The Best LiteSpeed Hosting Provider in South Africa

As a top-tier web server software, LiteSpeed Web Server is used by millions of people throughout the world. Some rankings place this server at number four among the most popular and frequently used web servers available right now. LiteSpeed Web Server (LSWS) was introduced in 2003 as a product of LiteSpeed Technologies.

LSWS is an exclusive web hosting programme that is both lightweight and efficient, saving both hardware and software resources while maintaining a high level of server safety. It is a widely used web server in South Africa because of the superior scalability, security, and load balancing it provides. It also has per-IP connection and bandwidth throttling features, as well as built-in anti-DDoS protection.

Why you should use the Lite Speed Web Server

It is fast

Accelerating the speed of the code base has been a top priority. This expedites the process of connecting to the web and has been shown to increase the number of paid search results, the amount of time spent on social networking sites (such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram), and the frequency with which a site is revisited.

It is secure

To prevent unauthorised changes to your website's files, the LiteSpeed web server employs a secure memory cache and checks for file integrity constantly. This safeguards your site from intruders who may attempt to steal data or alter its behaviour.

With LiteSpeed, you can run your business without worrying about hackers or viruses because the web server was developed with security as a top priority. Businesses who make money solely through their website should pay extra attention to this.

It is affordable

Saving money on both setup and monthly LiteSpeed web hosting fees, this web server is a great alternative to more expensive shared hosting plans. For most small businesses, this means they can finally establish a digital presence without breaking the bank.

It is stable and reliable

Expect a service with a 99.9% uptime rate and extreme speed. No matter how many visitors you get, your website will never go down.

It is flexible and easy to use

LiteSpeed's compatibility with both Windows and Linux hosting platforms makes it an attractive option for a wide range of organisations.

Changes to your server's configuration or source code may be made on the fly with LiteSpeed's mobile-friendly hosting platform, which requires no specialised knowledge.

It is constantly maintained

To keep up with the ever-changing needs of its users, LiteSpeed is actively maintained. Modern technologies are fully supported. In addition, LiteSpeed has certain advantages over the obsolete Cachwall. LiteSpeed's asynchronous architecture is a key factor in the server's high performance. Because of this, it can adapt better to situations with multiple users connecting at once and heavy traffic.

Other features to consider

Drop-in replacement for Apache

LiteSpeed Web Server works with the widely-used Apache web server and its extensions including mod rewrite,.htaccess, and mod security. The Apache configuration files can be loaded into LiteSpeed Web Server, making it a drop-in replacement for Apache. Additionally, it works with industry standard hosting management interfaces including cPanel, Plesk, and DirectAdmin.

HTTP/3 Support

LiteSpeed Web Server is the only production-grade web server that implements HTTP/3 reliably. Right now, LiteSpeed is the only web server that can serve sites over HTTP/3. This is important for developers and agencies that want to be on the cutting edge.

Because of how it works and how it's built, it provides substantial gains right out of the box. The SSL handshake, the most resource-intensive part of an SSL session, can also be offloaded. By using LiteSpeed, you can reduce the amount of time it takes for people to access your website securely over HTTPS.

LiteSpeed Cache (LSCashe)

LiteSpeed's in-built LSCache technology accelerates dynamic content quickly and efficiently. Using a combination of page caching and timed deletions, it may rid your system of unwanted URLs. LSCache additionally provides independent caching for conventional computer and mobile device displays.

Turning on LSCache is like turning on a switch that instantly makes your website much faster. You can find compatible plugins for the vast majority of CMS systems out there.

LSCache for WordPress

More than a million WordPress sites currently use the popular caching plugin LSCache for WordPress. It is a comprehensive plugin for accelerating your site, and its main feature is the server-level caching functionality of LiteSpeed Web Server. By reducing the number of components in the server stack, this cache enables more rapid and effective content delivery.

Built-in PageSpeed optimisation, an image optimisation service, a crucial CSS generating service, and the ability to integrate a third-party CDN are just some of the capabilities added by the LSCache plugin. In addition to enhancing the user experience on each of your sites, this plugin enables individualised WooCommerce caching and a highly adjustable cache crawler.

Frequently asked questions

Which is better: LiteSpeed or Apache?

The Apache technology on which LiteSpeed is built has allowed it to become far more efficient than its predecessor; this is especially true for HTTP/3 content. Sites built with WordPress, Joomla, and other content management systems have also gotten a lot faster and have more security features available. Apache has one advantage over LSWS, which is that it is free while LSWS requires a paid licence.

Is LiteSpeed free?

Although LSWS is a commercial server option, you can still get the advantages of its enhanced functionality without having to shell out any cash. OpenLiteSpeed is LiteSpeed's free and open-source alternative, offering the same high performance and many configuration options.

What's the quality of LiteSpeed server?

When it comes to delivering static material, LiteSpeed is unrivalled. Because of its own unique LSAPI implementation, PHP runs faster. If you run a popular WordPress site on a virtual private server, LiteSpeed can greatly improve your site's performance.

Which caching plugin performs better, LiteSpeed or WP Rocket?

When compared to WP Rocket's file-based caching, LiteSpeed Cache's server-level caching is much more efficient. Since PHP processing is handled by LSAPI, it is much quicker than PHP-FPM and other PHP implementations. Server-level caching is only used by a small percentage of cache plugins.

How to install LiteSpeed on cPanel?

LiteSpeed can easily be installed on cPanel as a drop-in-replacement for Apache. Users report that website pages load up to 4x times faster using LiteSpeed webserver.

Does LiteSpeed make PHP faster?

LiteSpeed will drasticly improve the time it takes to parse and render pages that use PHP. Server response time is important for SEO as well as vistor retention.

What is the difference between LiteSpeed vs Nginx vs Apache?
