Learn what static caching is, why it’s important, and how you can easily use it to speed up your website.

Static content is any content that does not require modification before displaying to the user. In simple terms, sites that implement static caching actually have two web servers, the main one that is capable of running PHP scripts to generate the web pages, and a second one that does not have PHP and only serves cached content.

SiteGround takes the concepts of static content caching to the next level with its “Nginx Direct Delivery”. Nginx Direct Delivery provides important benefits – it improves browser based caching, provides an easier and more efficient usage of a content delivery network, and frees up RAM that can be used for dynamic content caching, without compromising on static content loading speed.
