This is why Fastest Cache is very likely the best caching plugin out there

  • There is a reason that this plugin gets such good reviews. I have been nothing but impressed by it.

    I have tried most of the caching plugins available one by one and I found none as effective in terms of an actual improvement in page speed as Fastest Cache. It is also certainly the easiest and most straightforward to use (Some of the plugins have an outrageous number of pages of settings and warnings and instructions. Who has the time and patience to agonize through that to get a plugin to do a half decent job?).

    With once off pricing (as opposed to a subscription) I think it might be the most cost effective too for the premium version (which I highly recommend).

    Even with the free version I saw a significant increase in the speed of our site.
    However, currently we have the premium version and at last I can rest easy knowing that our Pagespeed and Yslow ratings are both in the green zone (both up to above 80 from about 70 and below). And we went from sometimes nearing 10 seconds for a complete load to just over 3 seconds. Sure, we did some other minor optimizations to but it is mostly thanks to this plugin.

    The reason I struggled with speed optimization is that I manage a site that requires certain complexities like external widgets (which can be disastrous for page speed) but this plugin takes it all in its stride. For example, the premium version has built in widget caching (one of the biggest selling points for us).

    My recommendation is to try this plugin first and simply save yourself the pain of wading through the rest.
