WP Fastest Cache Settings will show you how to set up this very simple yet very powerful WordPress cache plugin.
Last Updated: November 8, 2024
Latest News: Updated the changelog version.
Out of all the cache plugins I have tested and read about, this would have to be one of the simplest yet so powerful cache plugin in the market. Apart from being a very simple plugin to set up the support you receive from Emre Vona is impressive.
The free version is more than enough for most people. However it has a great premium version that has many more extras which improve your page speed and performance. This makes Google happy when your website loads up fast. In return it helps with SEO “Search Engine Optimization”.
This tutorial is based on the following changelog. When ever there is a new feature added or a feature optimized or fixed I will update the tutorial.
