Rocket.net delivers on its speed promise. If global performance is your top priority for WordPress, Rocket.net's edge-first approach is in a class of its own.
Rocket.net launched with a bold promise: the fastest WordPress hosting on the planet. They achieve this by deeply integrating with Cloudflare's Enterprise CDN, caching entire WordPress pages at the edge and serving them from the nearest PoP.
The results speak for themselves. Average load times in our global testing were 150ms, the fastest WordPress hosting we've measured. Because pages are served from Cloudflare's edge rather than the origin server, performance is consistently fast regardless of visitor location.
All plans include Cloudflare Enterprise CDN, WAF, DDoS protection, image optimization, and automatic page caching. The dashboard is clean and focused, without the complexity of traditional hosting panels.
Plans start at $25/month for one site. While premium-priced, the included Cloudflare Enterprise features alone would cost $200+/month purchased separately.
Rocket.net is ideal for WordPress users who want the absolute fastest global performance and Cloudflare Enterprise features without the enterprise price tag.
