English Version: What is OpenLiteSpeed?

OpenLiteSpeed is a fast, open-source web server built for performance, low overhead, and easy WordPress deployment. If you want a lightweight stack for a small VPS, OpenLiteSpeed is a strong option for speed testing, WordPress hosting, and caching with LSCache.

Why use it for WordPress?

OpenLiteSpeed delivers fast response times with low server overhead, provides an easy WebAdmin GUI for management, offers native support for LiteSpeed Cache, and makes a good fit for small VPS hosting environments where resources are limited but performance matters.

Install OpenLiteSpeed on Ubuntu

SSH into your VPS.
Update packages:
```
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
```

Add the LiteSpeed repository:

sudo wget -O - https://repo.litespeed.sh | sudo bash

Install OpenLiteSpeed:
```
sudo apt install openlitespeed -y
```

Install PHP 8.4 packages:

sudo apt install lsphp84 lsphp84-common lsphp84-mysql lsphp84-curl lsphp84-opcache -y

Access the admin panel

Open the WebAdmin console:

https://your-server-ip:7080

If needed, reset the admin password:

sudo /usr/local/lsws/admin/misc/admpass.sh

Configure WordPress

Create a virtual host, point it to your WordPress directory, and set up PHP handling. For a fresh install, the easiest path is to install WordPress inside the OLS virtual host document root.

Enable cache and performance tuning

Install the LiteSpeed Cache plugin in WordPress and enable optimization settings. The key areas to tune include page cache for storing full-page output, CSS and JavaScript minification to reduce file sizes, image optimization for faster loading visuals, browser cache leverage for returning visitors, object cache for database query results, and QUIC.cloud CDN integration for global content delivery and additional optimization features. Install the LiteSpeed Cache plugin in WordPress and enable optimization settings.

Image Optimization with EWWW Image Optimizer

EWWW Image Optimizer is a popular WordPress plugin that automatically compresses and optimizes images uploaded to your site. It reduces file sizes without visible quality loss, improving page load speeds and Core Web Vitals.

Important: EWWW Image Optimizer does not come bundled with OpenLiteSpeed or LiteSpeed Cache. It is a separate third-party plugin that you must install from the WordPress plugin repository. However, it works excellently alongside LiteSpeed Cache — LSCache handles page caching and CSS/JS optimization, while EWWW handles image compression. You can use both together for maximum performance.

QUIC.cloud CDN Integration

QUIC.cloud is a Content Delivery Network (CDN) service developed by LiteSpeed Technologies. It provides:

Global edge caching for dynamic and static content
HTTP/3 and QUIC protocol support for faster connections
Automatic image optimization and WebP conversion
DDoS protection and security features
Integration with LiteSpeed Cache plugin for seamless cache purging

Important: QUIC.cloud is not bundled with OpenLiteSpeed by default. It is a separate cloud service (free tier available) that integrates natively with the LiteSpeed Cache plugin for WordPress. To use it, you need to:

Install the LiteSpeed Cache plugin
Register a free QUIC.cloud account
Link your domain in the LSCache plugin settings
Enable CDN and optimization features

Add SSL

Use Certbot for HTTPS and then update the listener and virtual host settings in WebAdmin.

Example:

sudo apt install certbot -y
sudo certbot certonly --webroot -w /var/www/html -d example.com -d www.example.com

Check if cache is working

In your browser dev tools, look for headers like:

X-LiteSpeed-Cache: hit
X-LiteSpeed-Cache: miss

Takeaways

OpenLiteSpeed is a strong option for WordPress on a small VPS when you want speed, simplicity, low memory usage, and easy cache integration all in one lightweight package.
