FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is SiteGround faster?
Both run NVMe. SiteGround uses Google Cloud edges; we run on LiteSpeed with our own edge cache. In EU benchmarks we are similar — differences within 50ms.
What about SiteGround's SG Optimizer plugin?
We have server-level LiteSpeed cache that works without a plugin. Faster and no vendor lock-in.
