Browser Caching

Path: SpeedyGo → Settings → Caching & Preloading

4.1 Overview #

Browser caching instructs the visitor’s browser to store static resources locally for a defined period. Instead of downloading the same files again on every visit, the browser loads them directly from local storage.

SpeedyGo automatically adds Expires and Cache-Control headers via .htaccess (or server configuration).

This applies to:

  • CSS files
  • JavaScript files
  • Images
  • Fonts

Benefits:

  • Faster repeat visits
  • Reduced server requests
  • Lower bandwidth consumption

How It Works Internally #

  • Adds Expires headers to define resource lifetime
  • Sets Cache-Control: public, max-age= values
  • Applies rules to common static file extensions (CSS, JS, JPG, PNG, WebP, SVG, WOFF, etc.)
  • Improves performance for returning visitors

4.2 Settings #

Enable Browser Caching #

  • Toggle Browser Caching → ON

Cache Duration #

  • Set Cache Duration (in hours)

Example:

  • 720 hours = 30 days

This defines how long static assets remain stored in the visitor’s browser before revalidation.

4.3 Best Practice Recommendation #

  • Use longer durations (30–90 days) for stable assets
  • Clear cache after major design or CSS/JS changes
  • Combine with Full-Page Caching for maximum performance gains

Browser Caching significantly improves performance for returning users and reduces overall server load.
