Setting Up a WordPress CDN

A Content Delivery Network (CDN) distributes your site's static files globally, reducing load times for international visitors and reducing bandwidth on your server.

Using Cloudflare CDN (Free)

Cloudflare is the easiest CDN to set up β€” just update your nameservers. Cloudflare automatically caches static assets. Install the Cloudflare WordPress plugin to enable automatic cache purging when you publish content.

LiteSpeed Cache CDN Integration

LiteSpeed Cache integrates with Cloudflare and other CDN providers. In the plugin, go to LiteSpeed Cache > CDN, enable the CDN feature, and enter your Cloudflare API credentials for automatic cache management.

Rewriting Asset URLs

Some CDN configurations require rewriting your static asset URLs to point to the CDN domain (e.g., cdn.yourdomain.com/wp-content/...). LiteSpeed Cache and W3 Total Cache both support CDN URL rewriting built in.
