Caching stores static versions of your website, reducing server load and drastically improving response times across our multi-server infrastructure.

Before You Begin

  • An active instance on the Websitely cloud platform.

Enabling Caching

  1. Go to my.websitely.com and login to your account.
  2. Select your instance and navigate to Site Settings > Performance.
  3. Toggle the Server-Side Caching switch to Enabled.
  4. The system will automatically configure the caching layer across all relevant cloud nodes.

Best Practices

  • Clear your cache whenever you make significant design or content changes to ensure visitors see the latest updates.
  • Use server-side caching instead of multiple third-party plugins to prevent performance conflicts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does caching affect dynamic content?

Caching mainly affects static assets. Dynamic elements like shopping carts or user-specific accounts are typically excluded automatically.
