Your website just got faster!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Extensive optimizations have been made to our web servers that have improved HTTP\/2 performance by over 500%!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In benchmarks taken from http2benchmark.org, a WordPress site using our LiteSpeed Cache plugin loads up to 78X faster than a WordPress site running on the open source Apache web server with the W3TotalCache plugin enabled (a popular configuration with most other hosting companies).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you switched your website from HTTP to HTTPS yet? Put this to the top of your list to resolve “Not Secure” browser warnings and to reap these amazing performance improvements!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
