About

User experience is an important aspect of every web site and all web sites can benefit from effective caching and file size reduction. We have applied web site optimization methods typically used with high traffic sites and simplified their implementation. Coupling these methods either memcached and/or opcode caching and the CDN of your choosing to provide the following features and benefits:

Improved Google search engine ranking
Increased visitor time on site
Optimized progressive render (pages appear to render immediately)
Reduced HTTP Transactions, DNS lookups and reduced document load time
Bandwidth savings via Minify and HTTP compression of HTML, CSS, JavaScript and feeds
Increased web server concurrency and increased scale (easily sustain high traffic spikes)
Transparent content delivery network (CDN) integration with Media Library, theme files and WordPress core
Caching of pages / posts in memory or on disk
Caching of (minified) CSS and JavaScript in memory, on disk or on CDN
Caching of database objects in memory or disk
Caching of feeds (site, categories, tags, comments) in memory or on disk
Caching of search results pages (i.e. URIs with query string variables) in memory or on disk
Minification of posts / pages and feeds
Minification (concatenation and white space removal) of inline, external or 3rd party JavaScript / CSS with automated updates
Complete header management including Etags
JavaScript embedding group and location management
Import post attachments directly into the Media Library (and CDN)

Your users have less data to download, you can now server more visitors at once without upgrading your hardware and you don't have to change how you do anything; just set it and forget it.

Who do I thank for all of this?

It's quite difficult to recall all of the innovators that have shared their thoughts, code and experiences in the blogosphere over the years, but here are some names to get you started:
