What are the best practices for configuring CDN on WordPress?

Follow these best practices for optimal CDN performance on WordPress:

  • Enable HTTPS and ensure proper SSL configuration
  • Configure browser caching with appropriate TTL values
  • Enable compression for static assets
  • Exclude dynamic content from CDN caching

Use the W3 Total Cache plugin for advanced CDN configuration options. Additional recommendations include:

  • Setting up proper file permissions
  • Implementing image optimization
  • Configuring proper cache invalidation rules
  • Regular monitoring of CDN performance

For multi-site networks, ensure CDN settings are properly configured for each subsite while maintaining consistent caching policies across the network.
