Oh, forgot to mention...

You can also try <meta http-equiv="Expires" content="0" />.

It means the page immediately expires in the cache. This way, the
browser should always consider using the cache as a bad choice and
always fetch the page from the server instead.

But that's more like a hack, and not a "real" solution (abuse of
"Expires" meta tag).
