Heliohost is REALLY FAST (even with WordPress)

[robertzo]

When I did a speed test with Gtmetix I found out that my website loaded in only 1.2 seconds with a TTFB of 963 milliseconds. That is really fast considering, 1 I did not optimize the speed of my website, 2 I used WordPress, three I have a ton of different posts, and 4 this is a FREE hosting. To compare that a website hosted on a good webserver in Hostinger (a paid shared hosting plan) with nothing on it had also had a loading speed of 1.2 seconds.

 

Thank You Heliohost for this High Quality Hosting.

Now that I installed a WordPress plugin (wp-rocket) the loading time decreased and had a largest contentful loading time of 482 ms and a fully loaded time of 900 ms

As much as we love to hate on WP around here, I have to admit that number is extremely impressive.

 

And yes, when the content on it is set up correctly (and it's tested outside of registration hours since Tommy does often slow down around midnight UTC), a Tommy account can in fact be faster than some paid hosts.

Your account has only used 9.8 GB of memory and 694.6 units of cpu in the last 24 hours. That's not bad at all for a wordpress site.

Follow this tutorial:

 

However Heliohost is moving to Plesk so you may not be able to do this until later.

The good thing now is that plesk comes with nginx caching which will make the site even more faster.

Ofcourse tommy is mor fast than other paid hosts in many ways. We have to thank you for that 🤩
