WordPress websites are dynamic and have to handle multiple requests at the same time. This puts a significant load on the server resources and affects website performance. Cache plugins help with optimizing resource usage. The benefits of these plugins include faster load times, low resource usage, and enhanced user experience.

This KB gives you a brief overview of three of the most popular Cloudways-supported WordPress cache plugins that you can deploy on your WordPress website(s).
