LiteSpeed Cache Preload Links | Guide

The Litespeed Cache preload links feature in the LiteSpeed Cache plugin lets us optimize the performance of our website by preloading specific links or URLs.

The main goal of this feature is to make sure that critical resources or pages are preloaded. This helps improve website speed and user experience.

In other words, the Litespeed Cache preload links feature lets us specify certain links or URLs that have to be preloaded. Preloading these links involves pushing the web browser to fetch and load these resources ahead of when they are needed by the web page.

In fact, this approach reduces the delay in accessing these resources and also speeds up page loading.

Let’s take a look at some of the benefits of preloading links and resources:

• Preloading important links make sure that they are immediately available as and when needed. This reduces any delays in rendering a page.
• Faster-loading pages offer a better user experience, as visitors no longer have to wait for resources to download.
• By preloading important resources, we can improve the overall performance and load times of our website.

How to enable Link Preloading

1. First, log in to the website’s admin dashboard.
2. Then, head to the settings for the LiteSpeed Cache plugin.
3. Next, find the option that lets us enable link preloading. It may be labeled as “Preload Links,” “Link Preloading,” or something similar.
4. Once we enable the feature, we will see a field where we have to enter the links or URLs that we want to preload. We can also enter URLs for specific resources we want to preload. These resources are often CSS, JavaScript, etc.
5. Now, save the settings by clicking Save.

Furthermore, our experts recommend clearing the cache after enabling the link preloading feature. Now, verify the steps were successful by visiting our website and making sure that the specified links are preloaded as expected. Sometimes js files may cause conflicts or display issues. We can learn how to exclude JS files from the LiteSpeed cache at this link.
