LiteSpeed Shared Web Hosting at Just $2.50/Month

If you’ve been looking for litespeed shared web hosting for WordPress, Joomla or Magento web apps, in this post I am going to share my experience with this litespeed shared web hosting platform that has just started offering  litespeed shared web hosting at a nominal of just $2.25 per month with lots of other features that other shared hosting companies offer like unlimited emails, free SSL, one click installer and support.

If you do not know what lightspeed server is, then lightspeed server is an open source server that can deliver page load in just the friction of milliseconds that no other web  service like Apache and NGINX can do yet.

Lightspeed servers can load WordPress pages like the static sites do. This means you can improve your pagespeed score which is very important for  technical SEO since Google  declared web vitals  as a ranking factor which is measured by the Google Chrome browser across the globe. 

I have been using another standard Apache web server on my shared hosting server but I never  got the faster page load that I am getting with the lightspeed server and I am also able to install and configure more applications too.

Show the interface is going to be the same of this lightspeed server as of the standard  shared hosting C panel that I am already used for switching from standard shared hosting to litespeed shared hosting was easy for me and at the same time this company also offered free  migration/transfer support which made my life easy. 

This litespeed shared web hosting plan starts at just $2.50 per month and this is really good for beginner bloggers or small businesses to start with.

This post will help you install WordPress on a Shared Hosting Server using cPanel. I’ll be using to demonstrate the WordPress installation. As you might already know that cPanel is a popular web hosting management GUI based interface that lets you install any CMS like Drupal, Joomla, Magento, PrestaShop, Abanta Shop, Open Real Estate, WordPress and many other PHP based open source scripts and CMSes.

cPanel uses an app installer to install WordPress and it’s called Softaculous.

Set PHP 7.3 version as Default in cPanel

Before you start install WordPress on your web hosting server, make you have selected your recommended PHP version and enabled PHP extensions.

At time of this WordPress installation, php 7.3 version is recommended, I’ll also enable php extensions like pdo_mysql, mysqli.

Adding your domain name to hosting account

Before you hit the install WordPress button, make your domain name available for installing WordPress on it.

To add a domain to your hosting account in cPanel, we use Addon Domains.

Just search for Addon Domain in cPanel and add your domain by validating your domain name.

To validate your domain name, simply copy TXT record value and add it your domain name DNS and save it.

To verify the your domain name, return back your cPanel and click Validate Domain and you are done.

If you face any problem validating your domain name, you can contact Namecheap Support and they’ll verify your username and security PIN and ask for domain name that you want to add.
