The below link is the result of Page Speed Check of my Website

If would really appreciate if any tech wizard can provide me the working code that i can implement in the .htaccess file

The code looks like it should work ok. Is the .htaccess file in the top level folder?

This is what I use for browser caching:

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
  ExpiresActive On
  ExpiresDefault                          "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType image/jpg                 "access plus 1 year"
  ExpiresByType image/gif                 "access plus 1 year"
  ExpiresByType image/png                 "access plus 1 year"
  ExpiresByType text/css                  "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType text/html                 "access plus 0 seconds"
  ExpiresByType application/javascript    "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType application/x-javascript  "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType text/javascript           "access plus 1 month"
  ExpiresByType image/x-icon              "access plus 1 year"
</IfModule>

This is the .Htaccess script used on most of my sites that achieve very good optimisation results. Pity and infuriating that adding Google Analytics and/or Google Adsense reduces the overall score from 100% :frowning:
