    Has anyone here switched to LiteSpeed hosting for WordPress? Did you see a real performance difference compared to other web server?

    I switched my WooCommerce store from Apache to LiteSpeed about half a year ago, and honestly, I wish I had done it earlier. The biggest difference I noticed was checkout speed—my cart page and product filtering used to crawl whenever there were 30–40 users online at once. After moving to LiteSpeed hosting, pages load almost instantly, even during peak hours. What surprised me was how much the LSCache plugin simplified things compared to juggling multiple caching and optimization plugins. It feels like everything just works better together.

      I run a photography portfolio site where image loading speed really matters. When I first tested LiteSpeed with QUIC.cloud CDN, I saw a noticeable improvement—images loaded faster globally, not just for visitors close to my server. My Google PageSpeed Insights and Core Web Vitals scores also improved, which I think played a role in a slight SEO bump. For creative sites with lots of visuals, that kind of improvement makes a huge difference in keeping visitors engaged.

        I’ll admit, my first attempt with LiteSpeed wasn’t great. I installed it manually on a VPS, but I struggled to configure everything properly, and the results weren’t much different from Apache. It wasn’t until I moved to a host that offered managed WordPress hosting with LiteSpeed fully integrated that I saw the real benefits. Out of the box, my site’s speed scores jumped, caching worked seamlessly, and I didn’t have to constantly tweak settings. So if you’re considering LiteSpeed, I’d say the host matters as much as the server itself.
