Better user experience & SEO

Speed improvements mean users are not stuck waiting for pages to load. Additionally, better page performance can lead to better search engine rankings.

Easy setup

Download the Cloudflare plugin, create an account, answer a few questions, and your website is optimized.

Both static & dynamic content

HTML, CSS, JavaScript, plugins, and dynamic content all are served from the Cloudflare network with data centers that are geographically close to users for maximum performance.

HOW IT WORKS

Automatic Platform Optimization caches your website on Cloudflare's network

Automatic Platform Optimization serves both static and dynamic WordPress content from the Cloudflare network, reducing costly round trips to the origin server. All the communication occurs between the user’s device and Cloudflare.

The Cloudflare network is within 50 milliseconds of 95% of the Internet-connected population globally, which means content is served faster than the blink of an eye.

What our customers are saying

"By caching static HTML on Cloudflare’s edge network, we saw a 70-300% performance increase. If your WordPress site uses a traditional CDN that only caches CSS, JS, and images, upgrading to Cloudflare’s WordPress Automatic Platform Optimization (APO) is a no-brainer and will help you stay competitive with modern JAMstack and static sites that live on the edge by default."
