Speed Up Your Site with Cloudflare Cache Rules & Edge TTL
Cloudflare's cache rules let you control how long assets stay fresh. Combine them with strategies from Improving Page Speed for optimal results.
Why Cache Rules Matter
Cache rules dictate when content is served from the edge versus your origin. Short TTLs keep dynamic sections fresh.
Setting Edge TTL
Use the dashboard or API to define Edge TTLs. Longer TTLs benefit static assets that rarely change.
Bypassing Dynamic Routes
Configure bypass rules for logged-in areas or APIs. This avoids serving personalized content from cache.
Cache Busting Strategies
Append version strings to file names or use the purge API. For more site structure tips, read Internal Linking Strategies.
