Tan provides VPS servers in Singapore thru his company SecureAX, but for some reason he is re-sharing the propaganda published by Litespeed Technology claiming that Apache and Nginx are 100x slower than a Openlitespeed server... either Tan was duped by them, or part of their marketing effort, I truly don't know. https://www.expertvm.com/openlitespeed-apache-nginx/ But what I do know is that setting up a cloud VPS servers with Apache or Nginx has the same TTFB as Litespeed (or better) Read More
You know that LiquidWeb is going downhill when their marketing guys like Ronald begin shilling for Litespeed servers, claiming that is "10x faster than Nginx" on their company blog... jesus, really? I remember when LW was like the most cutting edge web host around, like 15 years ago... they could have been a market leading cloud company or anything really, but instead just stayed in Michigan and never updated their approach and are just another cPanel shared hosting company these days. The benchmarks shared by Ronald are fake, they were published by Litespeed company and disabled caching in Nginx to make sure that Litespeed was the winner in the benchmark... pathetic Read More
Why does Valentina try so hard to hide her name and ownership of the ChemiCloud web hosting company, based in Romania? Yet another shady ass hosting provider that is a "partner" with Litespeed Technologies, and ranks some very high ranking blog posts claiming that Litespeed is faster than open source software like Nginx (complete bullshit) and running an anonymous web hosting company. Edit: She is using the fake alias "Michael Thomas" as the owner of CCHosting now, and even on their cPanel expertise certificates: https://chemicloud.com/blog/litespeed-vs-nginx-vs-apache/ They claim blatant propaganda like that Nginx is only good for "Ruby" software, and that it has no server-level caching... they also publish blatantly dishonest benchmarks where they disabled FastCGI caching in Nginx but enabled LS Cache in Litespeed to make it seem 2x faster than Nginx Read More
Johnny is a typical shill for a few Wordpress related brands like Rank Math SEO, Litespeed, and Swift Performance who doesn't actually know anything about computer programming or code development, so he just exchanges affiliate links and quid-pro-quo "endorsements" with other like-minded scammers. He didn't like that my company released 50+ free WordPress plugins (and the SlickStack script) for Nginx servers because Litespeed apparently performs worse than Nginx... so he started trolling my posts on Facebook groups saying I'm racist for having exposed all the fraud and spyware (and even a death threat) that Rank Math SEO was engaged in. More here: https://www.littlebizzy.com/directory/johnny-nguyen Wow: https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/f06vse/litespeed_servers_seem_like_a_marketing_scam_are/ Just when you thought whiny virtue-signaling might stay out of the open source community, shills like Johnny showed up. It's really sad that your parents survive the Vietnam War and come to America, and then you decide to slander everyone as "racist" that is not helping you gain more affiliate link clicks. Thankfully 99% of Vietnamese refugees don't act like this! Update: Johnny is now leaving anon comments on his own blog claiming that I'm a "neo Nazi" among other smears. He doesn't even have the balls to trash talk a competitor using his real name... just straight to fraud, every time... the funniest part about his blog is that nearly every argument he posts he has previously taken a different or conflicting position on the subject in years past... he's like the Kamala Harris of WordPress Update Aug 2022: Johnny is now partnering with Mark Sea, the crypto scammer from China that I exclusively exposed, to post dozens of comments on WPJohnny and promote trademark infringing websites like slickstack.icu and littlebizzy.co (thankfully, the web hosts shut them down after I alerted them). Johnny has lost already a dozen "positive" reviews on various blogs after my aggressive exposure of his fraudulent marketing, fraudulent "VPS hosting", and calling anyone "racist" who criticizes his Litespeed / Rank Math SEO shill gang... but he's too stupid to stop. https://hucksters.net/person/mark-sea ...after years of fraudulent reviews and spam, the WordPress community now sees thru the Litespeed / Rank Math scams, and Nginx and open source software are seeing a big resurgence in popularity (thankfully). Johnny is also now impersonating me in his blog comments, using @littlebizzy.com email addresses... I asked him to stop, but he refused. Update May 2023: Johnny is now trying to stealth change his branding to "BlaqPanel" after "JohnnyVPS" got exposed as shill junk Read More
