Single on are faster, but they are plain text. Doubles ones search for variables inside , so it takes a bit longer. $World = 3; echo " Hello $World" //output Hello 3 echo 'Hello $World' //output Hello $World

Double quotes force PHP to evaluate the string while single is treated as a string literal. So, using single quotes is faster than using double quotes.
