Before proceeding further with the steps for LiteSpeed Cache installation, let’s first understand the concept of browser caching.
In simple words, whenever a user accesses any website page, some of the contents of that page are stored in the cache. If the user reaccesses this page from the same system, the browser page content will be delivered from the browser cache without a new HTTP request to the web server so the page can load faster. Additionally, a few plugins for WordPress utilize browser caching functions to make your website faster.
WordPress LiteSpeed Cache, available only if you have a LiteSpeed web server, is a site acceleration plugin that can be installed to ensure high page speed for your website. You can enable LiteSpeed from WHM directly.
