No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. The recent download trend is too spiky to read.

    I was prepared to think this another poorly built piece of code soup but its logical, effective highly featured and an excellent addition to more or less any site utilising Cloudflare free layer. The free version is super and I’d love to roll out the pro version to multiple sites but at $89pa per site with no LTD version or reduction for bulk its not going to be possible as that makes it far more expensive than the WPRocket or Flying Press subscriptions. That said if you are using CF Free layer then you really should give this a try, it really is the CF plugin you have been looking for. This topic was modified 7 months, 2 weeks ago by martingfisher.

    I’m new to WordPress and Cloudflare, and I absolutely love this plugin. It has helped me to better understand Cloudflare and focus on the things that are actually relevant for me and my website. The author of this plugin replied to a support request within a few minutes, was very detailed in their response and very friendly. This topic was modified 12 months ago by Anonymous User.

    The plugin does exactly what I need, without fuss. It’s regularly updated, and the support is excellent – I’ve had a couple support “issues” that turned out to not be the plugin at all, and the author has helped me diagnose rapidly and without a flicker of complaint. Even if you’re perfectly comfortable with Cloudflare and its configuration, the R2 media hosting portion of the plugin is great and worth paying for.

    Makes it very simple to set the various Cloudflare settings, particularly the very beneficial ‘Cache pages for guests’.

    Caching is complex and configuring it through Cloudflare is a chamber of horrors, but it’s great when you get it going. This plugin helps simplify Cloudflare, and it has a guest page caching option that caches the usual, plus html, without your trying to configure Cache Everything and Bypass Cache in Rules (and then discovering you did it wrong and your site is compromised…). There’s a Purge Cache button so you don’t have to log into CF for that. You can see your basic CF metrics in the WP dashboard, and you can toggle most (maybe all?), of the settings. A Custom Purge option might be useful. The plugin is really well thought out and easy to use. Support is very prompt, very lucid, and very thorough.
