Many websites go down if visitors reach a critical level. It has also happened in the past that the webhosting company decided to disable the website because of the massive traffic. Yes, that has happened to Ghacks as well in the past.

Caching can help to reduce the load which means that the server or host can serve additional visitors. It can also decrease page load times which is the obvious benefit for visitors. I decided to give the Wordpress plugin Super Cache a try. It is basically the most advanced caching plugin for Wordpress. Installation was a big difficulty because of server permissions that had to be changed to run the script properly.

The script is now working properly and I could not discover any errors or problems so far. It would be nice if you would let me know if you encounter any errors on my website so that I can fix them asap.
