WordPress vs Headless CMS: Proven B2B Choice to Avoid Risk

The headless debate stalls more B2B website projects than any other, and it usually stalls on the wrong question. This guide takes the decision apart along the dimensions a B2B company actually feels: five-year total cost of ownership with the arithmetic shown, how quickly a marketer can publish without raising a developer ticket, what breaks when the person who built it leaves, and who carries the risk when procurement sends a security questionnaire.

How To Set Up WordPress with W3 Total Cache on Lighttpd Server

This article will show you how to setup WordPress on the Lighttpd web server with the popular caching plugin W3 Total Cache. It is assumed that you already have setup a LLMP stack and have PHP functioning with Lighttpd. We’ll be doing a lot of manual configuration to make minify and page cache work with Lighttpd, as W3 Total Cache doesn’t support this web server out of the box (as it does with Apache and Nginx).
