Faster pages, a safer site and a quieter server.
Faster for everyone, everywhere
The whole page is cached at the edge, so the visitor’s request ends near them instead of at your server.

Cloudflare’s managed rules, rate limiting and bot checks stop bad traffic before it reaches your site.

Cached pages never reach WordPress. Your server only answers what the edge can’t: carts, checkouts and logged-in visits.
Tiered Cache edge locations ask each other firstWhat happens when the edge serves the page.
We probed 1,748 WordPress sites and compared the ones whose edge answers with the ones that have no CDN.

Start setup
A minuteIn xSpeed Cache → Network → Cloudflare Enterprise, press Start setup. It first checks your domain resolves, isn’t already behind Cloudflare and loads over HTTPS. Edge page caching is on by default.
-
Verify your domain
About 15 minutesAdd a TXT record and a CNAME record at your DNS provider. The plugin checks them for you and moves on by itself. Keep both afterwards: your SSL certificate renews through them.
-
Connect your site
Up to an hour for DNSPoint your website’s record at Cloudflare, with a CNAME or A records. The plugin shows the exact values.

You’re all set

21 things included, on every domain.
Whole pages cached at the edge
Cloudflare keeps the full page, not just images and scripts, and serves it from a location near the visitor.
Cleared when you publish
Updating a post clears those pages on Cloudflare as well as on your server. Purge All clears both.
Follows your Page Cache rules
Cloudflare keeps a page as long as your Page Cache expiry says, and never stores a page you exclude.
Tiered Cache
Cloudflare locations ask each other before your server, so fewer requests reach WordPress.
HTTP/3
Newer connections that set up quicker.
Brotli and Early Hints
Smaller transfers (Brotli, always on), and with Early Hints switched on the browser starts fetching CSS while the page is still on its way.
Image optimization
Off, lossless or lossy, done by Cloudflare at the edge.
Always Online
If your server goes down, visitors can still see a saved copy of your pages.
Managed firewall (WAF)
Cloudflare’s managed rules block known attacks before they reach WordPress.
Rate limiting
Limits any address that sends more than 200 requests a minute.
AI crawler blocking
One switch keeps AI scrapers off your content.
Browser integrity check
Turns away requests from known bad bots.
Under attack mode
A check page for every visitor, for the hours you are under attack.
Scrape shield
Hides email addresses from harvesters.
SSL included
Cloudflare issues and renews the certificate. Pick Modern, Compatible or Legacy ciphers.
Run from WordPress
Set up, purge and change every switch from xSpeed Cache. No Cloudflare account, no second login.
WP-CLI
wp xspeed cfe status, enable, purge, verify and more.
AI agents
Your agent can purge on its own. Enabling, removing or re-pointing a domain stays with you.
Multisite
The main site sets it up; subdomain and mapped sites each count as a domain.
Safe for stores
Cart, checkout, account and logged-in pages are never stored at Cloudflare.
See it working
The Domain tab checks your home page and tells you when it is served from Cloudflare.
