3.Cache

The third and last trick is Caching. Caching is a great thing that makes your website faster. In this case, when the the page loads in to the browser, it saves a copy of images, stylesheets, javascripts or the entire page. Therefore, the next time when the user needs to load that pages, the browser doesn’t have to download it again. It loads from saved Resources. But some times it creates problem. Suppose if you have old logo in you webpage and it was saved on the cache file. Now you have changed the logo but the URL of logo is same therefore when you load the page, you can see that always the old logo is loads. But don't worry it is not a problem now, so enjoy your faster  websites.
