Question

I have recently analysed my website with pagespeed addon on firebug. It suggested me to set expiration on CSS, JS and image files.

I am wondering, how do I do this?

Answer 1

This is the one I use to fix the exact same thing when I ran the PageSpeed Addon:

<FilesMatch "\.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|swf)$">
    Header set Cache-Control "max-age=604800, public"
</FilesMatch>

This goes into your .htaccess file.

Read up on this page for more information about how to set cache for additional file types and/or change the cache length:
