The embodiment of the invention provides a WEB site access acceleration method and device, and the method comprises the steps of judging whether agency is passed or not according to a preset URL agency rule if a URL request is detected; if yes, judging whether the request content exists in a local resource cache or not; and if so, obtaining the requested content from the local resource cache. According to the method, whether agency is passed or not is judged according to the preset URL agency rule, agency acceleration does not need to be carried out on all the content, and the situation that agency-free flow is sent into the agency server, and resource consumption of the agency server is increased is avoided. If the request content exists in the local resource cache, the request content isacquired from the local resource cache, and the content does not need to be requested from the proxy server, so that the load overhead of the proxy server is further reduced, the request blockage isavoided, the user experience of proxy access can be remarkably improved, meanwhile, the frequency of acquiring data from a proxy is reduced, and the data security and privacy are improved.
