How do I clear my cache?
Most Internet browsers (like Microsoft Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari) maintain what is called a cache. A cache can help websites load faster by storing portions of websites on your computer's hard drive. While this helps loading speed, it can often result in you not seeing the latest updated version of your site.
Clearing your cache every so often will help insure you are seeing the latest updates on your site.
