Cloudflare Cache Checker

About Cloudflare Cache

Cloudflare Cache is a feature provided by Cloudflare, a content delivery network (CDN) and distributed DNS (Domain Name System) service. It helps improve the performance and security of websites by caching content closer to users and protecting against various online threats.

When enabled, Cloudflare Cache stores copies of static content, such as images, CSS files, and JavaScript files, on its servers distributed across multiple data centers around the world. This allows Cloudflare to deliver cached content to users more quickly, reducing load times and improving website performance.

Additionally, Cloudflare Cache helps reduce the load on origin servers by serving cached content to users, offloading traffic and reducing server load. It also provides various caching settings and optimizations to further enhance website performance and caching behavior.

Why Check Cloudflare Cache?

It's essential to check the status of Cloudflare cache to ensure that your website is delivering content efficiently to users. By monitoring cache status, you can identify if Cloudflare caching is working as expected, helping you optimize website performance and user experience.

If Cloudflare cache is not working properly, it may result in slower load times and increased server load. This can negatively impact user experience and website performance, leading to lower search engine rankings and decreased visitor retention.

Troubleshooting Cloudflare Cache

If Cloudflare cache is not working as expected, there are several troubleshooting steps you can take:

• Check Cloudflare settings: Ensure that caching is enabled and configured correctly in your Cloudflare dashboard.
• Clear Cloudflare cache: Try clearing the cache in your Cloudflare dashboard to force Cloudflare to fetch fresh content from your origin server.
• Check origin server headers: Verify that your origin server is sending appropriate cache-control headers to instruct Cloudflare on how to cache content.
• Test with different URLs: Test cache status with different URLs to identify if caching issues are specific to certain pages or resources.

Understanding Cloudflare Cache Headers

When you use our Cloudflare Cache Checker, you'll see several important headers in the results:

• CF-Cache-Status: This header indicates the cache status of your request. Common values include:
  • HIT: The resource was served from Cloudflare's cache.
  • MISS: The resource was not in Cloudflare's cache and was fetched from the origin server.
  • EXPIRED: The resource was in the cache but had expired and was revalidated.
  • BYPASS: The cache was bypassed due to a cache control directive.
  • DYNAMIC: The resource was not eligible for caching.
• Cache-Control: This header specifies directives for caching mechanisms in both requests and responses.
• Expires: This header contains the date/time after which the response is considered stale.
• Age: This header indicates how long the object has been in a proxy cache in seconds.
• CF-RAY: A unique identifier for the request through Cloudflare.
