Rule 3 - Add an Expires Header
 Examples  1  2 
Example 2 - Far Future Expires

Roundtrip response time:

This example contains six images, three scripts and one stylesheet that do have a far future Expires header. Load the page several times using the "try it again" link and compare the response time to Example 1 - No Expires. This example is faster because it uses the cache thus avoiding ten additional HTTP requests.
