Speed up Your WordPress Blog With Two Simple Tricks
I am going to update this tricks on the next update of wordpress SEO which is most likely to happen with in next couple of days as I review the different sections of the tutorial and make updates on them. But for now I am giving out these tricks which might help you a little.
1. Enabling Web Server Compression:
Enabling web server compression will reduce the size of your pages by compressing them, this will help you a lot with faster page loads, load on the server, also search bots will find it helpful to crawl through pages with reduced file size, it increases the over all site performance and user experience. To enable this compression all you need to do is create a php.ini file in your server root and include these lines in it.
zlib.output_compression=on
if you already have php.ini just include these lines in to it at first or at the end.
Use Wp-cache:
I recommend using wp-cache over wp-supercache for a simple reason, I really didn’t find much of a difference with both, although if you find noticeable difference with both I would say its worth to stick with wp-cache because supercache proved to be little buggy or problematic when you move your blog to some other location or while selling your blog or if you want to uninstall the plugin. I have noticed using wp-cache with web server compression enabled has increased the blog loading speed to a great extent which is more than enough than loading a script or plugin on your blog which can be little buggy and troublesome at times.
