CDN for Webflow
Keep Webflow for design. Add an edge you operate.
Marketing teams on Webflow often need a delivery layer they can purge, shield and combine with other origins — especially when Webflow is exported, reverse-proxied, or mixed with application hostnames.
Use Cloud CDN in front of the Webflow host or the static export origin. Cache HTML, assets and imagery globally, and keep form posts or app routes on the correct origin.
Why teams use Aptranet
What CDN for Webflow looks like on this network.
Cloud CDN caches and accelerates eligible content on 210+ points of presence, with Origin Shield when the origin must stay out of the way.
Marketing pages at 210+ locations
Exported or proxied Webflow pages are served with 30 ms average latency instead of a single publishing origin.
Campaign imagery on demand
Transform hero and CMS images at the edge without re-exporting every breakpoint from Webflow.
Mix Webflow with application origins
Bind more than one origin to a distribution when landing pages and the product app share a hostname space.
How to set it up
A cutover you can validate before DNS moves.
Create the Cloud CDN configuration, prove it on an Aptranet hostname, then point production DNS when the path looks correct.
- 1Choose export or reverse proxy
Pull from a static export bucket/host or from the Webflow site origin, depending on how you publish.
- 2Cache pages and assets
Give immutable assets long TTLs. Cache HTML with a TTL you can purge on publish.
- 3Keep forms and apps correct
Send form posts and application paths to the origin that owns them.
- 4Map the campaign domain
Attach the marketing hostname and certificate, then purge on each Webflow publish.
Outcomes
What changes once the hostname is on Aptranet.
- Webflow pages are cached on the Aptranet edge
- Publish can purge HTML without waiting on TTL alone
- Images can be adapted per layout at delivery time
- Application origins can sit beside the marketing origin

Frequently Asked Questions
Use Cloud CDN when you export, reverse-proxy, need independent purge and logs, or want Webflow behind the same edge as other origins.
Purge the published paths after Webflow finishes publishing. Do not cache Editor or design-mode hosts.
POST endpoints should go to Webflow or your form handler, not to a cached GET response.
Yes. Use a managed Let's Encrypt certificate or upload a custom certificate on the distribution.
