Boost your Website with Varnish

Boost your Website with Varnish

You can now boost your website, whether you developed it yourself or use a CMS such as WordPress, Joomla, or Drupal, with our Varnish accelerator-cache, which is incredibly easy to use. This will drastically increase the speed at which your pages are shown, provided the pages are cached.

DNS setup

If your domain points to Gigahost’s name servers, we control DNS for the domain. Simply log in to the Control Center and choose the domain you wish to use Varnish with. Then choose the “DNS” tab, and under “DNS Templates” at the bottom of the page, choose “Varnish Proxy Server” and press “Add Template”. If you are in doubt about whether you use our name servers, ask our Technical Support.

As a rule of thumb, allow the name servers about an hour before Varnish really begins working on the domain.

2024 update

Varnish is no longer offered with Gigahost, and has been replaced by infrastructure that is generally even faster.
