Have you made front page of Digg or had a crazy surge of traffic to your blog? Then you may not be realizing the benefit of the wordpress cache plugin.

Recently I made Digg front page for several of my posts. One being related to the fact that getting Dugg too much can be bad. The other related to using Digg as a marketing tool. These were just several using trial tests on the power of Digg and using social networking to your advantage to get ahead.

The loading time of your blog is of utmost importance. This is because if people have to wait for the sit to load they may get easily irritated and leave if it is the first time they are visiting and don’t see the value of your site yet. This is where the Wordpress Cache plugin comes into play.

WP-Cache is an extremely efficient WordPress page caching system to make your site load faster and become more responsive. It works by caching Wordpress pages and storing them in a static file for serving future requests directly from the file rather than loading and compiling the whole PHP code and the building the page from the database. This allows you to serve hundreds of more pages per second, and to reduce the response time from several tenths of seconds to less than a millisecond.

You can see then how this can be very effective and valuable for your visitors getting what they have come to look for faster than normal. So if you don’t have the WP Cache plugin you should get it right away HERE.

I stubmbled accross this earth clock and thought this was a very cool clock to have on a blog or a website. Unfortunately its huge and bulky but I am still making a post out of it anyways.
