Superify your WordPress blog

Donncha O Caoimh wrote an excellent plug-in for WordPress that does a fantastic job of caching your content. Why would you want to do use something like this? Every time a visitor views one of your pages or blog posting, a lot of work including numerous database queries is done. This isn't a big deal for a site with a casual level of traffic, but if you were ever to find yourself inundated with visitors, things are going to slow down pretty quickly. On a shared server, it will not only affect your site, but the sites of others, too. WP Super Cache works by generating static HTML files which the web server can serve up much, much faster. (MovableType has always worked this way, and it makes much more sense as the content of a posting does not change frequently enough to justify dynamically-generating everything from a database on every request.)

We highly recommend (and would even prefer) that you install WP Super Cache on your blog. In fact, we'd even be happy to install it for you with your permission/request.
