Companies Using SpeedyCache

SpeedyCache is one of the youngest plugins I looked at in our October 2026 Caching data, and it behaves like one. A domain counts when its pages load files from SpeedyCache's cache folder, send its x-speedycache-source header or run its lazy-load script. After removing 704 dead and placeholder domains, that gives 13,618 live domains, 7,629 matched to a company, 7th of 12 in Caching. SpeedyCache comes from Softaculous, whose auto-installer puts WordPress and 380+ other apps onto hosting accounts through cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin and other control panels. Softaculous announced SpeedyCache 1.0.0 on its forum on 3 February 2023. That parentage shapes the whole list.

A hosting-shaped customer base

I resolved every domain and mapped it to its network. 1,803 (13.24%) point at IP ranges registered to HostGator, Unified Layer and Newfold Digital. Namecheap's network has 587 (4.31%), OVH 402 and Hetzner 395, and Cloudflare hides the origin of 1,730. No single account controls these sites; each one runs its own copy of the plugin. But the hosts matter. In Brazil, SpeedyCache's second country, 440 of the 862 .br domains resolve to the HostGator and Newfold ranges.

Unfinished installs were the other tell. Before cleaning, 0.45% of SpeedyCache domains still carried WordPress's default "My Blog" title, against 0.07% for W3 Total Cache and 0.01% for NitroPack, and 1.26% showed a coming-soon or maintenance page, against 0.25% and 0.06%. I can't prove Softaculous's installer adds SpeedyCache by default, but SpeedyCache's sites were unfinished far more often than other caching plugins' sites.

"SpeedyCache spreads the way hosting software spreads: before we cleaned the list, default 'My Blog' titles turned up on its sites about six times as often as on W3 Total Cache's." - Mehmet Suleyman, CEO & Co-founder at TechnologyChecker.io

Sales signal: SpeedyCache often arrives through the host's Softaculous installer rather than an owner's own search. Hosting brands and their reseller channels are a better route to these sites than the plugin itself.

What we removed, and why it matters

When I checked every domain, 704 were not working sites: most no longer resolved (396 in my check), and the rest showed a maintenance, coming-soon, error or suspended page. That's about one domain in twenty, against 1.63% on W3 Total Cache and 1.22% on NitroPack in the same check, so we removed them and every figure on this page uses the remaining 13,618. Earlier monthly counts included those domains, which is why the chart starts in October. Churn is still real: since 16 March 2026, 3,244 domains have dropped SpeedyCache from at least one hostname.

Sales signal: even after cleaning, re-check that a SpeedyCache site loads before it goes into a sequence. This base turns over faster than its neighbours.

Young, small and global

68.67% of matched companies with a known size have 1 to 10 employees and 90.17% have 50 or fewer. Only 34 have more than 1,000. 28.5% were founded in the 2020s, against 8.21% for W3 Total Cache and 14.46% for NitroPack. The United States leads with 1,064 matched companies, then Brazil (730), the United Kingdom (458), India (418) and South Africa (344). Portugal (187), Chile (153) and Mexico (152) are in the top twelve too. IT Services and IT Consulting (5.64%) and Business Consulting and Services (5.26%) are the largest industries, and no industry reaches 6%.

Sales signal: SpeedyCache is a map of new small businesses on budget hosting, many in Portuguese- and Spanish-speaking markets. Localised website, SEO and bookkeeping offers fit this list better than enterprise software.

The named companies

The larger names are regional firms: Rastelli's, the New Jersey meat supplier, Ventisqueros, the Chilean salmon producer, Supermercados Chama and HTB Engenharia in Brazil, ETON Properties in the Philippines and Aparna Enterprises in India. Pensacola Christian College runs it on its news site. I found no SpeedyCache customer page to check these against, so every name here comes from loading the site.

Sales signal: there's no enterprise tail to work. Treat the top of this list as mid-market regional accounts.

Overlap and one small switch

1,518 SpeedyCache domains also run LiteSpeed Cache today, out of 2,651 ever seen with both, and the LiteSpeed web server answers for 35.5% of SpeedyCache domains. That's two page caches on one site, often because the host's server adds its own. 136 domains also run WP Rocket. The only switching row that passes our tests is small: 12 domains moved from NitroPack to SpeedyCache, 9 of them in the last 90 days.

"The only clean switching row we see for SpeedyCache runs from NitroPack, a service priced by pageviews, to a free plugin. Twelve domains isn't a trend, but the direction makes sense." - Mehmet Suleyman, CEO & Co-founder at TechnologyChecker.io

Sales signal: the 1,518 domains running SpeedyCache and LiteSpeed Cache together are a configuration clean-up waiting to happen, a fair opening for a WordPress care service.

The stack around it

Elementor runs on 46.01% of SpeedyCache domains, against 29.27% for NitroPack and 17.74% for W3 Total Cache. Cloudflare fronts 15.74%. Among named hosts, Hostgator leads at 5.66%, then Hostinger (2.3%) and Bluehost (1.68%). Some sites also run SitePad, Softaculous's own site builder: 77 did before cleaning.

Sales signal: the typical SpeedyCache site is an Elementor build on cPanel shared hosting. Elementor add-on sellers and template shops reach the same owners.

What reviewers say

On WordPress.org, SpeedyCache has 30 ratings, 24 of them five-star, against 500,000+ active installations listed there. That's a tiny review base for the install count, which fits a plugin people receive rather than seek out. SpeedyCache's pricing page lists Pro at $39 a year for one site, $89 for five and $249 for unlimited own sites (checked 16 October 2026).

Sales signal: owners who got SpeedyCache with their host's installer may have little loyalty to it. A host or service that bundles a different cache can replace it without a fight.

Key takeaways

• 13,618 live domains after cleaning, 0.48% of Caching, 7th of 12.
• 13.24% resolve to HostGator and Newfold Digital IP ranges, and before cleaning its sites were unfinished installs far more often than other caching plugins' sites.
• We removed 704 dead or placeholder domains, several times the rate on W3 Total Cache and NitroPack.
• 90.17% of matched companies have 50 or fewer staff and 28.5% were founded in the 2020s.
• 1,518 domains run LiteSpeed Cache beside it.

Sales applications

Outreach: "Your site runs SpeedyCache on [host]. Many sites like yours also have a server cache switched on, so pages get cached twice. We can tidy that up and [your offer]."

Targeting: on TechnologyChecker.io, filter SpeedyCache domains to companies with 11 or more employees in Brazil, India or the United States, then re-check that the site loads before outreach.

Competitive angle: hosts competing with HostGator can pitch SpeedyCache sites directly; a better-configured stack is an easy story when the current one came from an installer.
