What are the optimal settings for low-traffic WooCommerce site?

    I noticed a lot of the cache settings are in seconds and typically expire within minutes. My site is fairly low traffic, with maybe 20 visitors a day, so more likely than not visitors won’t benefit from a cache with a short expiration, unless they’re browsing the site for longer periods. But the front page and product views need to load fast or I am loosing customers.

    What would you recommend for this type of traffic pattern?

    Hello @dannydandan123

    Thank you for your inquiry and I am happy to assist you with this.
    The cache does not expire within the minutes. The lowest set Browser Cache TTL is 3600s which is one hour and that is for HTML&XML.
    The default values are the most optimal values for most websites.
    You are referring to Browser Cache settings. If you enable Page Cache, that page will remain cached on your server and will be served from the cache to the users unless you change content or purge the cache. Once the page is visited it will be cahced again.
    So the HTML will remain cached in Browser for users for an hour but it will still be served as a cached version from the server.
    To conclude, you should use the default settings as those settings are optimal for most websites.
    Thanks!
