  • GCoreLabs is offering FREE 1TB / month CDN, you can give them a try.

    GCore is nice pricing/PoP wise and also has some great features, but routing was wacky last time I tried them ~5 months ago. They use gDNS instead of anycast.

    Shift8 is optimized for WP and doesn't allow to create custom domain CDN, and doesn't require add a debit / credit card.

    GcoreLabs got more features, you can also use your own domain for CDN, and they require to add a debit / credit card for verification.

    Was referring to bandwidth and not the technicalities

    I was used statically + [Litespeed Cache (Disable page cache) + WP Cloudflare Super Page Cache before] they used CloudFlare CDN.

    Statically got a lot of 400 error with static resources (css, js).
    Litespeed got a lot of 404 error (not found) with static resource (css, js) and access to the website was super slow. It also generated a lot of same css / js file.

    I sometimes use it for projects. Can be quite handy.

    Keeping it simple for now and sticking with Cloudflare free tier.

    I've tested a plugin that enables real CDN function for free:
    WP Cloudflare Super Page Cache

    VERSION 4.5.1
    Change ownership to Optimole
    

    I don't believe this plugin will remain free for long.

    It's all configured to take money - like everything else.
    Right from the start.

    Everything is free... until you need a WooCommerce webshop or a multilingual website - then 99% of the plugins and themes require you to pay, or code it all yourself.

    Thanks. Uninstalled WP Super Cache and installed this one.

    For caching, I prefer LiteSpeed.
    This is my article on WordPress caching options.

    In other words: CDN sort of comes "on top," or "alongside" caching, but it doesn't replace it.
    Even with Cloudflare set up like that, I think it's a good idea to have a nicely configured website caching (and serve cached version to Cloudflare when it does any double-checking).

    A good thing with the LiteSpeed Cache plugin is that it plays rather nicely with Cloudflare, so when LiteSpeed invalidates a page, Cloudflare respects that and pulls a fresh copy (new user comment, new post in the "Latest posts" list etc.).

    I haven't given it a thorough test, but I let the Cloudflare Cache plugin run alongside the properly configured LiteSpeed Cache plugin.

    Just bought Litespeed shared hosting from ExtraVM, and installed Litespeed Cache + WP Cloudflare Super Page Cache.
    Could you please share your configurations

    Edit: I found this guide is really helpful

    LiteSpeed works fine right out of the box - so I'm giving myself the liberty to conclude it's not a matter of hours?

    I'll make an article - with screenshots. Beginner-friendly (in case any newbies need it), but in great detail, so even experts can make use of it - and correct me if I've done some configurations that aren't as close to optimal as possible.

  • @sonic - here it is (better late than never :) ).

    What's worked well for me so far. Any additions, improvements, and especially corrections are more than welcome.

    I had sent the article (and my config file) to LiteSpeed, suggesting they offer official pre-set config files for various standard setups (like WooCommerce+Elementor, no page builder websites, AMP websites etc.) for download from their servers (safer and more trustworthy than dowloading stuff from files.bikegremlin.com :) ). They liked the article and the idea.

    I see the latest update (4.3.3. from today) has "Guest Optimization" and "CCSS Per URL" both set to OFF by default, which is what's worked fine for me and is in my config. file. :)
    Edit: I don't think that's related (highly unlikely), but I take it as a confirmation of my own test results.
