Hoster tier · for hosting providers

License the host, not each site

The Hoster tier covers every site a host serves: unlimited hosted domains per host, volume licensing on fleet size. Built for cPanel/WHM fleets and managed nginx and Apache platforms, installed from the same signed apt + yum repo every retail nginx and Apache install uses — packages.modpagespeed.com.

Why hosts don't buy per site

Retail licensing is per site: one registrable domain, bought by the site owner. That unit works for a business running its own domain. It breaks on a shared host, where one box serves hundreds of tenant domains that come and go — the tenants aren't the buyer, the host is.

The Hoster tier changes the unit. One license per host covers every domain the host serves. A host is one server running the module, physical or virtual. Tenant counts, vhosts, and churn stop mattering.

Pricing
Volume licensing, negotiated on fleet size — bring your host count.
Covers
Every site on the host, on either engine — mod_pagespeed 1.15 (Apache, nginx, IIS) or ModPageSpeed 2.0.
Keys
Minted per host. On mod_pagespeed 1.15, apply each host's key in the admin console at /pagespeed_global_admin. On ModPageSpeed 2.0, set PAGESPEED_LICENSE_KEY in the environment of the nginx module and worker, or use the console's manual key entry.
Term
Annual, renewable, invoiced. Set up through the contact form — there is no self-serve checkout for this tier.

Install from packages.modpagespeed.com

No hoster-specific builds: the same signed packages every nginx and Apache deployment installs. Routine apt-get upgrade / dnf upgrade picks up new releases. The other covered engines install from their own channels: IIS from the signed MSI, ModPageSpeed 2.0 from the public Docker images — both on the download page.

cPanel / EasyApache 4

Signed RPMs for EL8 and EL9 (AlmaLinux, Rocky, RHEL, CloudLinux): ea-apache24-mod_pagespeed. Write the yum repo file, dnf install, tick the Apache Modules checkbox in WHM, provision. After the rebuild the filter runs on every vhost the box serves.

Debian / Ubuntu (apt)

One line installs the repo and signing key. Then nginx-module-pagespeed — prebuilt for Debian 11/12/13 and Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 (amd64 + arm64), pinned to each distro's stock nginx — or mod-pagespeed for Apache.

What your tenants get

The module works at the server layer. Tenants change nothing: it rewrites HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and images at serve time, per vhost. Measured on our own pages: −68% page size through the full server-layer pipeline. If an optimization fails, the original is served.

Configuration is per vhost, the way Apache and nginx config already works — enable it fleet-wide, tune it per plan, or switch it off in a vhost include. See the directive reference.

No tenant outage rides on a renewal date

Production use requires a commercial license — but the software never locks you out. An unlicensed or lapsed install keeps optimizing and adds an X-PageSpeed-Warn: unlicensed response header, plus an admin-console notice and a startup-log warning. The warning never escalates: day 1000 behaves like day 1. That also makes evaluation simple — install unlicensed on one box and watch it optimize before you talk to us.

How the deal works

The Hoster tier is a partner deal, fulfilled manually. Three steps:

  1. Step 1

    Contact

    Send your host count and stack — cPanel/EA4, nginx, or Apache — through the contact form.

  2. Step 2

    Agreement

    Annual term, renewable, invoiced. Volume pricing, negotiated on fleet size.

  3. Step 3

    Keys

    We mint one key per host. On mod_pagespeed 1.15 fleets, apply each key in that host's admin console at /pagespeed_global_admin — the same console path on every server 1.15 supports. On ModPageSpeed 2.0, set PAGESPEED_LICENSE_KEY in the environment.

One license per host. Signed packages. No lock-outs.

Tell us your host count and stack; we'll come back with a quote and a rollout plan.
