    This plugin has a lot of potential, so I gave it 5 stars. And most importantly, the developer responds to all ratings.

    Even so, I want to point out that it’s not good for mobile devices.

    1) It increases server response time. In my case I didn’t have the message on PageSpeed Insights and now it appeared. (
    Reduce initial server response time)
    2) It doesn’t merge CSS files.
    3) My server is set to http/2 but the plugin doesn’t recognize it.
    4) Speed Booster Pack is a bit selfish because it doesn’t recognize the data configured in the Perfmatters plugin, or other JS and CSS optimization plugins.

    This plugin is easy to configure. And as I said, it has a lot of potential to be the best caching plugin if you make some tweaks.

    Hope developers read this review and apply some better ones. but he certainly deserves 5 stars.

    Thank you for your kind words, @ebarboza! Somehow we didn’t get an email notification for your review but luckily I (Bar??) have a Google alert for Speed Booster Pack, so I saw it. In response to your remarks:

    1) Our page caching system actually works for mobile devices too but in some cases, server might work too slow even with page caching active. But we’re always trying to get the plugin perform better, so we’d love to have a look at your website. Can you use this link to contact us and send your website address?

    2) Merging assets is an old practice, remnant of the HTTP/1.1 era. With HTTP/2 and beyond, browsers can download assets simultaneously which is actually faster than downloading huge, single chunks of assets. See (4) below though.

    3) This is a bug that we’ve just discovered… and fixed! We’ve completed coding version 4.3.2 and if you get in touch with us and grant access to your admin panel (or install the BETA version yourself), we’d love to test if our fix works on your website too!

    4) We love Autoptimize, and Autoptimize loves us too! @futtta (dev of AO) and I worked together for over 5 years to offer Optimocha’s services to Autoptimize’s user base; and when Optimocha acquired Speed Booster Pack in 2019, our team wrote SBP from scratch while improving compatibility with other performance plugins. Perfmatters, Fastest Cache etc. are our direct competitors and it’s always a wise choice to choose one of each pair of similar plugins… but Autoptimize and Speed Booster Pack complement each other so you can safely use them together ??

    Again, thank you for your kind words, and your suggestions too! I can personally promise you that we do thrive to be the best performance plugin in the WordPress ecosystem, and users like you give us power and motivation to achieve this goal!

    I am extremely happy to receive your @optimocha message. I got it wrong about HTTP/2 parsing, because my server is configured for HTTP/2, but I only use DNS Cloudflare, with gray clouds and a free account. So DNS doesn’t pull with HTTP/2.

    I loved the Speed Booster Pack plugin. I want to congratulate the developers, because this plugin is really a 5 star with an excellent configuration panel, and its features are effective.

    Regarding mobile caching, I’ve noticed that all cache plugins don’t have a robust solution. It’s not just Speed Booster Pack.

    About Autooptimize – it really works flawlessly. This I also made a mess. I should just disable Javascript functions in Speed Booster Pack and configure it in Autoptimize.

    All right now!
