Methodology and snapshot notes

WP-Optimize vs WP Super Cache is a data-led WordPress plugin comparison on HostList. Both sides use the same WordPress.org signals: active-install buckets, ratings, rating volume, and support resolution where available. Neither plugin vendor can pay for a win on this page. Use the numbers to shortlist a tool, then follow the hosting links for WordPress, WooCommerce, caching, or security fit. Active installs are ranges, not exact counts. HostList rank is by active-install bucket only (alphabetical tiebreak within a bucket).

As of the latest HostList snapshot, WP-Optimize sits at 1M+ active installs with a 4.8/5 rating from 2,608 reviews (rank #66 by installs). WP Super Cache is at 1M+, 4.3/5 from 1,345 reviews (rank #65). Support resolution is 86.7% for WP-Optimize and 100% for WP Super Cache. Prefer the side whose install bucket, rating volume, and support load match your risk tolerance, then pick hosting that fits that stack.
