Hi sviau,
Thanks for posting in the community!
From your description, you have an ASP.NET site which will generate dynamic
pages to users such as a search system. And since the Search result are
contant, so you'd like to cache them,yes?
If there is anything I misunderstood, please feel free to let me know.
Based on my experience, for your situation that those page are dynamically
generated via the user's input or some certain params,yes? There are two
means you can take:
1. Using the serverside outputcache provided by the ASP.NET
The ASP.NET's output cache can cache a certain page's certain version on
the serveside's memory, the version can be determined via different ways,
for example, querystring, time period, or event custom controling it. Thus,
when the ASP.NET detect that a certain version of the same request is
cached before, it'll directly returned the reponse retrieved from server's
cache rather than generated it again. I'm sure this is very wonderful for
some search system which need to cache pages for different search
querystrings, do you think so? And here are some tech reference on ASP.NET
outputcache, you may have a view to see whether it helps you.

2. Using the user's client browser's cache ability.
In addition to ASP.NET's page cache ability, generally the client browser
will also cache a certain page on the clientside, we can set the http
header of the response. And here are also some tech articles on this:
