WP Rocket is a premium caching plugin for WordPress. They claim that WP Rocket makes optimization easy enough for anybody at any level to speed up their website. 10Web is a comprehensive WordPress optimization platform. 10Web's 10Web Booster plugin can immediately improve a site's performance and increase its core web vital score, one of Google’s metrics for page ranking. Let us examine how and where WP Rocket and 10Web compare and where 10Web is at WordPress optimization.
Since its introduction in 2004, WordPress has been and continues to be the top platform for building websites. Its popularity has paved the way for add-ons, plugins, and expert marketplaces that cater to almost any need.
With a rise in popularity and growth of the product comes an increase in complexity. Plugins can help address some of these complexities.
Implementing a caching plugin that optimizes your WordPress website for speed is one of the most significant areas where you can find easy wins. How fast a page loads can influence your website’s ranking in a search engine.
There are endless articles on how to tweak your WordPress site to get the best performance. It could take hours to read, understand and implement just a few improvements like page caching, lazy loading, or minification of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Even after understanding the optimization techniques and Google’s metrics, the Core Web Vitals can be a lot to digest if you are not an experienced web developer.
Time to First Byte (TTFB), Time to Interactive (TTI), First Contentful Paint (FCP), and Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) are all web vital metrics and have their ways to go about improving their score.
Fortunately, plugins and full-service offerings are dedicated to making this as easy as possible for the end user. Two of these offerings are WP Rocket by WP Media and 10Web Booster by 10Web.
WP Rocket is a premium caching plugin for WordPress. They claim that WP Rocket makes optimization easy enough for anybody at any level to speed up their website. They started in 2014 and have risen in popularity, at least partly because of how much is configured for you out of the box.
10Web is a comprehensive WordPress optimization platform. 10Web’s 10Web Booster plugin can immediately improve a site’s performance and increase its core web vital score, one of Google’s metrics for page ranking. 10Web goes beyond the plugin and offers an automated service for hosting your optimized WordPress websites, giving you a total optimized experience.
Let us examine how and where WP Rocket and 10Web compare and where 10Web is at WordPress optimization.
How 10Web compares to WP Rocket in a Nutshell
- 10Web Booster is more effective at optimization. Feature to feature, 10Web Booster, WP Rocket, and many other optimization plugins use standard techniques such as lazy loading, gzip/brotli compression, and minimization of static text such as HTML, CSS, and JS to improve site performance. 10Web also implements advanced techniques such as critical CSS, JS delay, image optimization, and container-specific resizing that others do not. While WP Rocket, being an advanced solution, also has most of these techniques, 10Web is more effective when it comes to implementing them.
- A 90+ Page Score Score Guaranteed. All the advanced techniques (critical CSS, JS Delay, image optimization, container-specific resizing) enable 10Web to get a 90+ page speed score.
- 10Web Booster is more reliable and stable. Sometimes plugins play poorly with each other, and a page or the whole site can break. 10Web Booster implements no-break algorithms to test the optimizations in a sandbox before making them live.
- 10Web Booster has a cleaner, more cohesive interface. Having too many options upfront can lead to a slowdown in implementation while you try to make sense of it all. 10Web uses four pre-configured levels of optimization. One click, and you are off.
- 10Web Booster is a better value. WP Rocket is a premium plugin. This cost is on top of your hosting costs. And its paid version is a full optimization solution combining an optimization plugin, hosting (optimized backend), and top-tier dedicated support.
- 10Web is more than a site optimization plugin. WP Rocket is a caching plugin; you are left to figure out the rest. 10Web is an all-in-one platform offering the site optimizing caching plugin, reliable hosting, top-tier dedicated support, automated backups, AI-assisted theme builder, and more.
- 10Web has a FREE version. With no free version, a subscription of WP Rocket must be purchased. In contrast, 10Web Booster has a free version (not trial). You can use it and benefit from all the optimizations for free.
Key differences between 10Web and WP Rocket
Optimizing your WordPress website is essential to how your page is ranked. Google uses its Core Web Vitals and Page Speed metrics to determine at least in part how a page is ranked. Any resource that adds to the time it takes for your page to load can bring these scores down.
10Web implements multiple optimization techniques such as image optimization, caching, and reducing the size of static HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files to more advanced techniques such as generating critical CSS and delaying JavaScript. 10Web’s WordPress platform also provides hosting to optimize the back-end, something WP Rocket and other caching plugins can not do.
Image Optimization
10Web optimizes images by converting them to WebP format whenever possible. The WebP format is an image format much like jpeg or png, but with smaller file sizes. WP Rocket does not support converting images to WebP, and they recommend another plugin to provide this optimization. WP Rocket is a partial solution in this case.
10Web is a complete solution with WebP conversion built in and goes one step further by creating and delivering container-specific resized images that correspond to how your visitors view your website. Container-specific resizing is important because trying to load unnecessarily large images adds to the time it takes to load your website.
For example, you refrain from serving large images to visitors who may be on a mobile device and will not use full-size images.
Image optimization of 10Web Booster significantly improves first contentful paint (FCP) and largest contentful paint (LCP) metrics.
Font Swap
10Web implements the font-display:swap attribute, which signals the browser not to wait for a font to load before displaying text.
Waiting for a font to load can be a blocker and slow down page speed and the time for the core web vital first contentful paint (FCP).
WP Rocket only enables this for hosted Google fonts. This feature will not work when fonts are self-hosted. Additionally, if you want to disable this feature, an additional helper plugin is required to disable it.
Lazy Loading
Images, big and small, add to the time it takes to load a page. The longer it takes, the more likely a page is ranked lower than other faster-loading pages. Lazy Loading is a widespread technique that defers loading pages outside the viewport (the part of the website viewable on screen) until they are needed. The images are loaded just in time for viewing as the user scrolls.
10Web can lazy load images anywhere. If the images are found in a CSS file or <style> tag, 10Web will recognize them and be able to lazy load them.
WP Rocket will not lazy load these images.
Delay/Defer JavaScript
JavaScript impacts how long it takes for a page to be displayed because the browser treats it as a blocking resource. A blocking resource is any resource where the browser will pause loading a page while waiting for it to load fully. Often the case with JavaScript is that it will change the way the page is rendered.
Heavy JavaScript usage will significantly impact metrics such as total blocking time (TTB), time to interactive (TTI), and first contentful paint (FCP).
Some third-party vendors have been known to load additional and non-critical scripts via their plugins/software. These types of scripts include trackers, metrics, ads, and pop-ups, scripts that do not immediately add to the user experience in a positive way. 10Web considers these scripts lower priority when loading the page. When processing pages, 10Web removes low-priority scripts and reconnects them when needed. Think about it like lazy loading for JavaScript. As the user interacts with the website, the required content is loaded.
Both 10Web and WP Rocket implement delayed JavaScript. Where 10Web exceeds WP Rocket is in error detection and remediation.
If 10Web detects an issue delaying the JavaScript, it will automatically disable the functionality.
WP Rocket relies on the administrator to notice something wrong and troubleshoot/disable the feature on their own.
Critical CSS Generation
CSS (Cascading Stylesheets) can grow over time as more styles are added and rarely cleaned up. Critical CSS generation is a technique that automatically identifies the most critical CSS elements to the design and layout of the page and loads them as inline CSS with the HTML.
Loading only the essential CSS elements helps load the page faster, improving the first contentful paint (FCP), time to interactive (TTI), and total blocking time (TTB) metrics.
10Web generates critical CSS for mobile and desktop visitors in up to five different screen sizes.
WP Rocket only generates critical CSS after a page is browsed by a visitor. This critical CSS generation is important because it loads only the most relevant CSS.
After all the rendering, the result is a static HTML page that is a little larger because of the added inline CSS but can be minimized and cached.
Content Delivery Network
10Web has partnered with Cloudflare to present 10Web Booster with Cloudflare enterprise CDN. 10Web Booster with Cloudflare CDN integration ensures that websites receive unequaled web speed, functionality, and protection raising them to the top 1% of the fastest-loading sites with 90+ PageSpeed scores. 10Web Booster and Cloudflare provide full-page caching of static pages and delivery through the CDN for swift page load and server response time. Static and dynamic content is served through the enterprise CDN with unmatched speed. Multi-media content is also automatically optimized within the CDN for complete speed enhancement. Furthermore, 10Web Booster with Cloudflare cooperation protects your website against attacks and harmful activity.
WP Rocket also provides a CDN. RocketCDN is a custom CDN offered for an additional charge. RocketCDN has a smaller number of edge locations (50 compared to over 275 points by Cloudflare). RocketCDN automatically servers all CSS, JavaScript, and images within its content delivery network and provides GZIP compression and browser caching. Unlike Cloudflare, RocketCDN does not have any security and web protection solutions.
Caching
Most caching plugins, 10Web, and WP Rocket, included implement page and file/resource caching.
Caching is like already knowing the answer to a complex math problem. The first time you have to figure it out, you must go through each step, which takes longer. The next time you are asked the same problem, you already know the answer, taking much less time.
When you visit a WordPress page, a lot happens in the background. PHP scripts are being executed, and a few database queries are usually happening. Without caching, each time you request the page, the same actions have to be executed each time. All the additional execution takes time and is harder to scale.
With page caching enabled, the page is rendered, and the result is saved. Next time, the cached page is served up. This saves time and impacts core web vitals, such as time to first byte (TTFB).
10Web takes optimization even further than plugins like WP Rocket when paired with 10Web WordPress hosting. 10Web uses NGINX with FastCGI caching enabled to ensure the cached pages are served as quickly as possible.
Combining caching techniques on both the front and back end puts 10Web in a standout position within the caching plugin marketplace.
Why and how 10Web algorithms are more reliable?
With any optimizations, there is a chance there will be issues with the page rendering. Optimization techniques like lazy loading and delayed JS can cause problems if not implemented correctly. Rendering issues are one of the reasons most people turn to plugins like 10Web Booster and WP Rocket to help them implement the best-in-class techniques.
If there is an issue with page rendering, plugins like WP Rocket leave this project for you, the end user, to solve. If there is any issue, your page could be incorrectly displayed or broken until you disable the optimization or figure out how to fix it. The ease of use is only there as long as nothing goes wrong. Things always have the chance to go wrong.
10Web helps you out by implementing a non-breaking algorithm. When optimizations are applied, they are used in a sandbox environment first.
10Web creates a copy of your webpage before staging any optimizations. Only once the optimizations are verified not to cause issues are they pushed to the live site.
10Web’s non-breaking algorithm ensures that your page is optimized and renders all the time correctly. Non-breaking algorithms are one of the ways 10Web ensures your site is more reliable when using 10Web Booster.
10Web Booster: Product Development and Support
The 10Web Booster plugin has over 10,000 active installs. Behind the plugin is the 10Web engineering team with over 10+ years of web development experience. The 10Web engineering team has experience developing plugins, themes, and automated WordPress hosting solutions.
With the wide range of the team’s development experience, combining optimization techniques from all practice areas into one complete platform is easy.
In addition to embracing the depth of the engineering team’s experience, 10Web continuously works with web agencies and freelancers to understand the industry’s common and current issues.

The 10Web Booster plugin is easy to install and easy to use. Safeguards are in place to ensure your website does not break when using optimization techniques.
Even with the ease of use and the safeguards in place, it is sometimes essential to know you can get help if needed. 10Web has 24/7 customer care for those times you do need help.
If you need help, the 10Web team will be there via email, chat, and dedicated slack channels. According to WordPress’s plugin page, there is a proven track record of solving issues, with 90% of issues solved in the last two months.
10Web UX Clean and Simple
10Web Booster plugin takes the approach of less is more when optimizing websites. 10Web simple and automated system just makes things easier. Some plugins will start by presenting all possible optimizations and let you decide. If you are not an optimization expert, this can be overwhelming.
10Web takes a more straightforward approach. 10Web presents four automated optimization levels when configuring your website. Once an optimization level is selected, the site is optimized in a sandbox before pushing the updates live.
Having four starting options is an easier task to tackle than starting with all the bells, whistles, and knobs to turn. That being said, if you need or want finer-grained control over your site’s optimizations, those options are also available.
WP Rocket vs 10Web Pricing Structure
Both WP Rocket and 10Web are premium offerings that offer monthly or yearly based subscriptions.
WP Rocket has options for one, three, and unlimited websites. 10Web has options for one, three, and ten websites with the option to grow beyond that as you grow.
When using WP Rocket, in addition to the plan you choose, you still need to add on the cost of where you will host your website. There are many hosting options, and deciding where to host your website might be outside of your to-do list.
10Web, on the other hand, includes top-tier hosting on top of Google’s GCP servers. Each 10Web plan includes optimized WordPress hosting as part of the plan. If your site is hosted elsewhere, migrating to 10Web is a one-click automated experience and is included with your plan. Other hosting providers may charge for migration.
Let’s break down and compare each plan a little further.
Starting, if you just want to try the optimization features, 10Web offers a free plugin. WP Rocket does not provide a free option.
At the free level, 10Web Booster does optimization on the homepage and an additional five inner pages. This is perfect when you just want to try it out or just getting started.
10Web guarantees a high cache hit ratio for all websites, improved Core Web Vitals, a 90+ PageSpeed score, and 24/7 support starting at the free level.
WP Rocket will cost $49 a year for one website plus hosting, storage, and backup fees for those starting with a single website.
10Web’s Personal plan starts at $10/mo (30% discount when billed annually). It comes with all of the frontend and backend optimization features, automated hosting, and 24/7 customer care, just to name a few of the features.

10Web Superior Technology of Optimization
The 10Web difference is in the number of technology optimizations on your WordPress website. These optimizations improve core web vitals and achieve a page speed score of 90+.
Caching
To achieve a page speed score of 90+, your page has to respond quickly. When the page is initially loaded, the PHP code must be executed, the database must be called, the additional javascript and CSS must be loaded, and all this takes time.
To reduce this time, 10Web enables both page and file caching. These optimizations factor into the metrics that matter.
Enabling caching will
- Decrease the time to Interactive (TTI)
- Decrease the total blocking time (TTB)
- Decrease the time for the First Contentful Paint (FCP)
- Increase the Speed Index
The practice of page and file caching is storing the rendered pages and minified javascript and CSS after the first visit. After the first visit, the resources have been cached and can be loaded faster.
Page cache is when the dynamic PHP pages are saved as static minimized HTML files that will load faster than having to re-render the page each time.
In addition to saving the rendered page, file caching saves the minified and optimized CSS files, so they load faster.
CDN
CDN or a content distribution/delivery network, typically, is a global scale network of proxy servers distributed across the world to store cached web content and deliver the content from the nearest server to the visitor. Oftentimes, CDN also includes automatic optimization of content, website security, and other features to improve speed and website capacity. CDNs can cache HTML pages, javascript files, stylesheets, images, videos, and visitors’ browsers. The process of optimizing, caching, and delivering from the nearest network server significantly decreases the distance between the server and the visitor browser, while also reducing page load time and increasing overall website speed. CDN impacts all metrics and is recommended for websites with global audiences for its noticeably significant impact on non-local visitors.
Cloudflare has one of the largest global networks of servers, reaching over 275 data centers, covering over 100 countries and 95% of the global population, all under 100ms.
10Web Booster Pro ensures access to Cloudflare’s enterprise package. Through the package, your website will be cached and served from Cloudflare’s “reserved-for-enterprise” network with advanced mechanisms and features.
Of course, automatic catching is provided for all website’s static content, including non-image content like CSS/JavaScript files, file attachments, and others. Cloudflare also secures full-page caching. CSS and JS files, fonts, and media content also undergo minification and optimization before caching. Built-in lazy loading is also applied. Through these advanced CDN features, websites receive ultra-fast speed and page load.
Cloudflare also bolsters server-side infrastructure through the CDN’s solid-state drives and load-balancing capacity, a feature particularly important for websites with limited hosting capacity. Cloudflare removes the need for auto-scaling, load balancers, and configurations. The CDN and its vast interconnected network of servers mitigate the pressure on the origin server by automatically directing and load-balancing traffic. Hence, your website is automatically provided the scalability and reliability it needs to maintain and enhance optimal website performance.
Cloudflare also promises increased uptime by ensuring that your website stays available to visitors even when your server is not. Server downtime will no longer cause website downtime with 10Web Booster and Cloudflare CDN. Your cached website will be served to visitors even during blackouts. Besides high uptime, Cloudflare also ensures that your website is always protected and secure. It utilizes leading web firewalls, DDoS, anomaly detection, custom CAPTCHAs, and bot mitigation to keep threats at bay.
CSS, JS & HTML minification and compression
In the previous section, we mentioned minified CSS, JS, and HTML with regard to file caching. Minification is when extra white space and non-essential details like comments are removed, resulting in a smaller file.
The resulting page is not very human-readable, but to the browser, human-readable does not matter. A smaller file means faster loading time impacts all of the core vitals and page speed metrics.
In addition to minification, the files are also compressed using gzip (non-hosted sites) and brotli ( sites hosted on 10Web).
Critical CSS
Going hand in hand with the minification of CSS is also the generation of critical CSS. Critical CSS requires smartly analyzing the referenced CSS files for the most important CSS rules. Critical CSS is generated for five different device sizes, so the most relevant CSS to your device is loaded.
Once identified, these rules are moved in-line, making them part of the rendered, cached HTML files.
For example, if the CSS file is 4MB but only uses 50KB to initially load the page, then the 50KB would be added in-line while the rest of the CSS would be deferred till needed.
This feature positively impacts First Contentful Paint (FCP), Time to Interactive (TTI), Total Blocking Time (TBT).
Image, iframe, and video Lazyload
Lazy loading is a technique where the resources outside the viewport, i.e., below the fold, are not loaded until needed.
Often, images, videos, and the content in iframes can be rather large and contribute to how long it takes to load or even block a page from loading. As the user scrolls down the page and these elements are needed, only then will they be loaded. 10Web can also lazy load background images, something WP Rocket can not do with their implementation.
As an example, think about a product listing page with multiple images. This is an excellent example of when lazy loading is best used. As you scroll down the page, more product images are loaded, but only as needed.
Lazy loading positively impacts metrics like first contentful paint (FCP) and Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) because large resources like images and video are deferred till they are needed.
Preloading Images
While one technique is to defer images until they are needed, another method that 10Web implements is preloading of the images by adding rel=”preload” to them. These are usually the images that are required when the page first loads.
10Web Booster preloading algorithm finds all the images required for display and can discern what images to load based on the device viewing the page.
This means mobile users will get optimized images for mobile, and desktop users will get images optimized for desktops.
Image Optimization
Many of the optimization techniques benefit from stacking on each other. In addition to trying to preload images, 10Web’s optimization does a few more things.
10Web converts images to WebP format and sets up container-specific resized images when needed.
WebP format is an image format similar to JPEG and PNG but with better lossless and lossy compression. While most browsers support the WebP format, the original images are served up if a visitor’s browser does not support WebP.
Container-specific image resizing means that 10Web optimizes images based on the website’s device. If a visitor uses a mobile browser, the image is sized appropriately. If a visitor uses a desktop, the right-sized images are served up.
This improves First Contentful Paint (FCP), Time to Interactive (TTI), and Total Blocking Time (TBT), all positively.
Optimizing font delivery
Font swapping is a technique where font-display:swap signals the browser not to block page rendering while a font is being downloaded.
The browser will not wait for a font file to download and continue to render the page fully. When the font is downloaded, the font is swapped with the preferred font.
This technique helps improve first contentful paint (FCP) and time to interactive (TTI) because the browser is not waiting for the font to load while preventing a flash of unstyled text (FOUT).
JS Delay
JavaScript is a beautiful tool that adds interactivity to your site. Scripts can gather stats and other data for your website, giving you more insight into your visitors. Often they are added by third-party software or plugins.
As much as they add, they have the potential to take away from the speed at which your page loads.
In general, JavaScript is considered a blocking resource. This means the browser will wait until the JavaScript has been loaded before fully rendering the page. This time directly impacts things like time to interactive (TTI) and the time for first contentful paint (FCP), and First Input Delay (FID).
10Web identifies which JavaScript should not be delayed and then defers the loading of JavaScript that can be delayed till after the user interacts with the page.
There is also a distinction between critical and non-critical scripts.
We want to load scripts critical to how the page functions but defer the scripts that do not impact how the page functions. Deciding on what scripts are critical versus non-critical can be dicey. This is one of the areas where a page can break if deferred javascript is not implemented correctly.
10Web addresses this issue by staging optimizations in a sandbox before moving them to a live site.
10Web Optimization on any Hosting
One of the important features of 10Web is the combination of an easy-to-use optimization plugin paired with world-class automated WordPress hosting. They were designed to work together.
The 10Web Booster plugin was designed to pair with 10Web’s WordPress hosting, but even if you do not have 10Web hosting, the 10Web Booster plugin does a significant amount of optimization. For example, 10Web guarantees a 90+ page score on any site, not just for those hosted with 10Web. The 90+ guarantee even applies for slower shared hosting.
No matter where you currently host your WordPress website, you can install the 10Web Booster plugin from WordPress.org, and it will work to optimize your homepage plus five other internal pages.
10Web’s optimization starts in one of four optimization levels.
Standard Level
- CSS and HTML minification and compression
- Page and file cache
- JS minification and compression
- Image optimization
- Image, iframe, and video lazy load
- Font swap
- Image conversion to WebP
- Container-specific image resizing
Balanced Level
- Standard Level
- Critical CSS generation
Strong Level
- Standard Level
- JS Delay
Extreme Level
- Standard Level
- Critical CSS generation
- JS Delay
All of these font-end features work on any hosting. When possible, 10Web Booster will locally optimize the front end. Still, when it comes to generating critical CSS and locating images that could be lazy-loaded, 10Web’s servers are used to assist these techniques. Using 10Web’s servers means this process will not consume your server’s resources or raise the server’s load.
Even though 10Web’s frontend optimization works on any hosting, the backend optimization is unlocked when using 10Web’s servers.

Backend Optimization
What makes 10Web a complete solution as opposed to other caching plugins is the ability to take advantage of optimizing the backend, a.k.a, the server side.
When using other plugins, this is left up to the user to figure out. 10Web takes care of optimizing both the front and back end.
Optimizing the backend takes a different skill set. You must understand how to maximize your web server, Apache or Nginx, PHP, and database.
It is vital to optimize the backend because even with all of the front-end optimizations, some metrics, like time to the first byte, are controlled by the server-side specifics.
10Web uses Google Cloud Platform as the backbone for hosting your websites. Using a trusted partner like GCP ensures your website is hosted on top-tier high-quality infrastructure.
The infrastructure hosted on GCP uses SSD for high-speed I/O and LXC containers for website isolation. Isolation helps ensure that your website is not affected by other websites.
For each website, the latest version of PHP and MySQL are used to ensure maximum performance, up-to-date security patches, and the latest code optimization available to WordPress. Some benchmarks show that each new version of PHP performs 10% faster than the previous version.
1-Click Migration
Migrating your WordPress website from one host to another can often be daunting. 10Web has made this process easier on the end user by developing a 1-Click migration plugin.
Your website can be migrated to 10Web in three steps.
- Download the migration plugin
- Install and Activate the plugin
- Automatically on optimized copy of your website will be generated, hosted on 10Web
- Point the domain to the optimized copy
- Remove the original website.
If your website cannot be mitigated via the plugin, 10Web offers free manual migrations.
Slow Hosting is a Thing of the Past
10Web understands your page speed is crucial to how your page is ranked. In addition to the front-end optimization, 10Web hosting works on the backend to pair Nginx FastCGI cache and reliable hosting.
10Web’s WordPress hosting is built on top of GCP and uses Google Cloud’s premium tier low-latency network. Nginx Fast CGI is the fastest page caching solution. Both of these create a solid hosting solution.
Benefits of Cloud
It has been mentioned before 10Web’s hosting is built on top of the Google Cloud Platform (GCP). This means websites using 10Web’s hosting can take advantage of Google’s premium low-latency network delivered out of Google’s data centers worldwide.
The servers 10Web uses utilize faster SSD (Solid-State Drives) for faster disk reads and Linux container technology for process isolation.
Process isolation is necessary because it protects your website from “noisy neighbors.” A noisy neighbor is a website on the same system that, when unconstrained, tries to consume more than its fair share of resources.
Using the cloud means that the platform can scale as needed. You do not have to worry about running out of resources such as disk space or RAM. All of this is managed for you.
Outstanding Product Development and Support
The 10Web Booster plugin, the 10Web hosting, and all of 10Web’s products are backed by 24/7 customer care support, documentation, and online communities.
The 10Web Booster benefits start with an easy-to-use, intuitive, and well-documented interface.
When you need more help, 24/7 customer care support is available at every level, including the free tier when installing the plugin. You can reach support via email, chat, or a dedicated slack channel.
10Web takes customer support seriously and uses the Net Promoter Score (NPS) to understand support satisfaction better and continuously improve its support level.
Built for Agencies
10Web’s top-level plan, the Agency Plan, on top of everything provided in all previous levels, provides white-label support.
White-label support allows agencies to brand their WordPress dashboards. This is an excellent way for your business to offer your customers already tried and true solutions.
Additional users on the Agency plan can add other sites for a discounted rate of $6/mo for each additionally hosted website.
10Web – More than a Speed Booster
As you can see here, 10Web is more than a speed optimizer. 10Web is a complete product offering multiple benefits on multiple levels.
WordPress Hosting Features
We know that 10Web hosting is built on a GCP using top-tier and low-latency networks with SSDs.
Security
Security is also a top concern for 10Web. As part of 10Web’s practices, each website is encrypted with a free SSL cert to Let’s Encrypt.

Summary
10Web is a superior plugin to WP Rocket. Many of the standard optimization techniques are implemented in both plugins, but not all. 10Web offers WebP integration and container-specific resizing that WP Rocket does not provide.
WP Rocket also has a gap in total WordPress site management. It does not offer hosting, a site builder, backups, etc. All of these critical decisions are left to try and figure out.
10Web makes the entire process easy and helps the user have peace of mind that your site is performing the best it can be.
In the end, 10Web is the clear choice for complete WordPress optimization.
