Speed up wordpress using .htaccess part 1

Very simple method to speed up websites that use wordpress as backend using .htaccess methodology

Add the below stuff whatever i have given in your .htaccess file simple. :)

gzip files

gzip allows you to compress files, so obviously that means they load faster. The code below will gzip html, text, css, js and php files:

<ifModule mod_gzip.c>
  mod_gzip_on Yes
  mod_gzip_dechunk Yes
  mod_gzip_item_include file \.(html?|txt|css|js|php)$
  mod_gzip_item_include handler ^cgi-script$
  mod_gzip_item_include mime ^text/.*
  mod_gzip_item_include mime ^application/x-javascript.*
  mod_gzip_item_exclude mime ^image/.*
  mod_gzip_item_exclude rspheader ^Content-Encoding:.*gzip.*
</ifModule>

Block spammers

After stopping spammers, we’re now blocking them too! Change the line deny from 123.346 etc to include the IP of said spammer.

<Limit GET POST PUT>

order allow, deny

allow from all

deny from 123.456.789

</LIMIT>

Use PHP compression

Another compression technique, this time for PHP. At this rate, your blog will be compressed to 1kb!

# php compression – use with caution
<ifmodule mod_php4.c>
php_value zlib.output_compression 16386
</ifmodule>

Some more to be added.Will be doing that soon. Enjoy my post guys :)
One more thing always

Protect Your htaccess
# protect the htaccess file

  <files .htaccess>

  order allow,deny

  deny from all

  </files>
