What is the best caching plugin for WordPress?<\/a><\/li><\/ol><\/li><\/ol><\/nav>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"why-wordpress-sites-can-be-slow\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why WordPress sites can be slow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">WordPress is a prevalent content management system with thousands of extensions. The simplicity of extending WordPress with plugins and the maintenance of fairly long backward compatibility for extensions when releasing subsequent versions of WordPress has the negative consequence of placing a heavy load on the CPU and server memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is why the generation times for WordPress-based pages \u2013 even on powerful servers \u2013 often exceed several hundred milliseconds. If you have extensive themes (templates) and a large number of extensions installed, then these times can surpass several seconds. It is worth knowing that times longer than 500ms are already felt by users (to the 500ms needed to generate a page by the web server, one must add the time needed to send it to the browser, display the content and enable the first interaction, e.g. scrolling the page or opening a link) and have a negative impact on the position in Google search results. It is therefore worth ensuring that WordPress-based sites generate faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-w3-total-cache-improves-wordpress-performance\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">How W3 Total Cache improves WordPress performance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A considerable reduction in page generation time can be achieved, for example, by appropriately configuring the &#8220;W3 Total Cache&#8221; plugin. Cache mechanisms are responsible for saving frequently used data to disk or memory and reading this data later. It is thanks to them that it is possible to speed up the generation of most pages to a few tens of milliseconds. As a result, the user is able to receive a page up to 100 times faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"installing-w3-total-cache\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Installing W3 Total Cache<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can install the W3 Total Cache plugin in cPanel or directly in WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"installation-via-cpanel\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Installation via cPanel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the main page of cPanel, select &#8220;WordPress Toolkit&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"230\" src=\"https:\/\/dotinum.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/plugin-w3-total-cache-in-cPanel.png\" alt=\"plugin w3 total cache in cPanel\" class=\"wp-image-1476\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dotinum.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/plugin-w3-total-cache-in-cPanel.png 768w, https:\/\/dotinum.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/plugin-w3-total-cache-in-cPanel-300x90.png 300w, https:\/\/dotinum.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/plugin-w3-total-cache-in-cPanel-640x192.png 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the next step, click on the &#8220;Plugins&#8221; tab and on the &#8220;Install&#8221; button<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1004\" height=\"370\" src=\"https:\/\/dotinum.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/w3-total-cachce-in-cPanel-prewviev-install.png\" alt=\"w3 total cache in cPanel prewviev install\" class=\"wp-image-1492\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dotinum.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/w3-total-cachce-in-cPanel-prewviev-install.png 1004w, https:\/\/dotinum.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/w3-total-cachce-in-cPanel-prewviev-install-300x111.png 300w, https:\/\/dotinum.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/w3-total-cachce-in-cPanel-prewviev-install-768x283.png 768w, https:\/\/dotinum.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/w3-total-cachce-in-cPanel-prewviev-install-640x236.png 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1004px) 100vw, 1004px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Type &#8220;W3 Total Cache&#8221; in the search field and confirm with the Enter key.
