Cloudflare offers a widely used free CDN and security layer for websites.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>DNS <\/strong>&ndash; Cloudflare is one of the fastest DNS providers (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dnsperf.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">data<\/a>), which can speed up your site&rsquo;s time to first byte (<a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/time-to-first-byte\/\">TTFB<\/a>) a lot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Security rules <\/strong>&ndash; Cloudflare lets you set up custom security rules to secure specific parts of your site, like your WordPress dashboard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>DDoS protection <\/strong>&ndash; Cloudflare can help you <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-ddos-protection\/\">protect against distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks<\/a>. It can also help you just generally filter out malicious traffic.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Other performance benefits <\/strong>&ndash; Cloudflare can help you <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-minify-plugins\/\">minify your code<\/a>, enable Brotli compression, and implement other performance best practices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading joli-heading jtoc-heading\" id=\"how-to-set-up-cloudflare-for-wordpress\">How to set up Cloudflare for WordPress &#129300;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you can start configuring the other options in Cloudflare, you need to connect your site to Cloudflare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Long story short:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order for Cloudflare to work, it needs to be able to manage your domain&rsquo;s <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/nameserver\/\">nameservers<\/a> so that it can serve up cached content from its CDN and filter out malicious actors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To do that, you&rsquo;ll need to change your domain&rsquo;s nameservers to Cloudflare, which is what most of the basic setup process entails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&rsquo;s how to do it:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-default\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:15px;border-color:#4267cf\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading joli-heading jtoc-heading\" id=\"1-create-your-free-cloudflare-account\">1.

When you switch to Cloudflare&rsquo;s nameservers, Cloudflare is able to direct traffic to your website. It uses this power to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Filter out malicious traffic &ndash; it will send regular traffic to your website just like normal, while filtering out malicious actors before they can reach your site.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Deliver static content from the closest server in its huge global network (the CDN part)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>How you will change your nameservers depends on where you registered your domain name.

You just set up Cloudflare to take care of your website and work behind the curtains to make your site much faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The core steps of the process are now done, but we can actually go much further and configure your WordPress setup to take full advantage of Cloudflare and all its abilities. The thing is that, by default, WordPress doesn&rsquo;t have any specific customizations or settings for proper Cloudflare integration. Luckily, there are a few ways to make it all work, depending on whether you want to use Cloudflare&rsquo;s official plugin\/APO route or a third-party full-page caching plugin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this next section, I&rsquo;m going to show you one optional route: using the Super Page Cache plugin to make your WordPress website work better with Cloudflare&rsquo;s caching features.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-dotted\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:1px;border-color:#999999\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading joli-heading jtoc-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-10x-your-cloudflare-setup-and-go-to-sub-1-second-load-times\">How to 10x your Cloudflare setup and go to sub-1-second load times &#128640;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We&rsquo;re going to use the free <a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wp-cloudflare-page-cache\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Super Page Cache<\/a> plugin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&rsquo;s a third-party option that can set some custom Cloudflare optimizations for your site and let you hook up to Cloudflare&rsquo;s CDN edge network and advanced caching.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&rsquo;d rather stick with Cloudflare&rsquo;s own ecosystem, you can also explore the official Cloudflare WordPress plugin and APO path instead. Super Page Cache is simply one good optional route if you want fuller page caching from WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What this means in plain English is that Cloudflare will take your site&rsquo;s content and deliver it to your visitors through its own network of servers, which results in much faster load times and thus better overall experience for your audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The installation is very simple:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"su-divider su-divider-style-default\" style=\"margin:40px 0;border-width:15px;border-color:#4267cf\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading
