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.

    I’ve tried to use the cloudflare rewrite url feature to apply cloudflare images on my featured images, but it didn’t work. So i used grok, ask him how i could use images on my website. it said this plugin would be helpful. I tried it and it really worked!

    At first I wondered why Cloudflare Image Resizing never seemed to work. Turns out, it is NOT automatic. This plugin immediately started working and thanks to CF resizing I’m saving a huge amount of bandwidth from these resizes (my other CDN claims to do resizing, but apparently not well). Very simple to set up and immediately starts working once it is, all you really need to make your site faster if you upload very large source images.

    I just wanted to write this review to thank the developer. Using Cloudflare workers requires lots of code understanding. Thank you for developing a simple plugin that just integrates into cloudflare and does this automatically for us. Much much appreciated
