Increase website performance with Leverage browser caching

Are your website take too much time to load.

The leverage browser caching warning, as shown below in the screenshot, is referring to your browser cache. Whenever you visit a website, it downloads assets, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript and images into your browser’s local cache. This way it doesn’t have to retrieve them on every page load. The warning itself is returned when your web server, or a third party server, doesn’t have the correct HTTP cache headers implemented. Or the headers might exist, but the cache time is set too short.

you can test your web site current status with  PINGDOM WEB SITE

then simply add this script to your root .htaccess file :)
