W3 Total Cache : allows many settings & more control over caching, but requires a lot of technical knowledge to catch the maximum performance.
WP Super Cache : with over 2 million installs and frequent upgrades it is the most popular, friendliest & easiest to use caching plugin.
Fastest Cache : according to its developers, the WP Fastest Cache plugin is “the simplest and fastest wordpress cahing system”. WP Fastest Cache prides itself on providing an easily accessible plugin that does not even need to modify the .htaccess configuration file. The plugin uses mod_rewrite to create static HTML files in your wordpress.
Hyper Cache : is simpler to use than the above, possibly with fewer functions.
* If you are hosting your wordpress site in a DNHOST hosting package, then install the LiteSpeed Cache plugin which also supports woocommerce to speed up your eshop even more.

Other solutions:
Host your images in a subdomain
As a website loads, multiple requests leave the browsers (IE, Firefox, Opera, Mozilla, Chrome, etc.) to the domain and request service from the server. One request may be the download of images, another the download of css files and not all of the following. When it comes to requests to the same domain the browsers can not serve more than 3 at the same time, while when it comes to requests to external domains, external or internal subdomains the browsers can serve many and at the same time. So if you have your images under a subdomain of the type images.to-domain-mou.gr, you will reduce their loading time since the request will be served immediately.
