How To Setup Cloudflare CDN (2022) | Tutorial

Here’s a super easy tutorial that explains how to setup a Cloudflare CDN for your WordPress Blog, or any site for that matter. Did I mention this is free?

I’ve been using AWS CloudFront for years, which is Amazon’s version of a CDN. I’ve been wanting to try out Cloudflare as it not only gives you a CDN, but also some added security features that aren’t included in CloudFront.

In this Cloudflare tutorial, we’ll cover the following topics:

1. Adding a site to Cloudflare
2. Changing your DNS entries at your domain provider to point to Cloudflare
3. Adding CDN parameters for your site
4. Reviewing some of the analytical data provided
5. Reviewing some of the security tools offered (DDoS protection and adding WAF rules)

Setup was a breeze, and you can have your site up and running on a CDN in less then 10 minutes.
