👩💻 Real User Success Stories
-
★★★★★ BerqWP beat NitroPack, LiteSpeed Cache, WP Rocket, Perfmatters, FlyingPress….
“BerqWP beat NitroPack, LiteSpeed Cache, WP Rocket, Perfmatters, FlyingPress, W3 Total Cache, Super Cache and more. On their homepage you can test your site speed and they will show you the expected Page Speed Insights score. In my experience, once BerqWP plugin is installed, your PSI scores will be higher than their estimate. Connect your Cloudflare free account and get Edge Page Caching. Then set to Aggressive mode and enjoy higher scores without changing a single setting. BerqWP is Voodoo Magic!” -
★★★★★ Consistent 100/100 score, Great support
“I have tried multiple caching software programs, but none of them were so easy to set up, and the results are incomparable! I have reached out several times to the support. They always respond, sometimes you have to wait (decent time), sometimes within a day they respond and solve your issue instantly. Keep up the good work!” -
★★★★★ Working really great
“Just bought the pro plugin and started using it replacing the 10web io which was great but expensive for me, I was just a little worried whether this one would work ok without conflicting with my current plugins so i tested the free version first and it worked fine. Good customer support as well. I would recommend the pro plugin but try the free one first and then decide.” -
★★★★★ A must have
“It’s been a while without writing a review from my side, but BerqWP deserves my 5 stars.It’s incredible easy to use, seriously, a newbie could make it work easily. It improves loading times dramatically, to the point that I don’t really understand what’s the magic behind it (I’m not joking). I always thought that a bit more speed could be achieved at my websites, but not this much. I wasn’t aware that the servers that I use for my sites were capable of this speeds, and I always thought that part of the issue was using medium servers instead of top notch ones.Thank you so much guys! Keep doing your magic, I’ll spread the word about you as I really want you to succeed and last forever. Oh, and I really can’t believe how your plugin can exceed that much what other premium plugins achieve (I tried quite a few).” -
★★★★★ Plugin is incredibly easy to use
“The BerqWP plugin is incredibly easy to use, even for those who are not optimization experts. The setup is intuitive, and it works flawlessly, even on websites built with Elementor Pro, without causing any issues. Additionally, their support team is active and consistently responds to inquiries promptly, instilling confidence in the service.”
How Does BerqWP Work?
Unlike traditional speed optimization plugins, BerqWP optimizes your website using our proprietary optimization software called the Photon Engine. Instead of handling resource-intensive tasks on your web server, which can slow it down, BerqWP processes optimizations externally. This is crucial because heavy tasks like critical CSS generation, WebP/AVIF conversion, and JavaScript optimization can overwhelm ordinary servers when performed at scale.
Here’s how it works:
- When a webpage is added to the Photon Engine queue, BerqWP fetches the page’s HTML.
- Various optimizations are applied, including HTML minification, image conversion, lazy loading, and JavaScript execution control.
- Once optimized, the Photon Engine stores the fully optimized HTML in your website as a form of cache.
- To handle traffic before optimization is complete, BerqWP creates an instant cache, a placeholder cache with minimal optimizations, ensuring fast page loads even before full optimization.
💭 Why Cloud Optimization
On high traffic websites, cache becomes stale fast. Every new post, comment or content edit triggers a cache rebuild which puts heavy load on your server and can slow your site down or take it offline entirely. With Cloud Optimization, all processing happens on BerqWP’s servers so your server stays free to do what it does best: serve your visitors.
✅ Advanced Cache for Faster Server Response Time
BerqWP utilizes the WordPress advanced-cache.php file to deliver cached pages as fast as possible. By bypassing unnecessary database queries and reducing the number of files loaded on each request, BerqWP significantly improves server response time (TTFB – Time to First Byte), ensuring that your pages load within milliseconds.
✅ Core Web Vitals Optimizations
BerqWP is designed to help websites achieve high scores on Google’s Core Web Vitals, improving user experience and SEO rankings.
Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) Optimization
- Image Preloading: BerqWP detects the LCP element (usually an image or banner) and preloads it to ensure it loads as quickly as possible.
- WebP Conversion: All images are converted into WebP format, reducing file size by 70% – 85% while maintaining quality.
- Efficient Lazy Loading: Images and background images only load when users scroll, reducing initial load time.
Interaction to Next Paint (INP) & JavaScript Optimization
- JavaScript Delay: BerqWP delays JavaScript execution until user interaction (mouse move, click, scroll, or tap), improving initial page load speed.
- Multiple Execution Modes: Choose between different JavaScript execution modes tailored to your website’s needs.
Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) Fixes
- Image Dimension Attributes: BerqWP ensures all images have width and height attributes, preventing unexpected layout shifts.
- Font Optimization: Fonts are loaded efficiently with font-display: swap to eliminate render-blocking issues.
✅ Critical CSS for Instant Rendering
Loading external stylesheets can delay rendering, so BerqWP generates Critical CSS for each page separately.
- The Critical CSS contains only the styles needed for the visible portion of the page.
- The remaining CSS loads asynchronously, ensuring fast page rendering without affecting layout or design.
✅ BerqWP CDN – Global Performance Boost
BerqWP integrates with Cloudflare CDN to ensure static assets (images, CSS, JavaScript, web fonts) load from the nearest server to the visitor’s location. This results in:
- Reduced latency and improved website performance globally.
- Faster Time to First Byte (TTFB) for all users.
✅ Font Optimization for CLS Stability
- BerqWP extracts and preloads fonts used in above-the-fold content, ensuring faster font rendering.
- Uses font-display: swap to prevent text from disappearing while fonts load, improving user experience.
✅ Optimization Modes for Flexibility
BerqWP offers four optimization modes:
- Standard – Core optimizations including image optimization, page cache, and URL prefetch. Maximum compatibility.
- Smart – Asynchronous JavaScript and CSS loading. Highly stable, great for complex sites.
- Blaze – Asynchronous CSS with delayed JavaScript. Design-first optimization for high performance with visual stability.
- Turbo – Delayed CSS and JavaScript for minimal initial requests and best possible performance.
For best results, we recommend starting with Turbo mode, but stepping down to Blaze or Smart can help if compatibility issues arise.
⚙️ How to set up BerqWP in 4 simple steps?

Frequently asked questions
Why is the plugin slug searchpro when your product is called BerqWP?
Early in development we registered our plugin under the searchpro namespace on WordPress.org. Unfortunately, WordPress.org doesn’t allow slugs to be renamed once created. Rest assured, this is only a directory name—every feature, every update, and every bit of our branding is still BerqWP. You won’t see “Search Pro” anywhere in the UI, URLs, or your dashboards after installation.
