What are the caveats of using CloudFlare CDN service?

Back

Some caveats and limitation of enabling CloudFlare CDN service for your website:

  1. Your web statistics might not reflect the actual number of visitors to your site, because some of the requests are handled by CloudFlare CDN nodes and not handled by your web server directly.
  2. Because CloudFlare CDN nodes cache static contents from your website, any changes to your content might not be reflected immediately when your visitors visit your page.
  3. CloudFlare CDN service will only handle requests going to www.[YOUR-DOMAIN], while requests going to [YOUR-DOMAIN] would normally still be handled by your web server.
  4. CloudFlare CDN service (the free plan) doesn't support SSL.
