Best Content Delivery Network Strategy for new WordPress Site

[ad_1]

Hello, I am looking to move my Drupal 7 site to WordPress. I self host my site on my own cloud server through Host For Web. I use Cloudflare for my CDN.

WordPress is new to me and I am planning the site starting with the CDN and host. I see there are a number of WordPress specific hosts such as Bluehost that host WordPress sites and have their own CDN.

I run an editorial and news site and Core Web Vitals and article search rankings is vital to our business.

Should I use a WordPress specific host like Bluehost and use their CDN, or should I house the WordPress site on my own server and continue to use Cloudlfare?

Cloudflare offers Cloudflare images where you can offload optimized AVIF images to the their CDN, plus they have a bunch of custimizations to optimize various aspects of our site, like ZARAZ which offloads 3rd party tools to the cloud like Google Analytics, social share plugins, Youtube imbedds, etc.

It has Rocketloader for speeding up javascript and many more speed optimizations.

Not sure if I will lose these speed optimizations if I am committed to using the hosts, like Bluehost’s CDN.

Appreciate any help.
