Setting Expiry for static content for browser using htaccess

open .htaccess and apply this code

this Setting “expires” tells browsers downloading these files that they don’t need to request it again for this specific length of time. In other words, use the cache instead if you have it. This can reduce stress on the server for you, and speed up page load time for visitors.
