LiteSpeed Enterprise is the fastest web server for WordPress and PHP workloads. We run it on dedicated bare-metal hardware -- not shared cloud -- with full server-level caching, HTTP/3, and QUIC support included on every plan.
View PlansLiteSpeed processes PHP requests faster than Apache and handles more concurrent connections than Nginx with lower memory overhead. For WordPress -- which is PHP-heavy and database-intensive -- this translates directly into faster response times and better performance under load. LiteSpeed's PHP handler (LSAPI) processes requests 2-3× faster than Apache's mod_php and consistently outperforms PHP-FPM in benchmark comparisons for WordPress workloads.
Most WordPress caching solutions operate as PHP plugins -- they're fast, but they still require PHP to run. LiteSpeed Cache operates at the web server level. When serving a cached page, LiteSpeed bypasses PHP and MySQL entirely, serving static HTML at the speed of a file read. For high-traffic pages, this is the maximum possible caching performance. WP Pro Host includes LiteSpeed Cache configuration on every account.
LiteSpeed Enterprise supports HTTP/3 and QUIC -- the latest transport protocol that significantly reduces latency, particularly on mobile and higher-latency connections. While most shared hosts are still on HTTP/2, WP Pro Host serves sites over HTTP/3 by default. For UK businesses with a significant mobile audience, this is a measurable performance advantage.
QUIC.cloud is a CDN purpose-built for LiteSpeed. Unlike generic CDNs that don't understand WordPress cache invalidation, QUIC.cloud knows when a post is published, a product changes, or a page is updated -- and flushes only the relevant cached content. It's included on every WP Pro Host plan at no extra cost.
Other hosts run LiteSpeed on shared cloud infrastructure, where your CPU and RAM compete with other customers. WP Pro Host runs LiteSpeed Enterprise on dedicated Ryzen 9 7950X3D hardware -- so you get LiteSpeed's performance advantage without shared-hosting contention. The combination is the fastest possible WordPress stack.

Security
Two layers of active protection — server-level and CDN — built in as standard. Not an add-on, not an upgrade.
Enterprise DDoS Protection
Dual-layer defence — our CDN absorbs volumetric attacks at the network edge; server-level protection blocks application-layer threats before they reach WordPress.
Web Application Firewall
Active WAF at both CDN and server level. Blocks SQL injection, XSS, and malicious request patterns automatically, with continuously updated rules.
Real-Time Malware Scanning
Continuous server-wide scanning detects infections the moment they occur. Automatic cleanup included — no extra charge, no waiting for a ticket.
Automated WordPress Hardening
Security settings are enforced automatically across every site: file permissions, wp-config.php lockdown, PHP execution blocked in uploads, XML-RPC disabled, and admin rate limiting — all kept in sync without manual intervention.
Login & Brute Force Protection
Server-level rate limiting on wp-login, automatic IP blocking on repeated failures, and CAPTCHA enforcement. Offending IPs are blocked before they slow your site.
Container Isolation (Enhance CP)
Every site runs in an isolated container. A compromised site cannot affect neighbouring accounts — no shared PHP processes, no shared filesystem access between customers.
IP Reputation & Country Blocking
Continuously updated threat intelligence blocks known malicious IPs at the server level. Country-level restrictions available where appropriate.
Vulnerability Scanning & Patching
Weekly scans across all WordPress installations identify vulnerable plugins, themes, and core files. Bulk update tools apply patches server-wide automatically.
Uptime & Keyword Monitoring
Real-time uptime monitoring with keyword checks — we know if your site goes down or serves unexpected content before your customers do.
All security features included on every plan — no add-ons, no upgrades required.
