workload
The current response-time indicators are clear, especially TTFB and mobile performance. This affects browsing speed, ads, SEO, and checkout experience.
Dovvo Ecommerce Development Proposal
After reviewing the current website and the attached audit report, the recommendation is to move Dovvo away from the current hosting environment, address performance and security issues, then choose a clear path: fast migration and optimization, a clean WooCommerce rebuild, or fully custom ecommerce development based on operational requirements.
Current Status
The issue is not only design. The technical foundation needs attention.
Cracked WoodMart version and legacy file edits
The non-original theme version and File Manager changes increase security risk and make future maintenance or development unpredictable.
Storage pressure and visible performance issues
Hosting disk usage is close to the limit, Core Web Vitals fails on mobile, and LCP/TTFB are too high for a conversion-driven ecommerce store.
Files, File Manager, and PHP/Config restrictions review
The diagnosis included checking files through File Manager and identifying PHP/Config settings and modifications that affect update paths, plugins, and the ability to edit or recreate parts of the website normally.

Recommended Hosting
Hostinger Cloud Startup supports ecommerce, with clear email limits
The new package is a better starting point than the current hosting setup and supports ecommerce with stronger cloud resources. Pricing appears directly when the preferred subscription link is opened.
- The hosting supports ecommerce websites.
- Only 10 domain email accounts are included in the package.
- Email storage is 1GB per mailbox.
- The current hosting appears to have around 30 email accounts.
- If more emails are needed, an additional email package should be purchased from inside the hosting account.
Scope & Pricing
Three clear options depending on budget and business direction

Payment Gateway Recommendation
Fawaterk is a suitable option for local and international payments
Why Fawaterk?
I recommend Fawaterk as a payment gateway candidate because it provides payment links, invoices, reports, and multiple payment methods such as Visa, MasterCard, Meeza, Fawry, and mobile wallets according to its official platform.
Open FawaterkSuggested Integration Scope
The store payment area will be prepared, then the gateway can be connected after the merchant account and required credentials are provided. A test payment should confirm order creation and payment status updates.
Requirements & Notes
Items to confirm before implementation starts
Original WoodMart Theme
The base theme is WoodMart, and the client should purchase the license under their own account. The current listed cost is USD 59. Remaining plugins, implementation work, and page coordination are handled within the agreed package.
Open WoodMartDesign & References
I will need to work with a Designer from my team to execute the required visual direction professionally. If the client has their own Designer, coordination can happen directly. Before starting, we should receive the target design, a clear reference, or any specific interfaces they need created.
Support & Maintenance
Support is included for the first 3 months after launch. After that, ongoing maintenance or monitoring will follow a separate agreement or a monthly plan.
Unified Email for Activations
It is recommended to prepare one dedicated Gmail account for the project. This account should be used to activate Google Search Console, Google Developer/Cloud, Google Clarity, tracking tools, hosting notifications, and store-related access, so permissions, email delivery, and operational ownership stay in one manageable place.

The rebuild requires 3 weeks after receiving all required materials
