Word Press Cache

[mmaes]

I'm looking to install a word press caching plugin to help speed up my site.

My question is which plugin or method is best practice to insure my ranking are not hurt?

Thanks

Do you really need one? If so WP Super Cache is pretty great. I don't think most sites need it though.

I agree with Roger, though I did initially struggle with Super Cache. In the end I opted to manual configure Gzip compression and caching rules in my HT Access file.

Check out this page which has some info on Cache and Gzip

Search for gzip in your plugins page

If your site is heavy on images, you can always ensure they are all correctly optimised. This will ensure minimum file size, thus quicker dowload times.
