Free Audit: Caching Setup
Reply < 4 hCaching Setup
Caching is the biggest single speed win for most sites, and the easiest to get wrong: stale pages, broken carts, logged-in users seeing someone else’s content. We set up each caching layer properly, with the right exceptions and a purge that works when you publish.
What’s included
Redis installation and tuning
WordPress Redis object cache
PHP OPcache tuning
Nginx FastCGI page cache
LiteSpeed Cache configuration
Bypass rules for logged-in users and carts
Automatic purge on publish
Browser cache headers
Gzip / Brotli compression
CDN cache rules
WooCommerce compatibility
Hit-rate monitoring
The layers of caching
Opcode cacheOPcache keeps compiled PHP in memory so code isn’t recompiled on every request.
Object cacheRedis or Memcached stores database query results and sessions.
Page cacheWhole pages served straight from Nginx or LiteSpeed, without PHP.
Browser and CDNStatic files cached close to your visitors and in their browsers.

Service FAQ
Not when it’s set up properly. Cart, checkout and account pages, and logged-in users, bypass the page cache.
Redis for most setups: it’s more flexible and survives restarts. Memcached is fine for simple object caching.
Plugins work inside WordPress. Server-level caching (OPcache, Redis, FastCGI) is faster and works alongside the plugin.
No. Purge-on-publish clears the affected pages automatically.
