Implement caching to improve your website's performance from "summary" of WordPress For Dummies by Lisa Sabin-Wilson
Caching is a vital tool that can significantly boost your website's performance. By storing copies of your web pages, images, and files, caching allows your website to load faster for users. When a visitor accesses your site, the cached version is displayed instead of generating the page from scratch every time. This helps reduce the load on your server and speeds up the overall user experience.
There are different types of caching you can implement on your WordPress site. Browser caching, for example, stores static files like images, CSS, and JavaScript in a visitor's browser, so they don't have to be reloaded each time the user navigates to a different page. This can dramatically reduce loading times for returning visitors. Another type of caching is server-side caching, which stores dynamic content in a temporary file or memory to quickly serve it to users without having to generate it from the database each time.
To implement caching on your WordPress site, you can use plugins like W3 Total Cache or WP Super Cache. These plugins offer a range of caching options and settings that can be easily configured to suit your website's needs. By enabling caching, you can improve your site's speed and performance, which can lead to higher search engine rankings and better user engagement.
You can provide a better user experience and ultimately drive more traffic to your site.
