Powerful Cache Plugins To Speed Up Your WordPress
Millions of people run their blog on WordPress. It is the most popular blogging Script, and it keeps getting better.
One way to speed up your WordPress is by adding the proper cache plugin in to your website. Caching not only reduces the load on your servers, but it improves the performance and speed of your blog, hence keeping your visitors happy.
Here are some quick reasons for using caching
- Provides a faster access to websites & its webpages
- Increases responsiveness at the client side
- Decreases network latency & download time of images, php, scripts, flash etc.
WP Super Cache
This plugin is an extension of the original version, generating static HTML files form your dynamic WordPress blog,meaning that your server won’t have to deal with those resource intensive PHP scripts all the time.
Hyper Cache
This plugin was specially designed for sites that run on low resources. It is able to manage both plain and GZIP compressed pages, automatically cleans the system to reduce disk usage, and is easy to configure. Some configuration is required.
Plugin Output Cache
Plugin Output Cache can be used by other plugins to cache portions of their output for efficiency. By itself it does nothing but other plugins (like my own Similar Posts, Recent Posts, Recent Comments, and Random Posts) can be adapted to take advantage of its cache whenever available.
W3 Total Cache
The fastest and most complete WordPress performance optimization plugin. W3 Total Cache improves the user experience of your blog by improving your server performance, caching every aspect of your site, reducing the download time of your theme and providing transparent content delivery network (CDN) integration
WP-Cache
WP-Cache is an extremely efficient WordPress page caching system to make you site much faster and responsive. It works by caching Worpress pages and storing them in a static file for serving future requests directly from the file rather than loading and compiling the whole PHP code and the building the page from the database.
DB Cache
This plugin caches every database query with given lifetime. It is much faster than other html caching plugins and uses less disk space for caching.
WP Cache Inspect
The aim of the plugin is to help people analyse the behaviour of the cache builtin to WordPress. It provides optional the administrator with a quick overview of how the cache is performing and allows the cache to be removed manually from an admin page.
Cache Images
Goes through your posts and gives you the option to cache all hotlinked images from a domain locally in your upload folder
