A web cache is like a big box in which web pages are stored that have already been visited by people. When someone visits a website, the web pages for that website are stored in the web cache. Whenever someone wants to look at that website again, the web pages are pulled from the web cache instead of from the main website, which is faster. The web cache also helps to save internet data, because the web pages are already stored and don't need to be downloaded from the main website again.
