How to Leverage Browser Cache

When you run a page speed test, you'll likely see a warning about enabling Browser Cache.

This tutorial will show you how to enable this feature without a plugin. This is done on your website But, there will be certain utilities (third-party) that are on not on your website (called from external servers) that can not be cached and must either be acceptable or removed.

Here is the code that I reference within the video:

## EXPIRES CACHING ##

<IfModule mod_expires.c>

ExpiresActive On

ExpiresByType image/jpg "access 1 year"

ExpiresByType image/jpeg "access 1 year"

ExpiresByType image/gif "access 1 year"

ExpiresByType image/png "access 1 year"

ExpiresByType text/css "access 1 month"

ExpiresByType application/pdf "access 1 month"

ExpiresByType text/x-javascript "access 1 month"

ExpiresByType application/x-shockwave-flash "access 1 month"

ExpiresByType image/x-icon "access 1 year"

ExpiresDefault "access 2 days"

</IfModule>
